At the Speed TV website, under programs, they show a picture of a red GT w/white stripes, upgraded wheels and red calipers. There is not much information about what the show is all about that I could find.

I've seen the commercials, and it's about photographing automobiles in general. Will cover stills and video stuff, but I don't know how long a series like this will last. Of course they picked red/white. It's the best color.

Now who would put a trailer on a GT, that makes no sense :wink

F - if you twist up a red/white GT it will look just like a candy cane.

Not that I'm biased - Tungsten. All the way.

The red GT featured on the new program "Shooting Cars" is actually 1442 owned by myself. I am the principal of that show and I will feature 1442 as much as I can on this show.....the show is not about picture taking... but about what it takes to modify a car (any car) to do a particular scene in a movie...including wrecking, blowing up, or flipping over......it tells about all the modifications, then it shows how they work, and finally what the public sees in a film.............One of the more interesting shows we just completed is episode 5 which will feature 5 brand new Shelby's gt500.....racing around new york city and doing all kinds of crazy things (like jumping out of a showroom window) and all the damages that these cars suffer because of it.

It can be very interesting to car guys like us.. I would love for you guys to give it a look and let me know what you think about it... I will of course accept any comments or suggestions.....after all I am one of you...

Gino Lucci

P.S. With a little computer tuning on one of the shelby's I have the chart to prove 482.1 horse power to the rear wheels....that I think is awsome....

Gino, I watched it twice that night on Speed. Thought it was great. I have red/white also. Just so you know, Bony let's girls ON his car all the time because it's all white and has no stripes so you can't see the dents. I'm looking forward to watching the series. Are there going to be any scenes of cars going into/out of the rivers or ocean? Need any body parts for scenes?

Dr Pikul, you have to dispose of your mistakes the right way and accept the fact that you made a msitake.

Gino - He's like a kid who broke a toy and in order not to get in trouble - he hid it :banana

Gino is the owner of the red Ford Gt in the show. He was the one that told me about this forum a few months back. A very nice guy and is ate up with the cars just like all of us. Bob G.

Well actually, that was meant to mean CAR BODY PARTS you guys. Gino, I'm a pathologist with a sense of humor (no CSI type of stuff though). But I'm sure if you need an extra arm or leg, etc., something could be arranged. There's only a federal ban on fetal tissue for transplant/stem cell culture. I have made some friends in Brighton Beach though.

Thanks Bony.....and i will keep you in mind if we need a "best boy".....i wonder if anyone really knows what a "best boy" is? On the 5th and final episode(then a negotiation with speed for 8 more hopefully) you will see some stunts with the new shelby's and in one very quick moment the GT at speed.....hope you guys like it.. will keep you posted for one episode where i can devote more to the GT...

Gino

P.S. Hey Doc....i knew what you meant about body parts.....hopefully we wont need any.. (got plenty of wrecked shelby parts anyone for souveniers? lol)
