Ray Hofman sets new World Record.

[ChipBeck]

Gentlemen,

Our good friend Ray Hofman just ran 266.9 mph in the standing mile into a direct 18 mph headwind at the Exotics Rally in Florida. He bested the world record of 255 set earlier today by the Performance Power GT by 11 mph!!!

Congrats to Jason Heffner & crew as well.

Unreal! Give Ray a few more runs and the guy will be in the 270's!

Considering the strong headwind, that is unbelievable!

Congrats to Ray, Heffner and the rest of the team!

Does anybody know how far his gears would stretch out? With a tail wind he would be in the 270s. It looks like the GT just changed all the rules of the game. Tell the Lamborghini boys to hit the reset button.

That had to be a sight to behold let alone drive.

The Ford GT is the one car by which all others are judged...... including the Bugatti Veyron :usa

Thanks to Ray Hoffman and Jason Heffner the re-sale value of our GT's just went up another 10 grand :cheers
