    Texas to Daytona trip

    You could check out Wakulla Springs. Considering the lack of options in the area it's pretty nice with lots of history. I stayed at Wakulla Springs Lodge on a trip to see the annual Monarch butterfly migration a few months ago. It's right on the coast with lots of scenery and a beautiful...

    Daytona IMSA test highlight video

    At full roar the Ford GT sounds like Death From Above. It definitely has an exotic sound to it, very distinctive from the rest of the field. Deceleration and downshift noises are terrifying, like this BMF: Any other A10 geeks out there? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvIJvPj_pjE

    Hi Francis, How is the planning for LeMans 2016 coming along? I know that probably 100 or more of us here in the USA are planning to attend the festivities and show support for the new GT next June, it sure would be nice to meet up and have a few beers.

    Viper ACR / New ford GT

    I imagine there will be quite a few press cars out there when the time comes. Ford won't let this opportunity pass without kicking the ass out of all the competitors.
