In the following publication . . . This was on page 123 . . . . Pete S. . . . of course they made a mistake, or two, and the Equipe logo is not on my car, but it doesn't look that bad. I have never heard of them, Equipe, just happened to get a call from a fellow local FGT owner who was...

1FA F P90 S 0 5 Y 400001 The first 3 numbers (1FA) are the world manufacture identifier. The second (F) in this case, is the restraint system code, active safety belts, all positions, driver and passenger air bags, in this case. The third set (P90) indicate vehicle...

KING FROG, I always offer my help in any way. As for the dash and gauges, I have replaced a gauge on my car following advice and precautions of or great list of forum experts: it is not that tough, so long as you are careful. Reputable is hard to find in this area as 99.9 out of 100 Ford...

Just want to throw this onto the forum for any in this general area who'd like to get a bit more track time in. The next place I am heading is the July 14-15 event at Watkins Glenn: https://www.trackmasters.com/Page.asp?Script=1 Another consideration is with the Northern Virginia Corvette...

I'd better get in on this as well. 1 more in, please. Pete S.

Here is another video just in from this event: http://www.streetfire.net/video/vir-2010-with-scmc_2027428.htm Pete S.

I am slightly taller, and could not sit in the car with a helmet on until I removed the seat, brought it to a reputable shop, and had them remove some foam padding. What else? Seat harnesses are nice, not only from a safety standpoint but they aid "planting" the driver in position avoiding...

I agree, Dave's modifications worked very well. And I admit to ending my final session a few laps early; as it was out there in 3 consecutive sessions; twice by me and the middle by an instructor in the Blue group. So sure, the temp approached limp mode, and I would back it down for a lap or 2...

MIKE ON THE NORTH COURSE, IN HIS 2006 4 PARTS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvknyIh_nbs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iukEe0nCyew http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bJQeQ-efrc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leyqrutD2GQ Pete S.

No. Gino was in that fantastic FR 500 S. His FGT was at Carlisle. Properly modded for the next track day. If I have time, I hope to incorporate a few tricks and mods used by Dave and Gino to improve my cars dynamics. Pete S.

Very minimal damage is good. There is only one part of the entire video I would change; it is almost the last thing that happens: when you get into the pits I see and hear the emergency brake! Yikes! An ex-Nascar and road racer broke me of that habbit many years ago, especailly when tracking and...

Only had a limited time to spend at Carlisle yesterday, but snapped a few photos: http://home.comcast.net/~fordgtofmaryland/Carlisle.htm Pete S.

A knowledgable race mechanic on this forum suggested that driving to the limits of the Goodyears before switching to the Hoosiers or anything else was a good idea. I always bring the Goodyears for those events that turn into rain events. Absolutely nothing better than learning in the rain on a...

Though I may agree here, I always enjoy when Joey does post. Joey, I should be driving up for a visit tomorrow: well, later today, after a nap. Hope to be able to pull in somewhere near the other fairly high milage and track-worn FGT section; but it looks a bit cleaner than it did on Monday...

Gino, this is a ford gt forum. How would it look if I posted the video of you always pulling away from me? You do have one of the ultimate track cars in that FR! Of course, I would prefer the GT for both street and track. Here are a few more of the 'still shots'. The videos I have looked at so...

Gino was cleaning the road debris from sonic blue after a few hard laps . . . Seriously, I will get him in the mix when I have a moment to sort the photos out a bit better. His car, and Daves, and Mikes, were flying. They are all very good on the track. Pete S.

A few photos of Dave, Mike and me. http://1fordgt.com/2010/CARS/SVTCOBRAMUSTANGCLUB/2010VIRSTILLS/AVIR3706.JPG http://1fordgt.com/2010/CARS/SVTCOBRAMUSTANGCLUB/2010VIRSTILLS/AVIR3707.JPG http://1fordgt.com/2010/CARS/SVTCOBRAMUSTANGCLUB/2010VIRSTILLS/AVIR3708.JPG...
