Jeff, this is my car going down the straight slowly catching the other FGT in the advanced/instructors session; of course since I am holding the camera, I am not behind the wheel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwyC7xric0c . Eventually, I will go through the in car camera, slower laps with me...

Good reading this post about another great day at a track. It was a bit hotter in New Jersey over the weekend and my temps rose to 230 + pushing a bit of fluid out the cap, but it cleans up easily enough. And you are right, these cars are a blast to drive. I think I was burning well over a...

The quick answer for me is no, it conflicts with nothing. I cannot recall the dates of the Rally, but here is some of the info for the VIR event: SCMC and Super Stang Fest -- Alton, VA -- October 17-18, 2009 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Can never know how many FGT's will be at any event from time to time, but there should be several at VIR in October. Again, though I really enjoy the advice of the experts, it's tough to say who else would want it. I think if you signed on with the SCMC as an instructor, as a FGT owner, they...

That seemed to be about the only slight negative in the Orange group, there were some folks who seemed to think it was a "race" instead of what it was. Some drivers never gave a point bye to me after leaning on them for 2 laps; I just gave up turning into the pits and creating enough space to...

Well, I do believe a great time was had by Bill, Mark, Jim & Carl as we all burned quite a bit of fuel turning laps on New Jersey Motorsports Park’s Thunderbolt track. I know it was fun for me. With only about 6 cars in their run group, Bill and Mark followed each other around the track with no...

. . . . and that should look really good if the video is on. Jeff, have a great weekend my friend. BTW, wasn't the Faulken car going to Road America this weekend? Pete S.

I might give that advice out as well; but having done 2 days on track at Carolina Motorsports Park early in the year where the temp rose to 39 on Saturday and 42 on Sunday, I can say a whole bunch can be learned on a wet and puddled track. Though not recommended, still fun. Pete S.

Looks like a good turnout for a track event in NJ as we have 4 FGT's here for the duration of the 2 days, and another for one run session tomorrow. Hopefully we can all get out and run some laps together and produce a few nice photos and videos. Should be fun. Pete S. There are still spots for...

W.A. I think your car is about to be rained upon. I wondered who's red car that was. Put my cell phone# under your wiper blade. Pete S.

Chip is absolutely correct. This is the place for all things Ford GT, and membership does indeed provide access to extras. The knowledge base is immense and a better source cannot be found than through this forum and it's members. Pete S.

Mo, is the real name William, my buddy with the white no stripe car? Anything you need that I can do consider it done; and if not William, the offer holds. As for trained (somewhat) for certain tasks, drive over to Sheehy Ford in Gaithersburg on Rte. 355 and ask to speak with Courtney. Allow no...

It looks like I bought the 0107 Ford 3 Tab 2" diameter adapter - Power Bleeder which has the 1107 adapter; I think; and that's the one I use. Unless I am using the 1108 adapter. I have both and cannot be 100% sure, but farily certain. Check with these folks...

Rocket, are you aware of the availability of non-drilled or non-slotted rotors made that will fit our cars? A solid rotor is the next item I would like to try if they make a direct replacement for the stock item. Looks like you're ready to go. Pete S.

First, for my friend Howard: I will have to look it up, and let me say that it is an extremely snug fit, which bothers me a bit. I keep thinking I am going to break the resevoir, but of course I don't. Give me a bit of time to check the records and I will let you know, of course. Nielda, I...

Well, for anyone still on the fence, I am certain there is a bit of room out there for one or a few more GT's, though all cars are welcome. The long range weather forecast looked good; though I don't put much faith in weather reports, easier to bring the street tires just in case. I'll do my...

W.A. . . . if you need a hand or not, I will have my Motive setup with me at Thunderbolt; plan on rolling in to NJ late afternoon or early Thursday evening which would give us more time than we need to flush it out. . . carefully. Pete S.

Carl, I think when you fired up your car you set off all the car alarms in Maryland. The newspapers reporters are still baffled. Hope to see you in a week or so; and if you don't get to the track, just fire up the car, we'll hear you. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZlFvSI2xqk Yep, the car...

I wouldn't give it another thought. I am still simply surprised how loud it is with the x-pipe. Pete S.

Jeff, I cannot respond to that in any way that would make sense to anyone but myself. Maybe if they can serve me another BL sandwich like I got in Carlisle everything will be fine. With this x-pipe on now they'll probably kick me out for exceeding the db level. Pete S.
