    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    You are correct Ed. Reaction time is not an issue with these mile runs. We really don't care how long it takes just what the best speed is. Richard Hille The GT School

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    I am not in charge of this event and don't make the rules. It is my understanding that we will not have access to the entire 12,000 feet of runway. We WILL have a ONE mile acceleration area and an adequate shutdown area that will not require extreme braking to stop safely. That said, I would not...

    Headlights are in!

    EFFER MAN, All I did was go into my local Ford Dealer in Santa Barbara, CA and we went over the parts manual together, picking out all the rubber gaskets. These would be all the seals around the doors, hood, clam shell, side windows, etc. Richard Hille The GT School

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    Happy Feet, I guess I'm the wrong person to ask, as I have never run a one mile acceleration run. As to the distance of this event, I think the promoter is pretty well set on it being a One Mile event. You could always come out to their Bonneville 100 Open Road Race next June 24th to 26th in...

    Headlights are in!

    I had ordered a pair just to have "in stock" over a year ago, along with every rubber moulding in the car. The headlights just came in and I noticed that the new headlights are now made in Korea. I tucked them away with all my other spare parts. If you plan on keeping your GT a long time, like...

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    Richard S. (LOVE CHP), I have put you on the list. As to what equipment is required, generally they will let you run with a completely stock vehicle but will limit your maximum speed. If you want to go faster you need better safety equipment. My GT will have racing harnesses and a fire...

    a few pix of my new casa......

    Fast Freddy, Just remember, that 100LL aviation fuel is only about 91 octane R+M/2. So there's no point in using it in your GT.... The place looks great and it only takes me about two hours to fly to Tucson International and you're even closer to me than that. I'll convince SkyRex to come with...
