    Miller Motorsports Straightaway VIDEO

    Very entertaining - you certainly dusted a lot of cars in that second video. You sure carried the momentum well. :thumbsup One wonders what the top speed in the Vette is on the straight? We look forward to your next post of the GT Cam with engine sound.

    Gotcha Ed, thanks. Quite a variety of cars on the track! I wonder how many passing zones were allowed. Also, I'd be interested to know your best mph at end of the TH straight and what you found to be the right speed to take turn 1 at. Thanks (pm me if you prefer)

    bad luck. Hey, since this is a late production car, did you find out if the washers were the 'hardened' kind or the soft kind? It would be good to know.

    X-Pel Clear Bra Paint & Headlight Protection Kits

    I also have had the Venture Shield for over a year. It is almost invisible and protects great. It does not have the 'orange peel ' look of other products. I am told it can be polished if it dulls. Removal: The glue on these is very sticky though, and extra care must be taken around the hood...

    cool. BTW Do you intend to 'track' it anytime? If so I'd like to know how to handle the db limits tracks often have.

    Saw my first Ford GT on the road!

    I'm at 3000 miles now and it's running sweeter than ever. I take it out as often as I can. I have parking karma so I always get a great spot to park in. The restaurant owners around here really like us to park out front even if they have pay my parking ticket if it's illegally parked. The car...

    CC Wheel for GT

    Great story - love the decals too. Friend of mine was driving his stock GT when a Viper pulled up at the stoplight. The Viper guy yells at him, "Bet I can kick your ass - I have 700 horsepower with a supercharger". My buddy does the math and realizes there's no way he has that much so he...

    BlackIce , are you referring to FORD GT REAR EXIT HEADERS part # M-9430-GTX ? If so, can you (or other forum members) describe how easy/difficult it is to remove the stock parts and install the headers? And what you've done to deal with the sensors? Thanks in advance. I want to change my exhaust...

    Halfshaft Bolts

    Recent failure report Just FYI, one of my buddys had a failure a few weeks ago. He's an ex-Viper driver who loves to do burn outs. I had warned him to check the bolts but naturally he didn't (he's French :wink - just kidding Mike!). The failure occured when he was pulling away from a stoplight...

    Stillen 3.90 Gear Info

    Absolutely right. If it is going to be a big problem for Whipple cars to keep traction, are there any new stickier tire options available? If so, please distinguish between track and street options.

    Stillen 3.90 Gear Info

    Right. But unlike what Cuda thinks, a car with a lower-geared rear end will be quicker than one with a taller rear end, all things being equal. The trade-off is the top speed in each gear. It is interesting to note that the way top fuel dragsters get "away with'' using lower gearing on their...

    GT Pace Car

    Well Torrie I do have to admit some of them black cars are damn fast too! The red shows up better on TV though. I'm not sure if there is a camera fast enough to show your car at speed as nothing but a blur. Got any new videos?

    GT Pace Car

    At the race in Toronto last weekend, once again the classy folks in TO used a GT as the pace car. You can see it in all its splendor today on SPEED; look for the SPEED - SCCA Touring car and GT race coverage. Luckily there were lots of caution periods - the car looks awesome. Naturally they...
