    My day at Cota...

    Flatout, There were no Vipers running on Sunday. As I understand it they also had PSL holder track days on Friday and Saturday as well, so that B/W was likely out there one of those days. Maybe there was another R/W FGT on another day, or did you mean my Tungsten? What a great track and...

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    Thanks again Frank and Ralphie! What a great board and great folks! Yes I adjusted the pressure; after arriving at the track and about an hour of cool down before my first session, the tires were at 35psi and I left them there. Immediately after the session they were 108f outside and 123f inside...

Sweet and beautiful wife and as mentioned cute baby girl getting exposed at an early age to the wonders of automotive bliss! Thanks for the awesome pictures C! Meeting you and sharing the garage definitely added...

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    Hey guys thanks again for the helpful responses. I went to the track with a full tank and after session 1 (25 minutes) I fueled up and was down 6 gallons. As Steve57 mentioned I just filled up after every other session and was fine. Steve I guess your fuel gauge was out as well? After the 1st...

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    Thanks all for the speedy replies. Headed out to check and clean the terminals and ground. Also when it's on my tender the gauges all work and it has been in the shop since Monday with no tender. I feel great about running regardless of the fuel gauge. Thugboat I ran there last November and I...

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    I should have known you were being specific to the trunk lid and not the clam. That seems to take dare of the beeps thanks. I guess I'll just gas up after every session and not worry about the fuel gauge.

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    Good advice and I thought it might be when the gauge went out, because it somewhat coincided. The door ajar light didn't come on which usually happens when the clamshell is not latched completely, but with that display out I'll give that a shot. FWIW the other lights seem to work (seatbelt...

    Urgent help or guidance needed!

    I'm posting this in the general section in hopes of a few quick, accurate responses! TIA! I've got a track day scheduled Sunday at COTA and I just picked up my GT from having the tach replaced and putting some Pilot Sport Cups on. Really excited as the only other time I've run that track I had...

    Please add me to the list. I wish I had gone over but was more than happy to sponsor (think I did twice, one for each car?)

    MVP 2014 track time schedule.

    As much fun as the three day deal sounds it was more time than I could allocate. However they've offered a full day track event in March similar to the one I did in November and they cut the price in half for PSL holders so I'm doing that. Searching for advice on track/street tires. Sounds like...

    FGT at COTA

    I understand. I've been to several schools and *schools* (mostly private track rental racing) and one of the best things about this day was it was not a school. There were instructors available and I took one with me for a session and then he took me in his GT-R so you could get some help but...

    FGT at COTA

    Thanks guys, I did a write up for another forum that I can post if there is interest. Yes twobjshelbys I saw that Bondurant school and was tempted as well, but they doubled their typical price for a 3 day school due to the venue (and it was for only 2 days as you stated). Also you have to drive...

    FGT at COTA

    I don't post here much these days but it thought it was worth letting you all know I was blessed to be able to thrash my GT at the Circuit of the Americas last Saturday. They had an individual track day and I must say it was likely the most fun I've had at any track in any car. Here's a pic...

    Ford instruments fix?

    My tach is out and I'm supposed to run COTA on 11/30! I guess I'll have to get whatever the Dealership has or can get...

    Tachometer failed today

    I found out two nights ago that I'm a victim of Tach failure as well. Although I'm glad to know I'm not the only one, it sucks that there are no OEM fixes so far. I'm headed to Colorado for 5 weeks tomorrow, and the GT will be tucked away during that time. Perhaps some answers will appear so I...
