    ZR1 faster lap then NFGT

    No surprises here, there will ALWAYS be faster, bigger, better. Start chasing that dragon and you'll be full of regret with your purchase every time the next big thing comes down the pipe. At some point, you just gotta decide what you are after and enjoy it for what it is. Wish I would learn to...

    Runway Racing Event Saturday April 7th, 2018 Mojave California

    Tom, I got 230 at Kennedy, pulling 5th. Next time, its time to turn the boost up and go for 240 in Sixth...I would love to try Edwards, but like you said, that seems like a long shot. Kennedy is great, but its on the other side of Narnia for us Westerners...

    Mecum Kissimmee GT auction result 1/13/18

    Sitting through Barrett for several days, I didn't detect much softness when it comes to the GT; with commission, prices were well north of 300k, and these cars were not in perfect condition by any stretch. The only number that had me scratching my head regarding the GT was the beautiful TT car...

    Sale of NFGT only one of the awe inspiring events at Barrett-Jackson

    I was lucky enough sit through many hours of the auction in person; I've got to agree that the immediate, generous and spontaneous welcome President Bush received was inspiring. Standing ovation. I was on my feet with a lump in my throat that fast. The cars were interesting this year, and the...

    I'm considering the March event. A couple of things have to fall into place, but it is such a fun time that I am trying to make it work!

    No NFGT but I got this!

    Wowzer! Super cool and great choice. That thing will draw more attention that walking into church in your birthday suit. I just bought a Audi R8 V10 Plus, and the NA V-10s in these cars are pretty amazing. Hope you enjoy it in good health and watch out for the cell phone picture takers while...

    Ford GT Rally 12 Film

    Simply superb, I'm really impressed with the production quality. Thanks for putting this together; I'll instruct my great-great grandkids to watch it and gain a little insight into their obviously insane progenitor and his strange friends...

    Heffner Performance, Inc. Titanium Cat Back Exhaust System For the Incredible NGT

    Great work, Jason. If anyone can sprinkle magic dust on the NGT, its you! Now I don't have to keep my yapper shut about seeing Dave's car in your shop :)

    Doh! Well jaxgt, it would certainly have added significantly to the average IQ of the event to have you there. Maybe on the next go round! :)

    Kennedy Space Center

    Usually around 1800. Certainly not cheap, but if a person is looking to knock the magic 200 off their bucket list, this is a great, safe, historic venue in which to do it. I am confirmed to attend again for the December event; it would be great to see a few of my GT brethren there! (no...

    Nailed it. I love every single think about it.

    Kennedy Space Center

    Kendall, great to hear from you my friend! So, I'm wondering: Since it appears that I am pretty easily able to get to redline in 5th now, what kind of results will I see if I start trying to pull speed in 6th? What kind of boost do you think I would need to make that happen?

    JAXGT, December 15 and 16. I understand that it will be a larger group this time, around 15-20 cars. I am pretty sure that we will be there. It would be awesome if Susie and I could see you again!

    Kennedy Space Center

    Nautoncall, Yes, most certainly my favorite of all time. As I've said on a few previous occasions, I'm kind of tired of the whole sports car du jour thing. I love the GT because it is the perfect platform upon which to build a very personalized hot rod. Can't think of another car in which I...

    Kennedy Space Center

    Report from Kennedy Space Center 1. The surface is as smooth as a pool table and flatter than Kansas, with virtually unlimited traction. It was perfectly clean. I can't think of another place like it in the world. I felt TOTALLY comfortable at all the speeds I drove. Heck, on the return runs, I...

    Kennedy Space Center

    Had an awesome road trip with the Missus in the Toter and made it to Sarasota today. There is something deeply therapeutic about a cross country drive... I took the car to Jason Heffner this afternoon to him waive some magic dust on it. Actually, mostly just to let him give it a thorough...
