    Steep decline in FGT Values

    I have a midnight blue, no stripe, standard radio, alloy wheeled, 12K car. I would not even talk to anyone unless North of 400K. Way North. Then again, I don't want to sell. :wink

    What's so hard about driving a Ford GT (rant)

    I don't let anyone drive any of my performance cars anymore. One too many close calls. After nearly being wiped out while I was a passenger in my own Cobra, I decided it was not worth taking the chance.

    2016 Focus RS

    I am seriously considering the RS. I have been following this thread and the same type of thread on Corner-Carvers. Both the same feedback as far as tracking. I am down to the point that when the RS comes from Ford ready to be tracked for 20 minutes (I live in Las Vegas), I am ready to buy...

    Original FGT owners (that still own their car) that did NOT get order

    Original owner, no luck. Looks like my wife will get her (non-Ford) car now because no GT for me. That was the deal we made.

    Sometimes the dirtbags get what they deserve.

    Due to my participation at a training facility called Front Sight, I have many certificates available to me for anyone that would like to take a comprehensive 4 day defensive handgun course. I will give them to you for free. You will not only learn how to be effective with a pistol, you will...

    Sometimes the dirtbags get what they deserve.

    When you defend yourself, there is always the possibility you will be charged due to political pressure, but the law is clear on self defense against threat of death or great bodily harm. At least in most states. A woman shooting a man that is still in the fight is legal. A woman using any...

    Sometimes the dirtbags get what they deserve.

    The universal measurement is to use available force to stop the threat. I have always been taught that if the threat is death or GREAT BODILY HARM, you can use deadly force. And you keep applying that force until the threat has stopped. So, a man with a bat certainly meets the threat...

    24 Hours of Le Mans 2016

    He also fails to mention that Corvette and Aston Martin brought last year's spec cars to this year's race. Even the BOP couldn't help them enough to win.

    BoP? Where was it?

    Fchat has their views on BOP

    Yeah, strategy played no part. :rolleyes When the Risi car got passed into 2nd place, what could they do about it - NOTHING! The GT was superior. :eek

    BoP? Where was it?

    It was Porshe's, Aston Martin's and Chevrolet's decision to run old cars instead of updating to the 2016 rules. Ford and Ferrari updated. Did they just figure that the BOP would make them competitive? Didn't work out very well for them did it?

    Is the '05-06 GT passé ?

    witch replica ac cobra is a good one to buy

    I have a Factory Five. It was built to be able to perform well on the track and I did that often until I got into more serious road racing. The Factory Five is an excellent Cobra, now in its fifth generation. And you can have it your way. Any engine, transmission, etc. Thousands of...
