Excellent job for managing on-line '16 GT discussion, update, reveal logistics, and live streaming final show.

Great that Forum dynamics was managed and didn't devolve or descend into wild rumor mongering and craziness.

First Class process at Forum a& Ford.

Nice Dave, Thanks!
I remember talking with you on our pre-rally drive where i was asking/commenting about how Ford needed to step up with a newer technology like twin clutch and CC brakes, you didn't even flinch. You would make a great poker player...
:biggrin

Glad it was fun and people enjoyed the build up! It was painful! :lol

Ford did a phenomenal job with the car and they alone deserve to bask in the full glory of their reveal. I was really pleased that nobody got online after last night and busted the secret. Literally could not believe nobody rang up Autoblog or Jalopnik. I never in my wildest dreams imagined it would be the moment the curtain lifted that it was confirmed the GT was returning. Awesome stuff.

I would find it interesting to hear you comment on how much you knew and when. Anyways you'd make a great consigliere.

This was the amazing part. I can't believe that this car was built and was not leaked to the internet!

Agreed with the others, the secrecy all around was literally amazing.
