Guess who is the newest GT owner

[Mark McGowan]

So almost 10 years to the day that I drove my first Ford GT (Work Horse 1) I have managed with the generous help of The GT Guys to acquire a 2006 Ford GT. Dennis and Rich went out of their way to make this car mine. It is even the correct color (to me) Black no stripes, just like my beloved CP4. I know the car is right because Dennis and Rich made sure it’s right. It’s like going back onto the program with Rich and Dennis working on the car. The funny part is that you get used to beating the day lights out the prototypes and just going home for the night. Now I need to take care of her, but Rich and Dennis will be there to keep her right. Ok Jeff and Ralphie you may have a head start but I’m gunning for you on the mileage, my intent is to drive her so you’ve been warned:wink

Congratulations...that is great. Most deserving of anyone. Ford should have given you one for free.

Awesome car. I love black cars but get OCD on them (my wife didn't like my obsession with my 2008 Shelby GT Barrett Jackson cars ( yes, two ). I keep thinking that a black no strip car with a red Heritage bra would be totally awesome.

I do hope you will drive the snot out of it !!!!

Yeah buddy!

Awesome guys. I knew it was someone important when Rich wouldn't answer my texts asking who it was.

Very, very awesome. arty arty

Looks like it's getting a litle cold in Michigan these days!

Three happy looking guys, and for good reason.

Congratulations Mark. Can't think of a more fitting owner for such an awesome looking car.

And kudos to Rich and Dennis for making it happen. Something to be said for a labor of love for sure.

You have got to give me a ride at Rally VIII.

Again, congratulations and best of luck with it. Drive the hell out of it!
