[david b]

(Woman) I got into this discussion with my wife yesterday... Has anyone ever seen a women driving a ford gt? Better yet, are there any female members of the forum?

Mrs. Spirit & Stunts wife I believe

 

[Triheart7]

There are a few others, but not many, that is for sure.

My wife. She is great with a stick (ok, no comments, Ralphie)

I watched Mrs. Skyrex and Mrs. Apollo go over 200mph at Mojave.
My wife has driven mine many times.

Mrs. Apollo. 231.1 mph at the GT Speed day and current record holder for women at the Mojave Mile 218.8 mph! :thumbsup
As Ralphie will be sure to point out, every once in a while she lets me drive her car...:skep
:biggrin

 

[Apollo]

Mrs. Skyrex at 212+ :thumbsup!

Mrs Aloha GT also drove at rally III at LVMS.

 

[BlackICE]

Mrs. Moose also drives one or two of them. Piccola has as well.

Kim, Anya's daughter, drives one frequently.

Odd fact, Jamal mentioned to me a few years ago, there was only one female original GT buyer.

Not to hijack but recently when I was getting my CTS-V worked on I saw another one in for service and I asked the service writer whose it was. He told me it was a 77 year old woman who likes fast cars (like 556HP!)

My wife has driven ours. If she wasn't so petite, would probably drive more often, as she has difficulty reaching pedals comfortably.

 

[Cobrar]

How about Andrea Robertson (of recent LeMans podium). I'd say that would qualify.

 

[steved57]

My wife drives her Red one (not very often) and she drives my Silver one too

 

[DanQ]

My wife drives ours. She drove it at road america and autobahn cc with the Shelby club. We would alternate driving between sessions.

I met Jack Roush last month and he told me he has 3 GTs, but his daughter won't give him the keys back to the blue one.

Here is a funny video of Steve's wife driving the GT back to cars and coffee when a couple of younger guys pull up next to it and realize it's a woman driving. Way too long of a video but funny around 1:25 when they pull next to the GT

Seems that Susan is doing her level best to keep him out of airplanes as well.

Reading this reminded me that I bought my GT from a Mercedes dealer who bought the red GT for his wife. Orriginally I was told that she "chickened out" and wanted to sell it. I later heard that he chickened out because she had a very heavy right foot. I bought my GT with 700 miles, but I recall replacing my rear tires a few months after I bought it, because the worn tire thread!

I did! I was part of the build team at Wixom and had the pleasure of taking one for a spin. Definately a highlight in my driving career!
