What have you done with your new Ford GT?


Great time in Napa/Berryessa. Many thanks to the A. Simms family for hosting brunch and to Mr. Caldwell for a spectacular finish. It was a pleasant surprise to see 7 GT's ripping through the forest, all in a line. Amazing Car that Ford GT!

Let's do it again 4/17/20 Yountville, Ca.

A forum member sent me this link. Interesting to see it from a real world perspective.

 
Great day at a charity event for the benefit of ill children in Sarasota. Had a side theme of Ford vs Ferrari, and of course the NFGT got a lot of attention. This included longtime Ford GT friend and fan Jason Heffner.

Awesome. Looks like you were in good company. Great GT turnout!
 
Day 2 of GT ownership brought Mr Dan Schneider to a small celebration at the dealership. In case you haven’t heard of him, he has single handedly brought the OxyContin/Opiod/Pill Mill house of cards down after the loss of his son to addiction. He currently has a documentary on Netflix called “The Pharmacist.” It is excellent and I highly recommend watching it if you haven’t already. Dan is frequently shown in the documentary driving a vintage Mustang convertible that he and his son restored and is also the proud owner of a 2012 GT350 that I was fortunate enough to see today as well. Having a chance to meet Mr Dan is another privilege of being a Ford GT ambassador!

Drove my GT back from Florida to Louisiana with the wing up. Anyone know what that does to you MPG??? I do now. :LOL:
 
Got my Girl up early this morning to entertain the crowds at Houston’s Coffee & Exotics! I get invited to the best outings with great Ford GT fans. Sometimes Security wearing matching colors is necessary! HA!

My 06 is opposite Tomy’s, next to Ed’s white car. The ‘19 is in the shop still
 
Anyone going to the event this coming weekend?

Everyone left at the same time and was very easy and orderly! The people we work with in the Houston are excellent and very talented in protecting our Cars and setting them up very professionally! Scuderia II Presents are very good and first class guys!

Curious. Did you receive compensation for this?
 
Who needs compensation is being able to share my New Ford GT with grownups and children who tell me they have never seen one in “real life” much less being able to take a picture of one or with it! That’s my payback! I have been Blessed to be chosen to own one and share it with others! Check the grins on those kind faces. I get rewarded every time I show it. These type of Family showings put on in a first class manner is what I look for. Unfortunately many Coffee & Cars are being closed down due to the irresponsible young people who want to burn rubber, drag race while leaving and generally putting spectators at risk while damaging property! I don’t go those events! Life with Ford GT is wonderful when you share it with others. 0194FD1D-018F-44D7-A4A7-AA8973C8C6E1.jpeg

No compensation needed!
Ditto what Tomy said above.

i was under the impression this was in a Ford dealers showroom. Was i wrong? Reviewing pictures not sure how i got that impression.
 
I agree with Tomy. Got a few more kids smiling at a fundraiser for Shriners yesterday.

Yes, in a Ford dealer showroom.
Cars and coffee in the parking lot 150 cars.
The GT’s along with my 1995 Cobra R got the special parking in the showroom.
The young, new GM is a real car guy.
