...in SoCal?

My phone was ringing off the hook this morning. I heard that 3 GT's showed up at Donut Derelicts, then went on to Cs&C this morning.:driving:

One Silver
One White
and one Maroon w/Ghost Stripes that caught everyone's attention.

Post some pics! :eek
 
Was at C&C this morning a didnt see that.....
 
GTs at Cars & Coffee

I was at C&C, too. One Tungsten and two Red GT's, two Shelby/Superformance GT40s, one original 289 Cobra. Didn't see any maroon GTs.

You know what they say about eye witness reports!
 
King, are you talking the GTX1 of MK2?

Frank, that's what I thought at first, but they said it was a coupe.

I guess they only stopped off at Donut Derelicts. My buds figured they went on to Cs&C due to their early departure from DD. At least 2 of my buds know the difference between ours and the replicas....but then, it is 6am.:eek

I thought they might be a part of the Forum because they said the GT's travelled together.

.............gotta get out of bed and make it over there more often. :ack
 
Tungsten was mine, left at 7:30 as I hadn't been to bed yet that night. Went straight home...

Were the other's GT's, or were they kit cars?
 
It was not my car, I am not in CA.

In either case when you see my car out and about in person it is more a bright reflective candy color, the pics always darken my car and if there is no lighting it appears maroon color.

However I do have Ghost stripes that never show in pics only in person so it would be cool to see another car with them.

bringing it to the rally? I think there will be a few of us who love to see it :thumbsup

love the stance on the z, its almost as aggressive as my boss :)
 
There was a Red / White stripe there. Nice guy, drives it a lot. Didn't see another although I left early and didn't look that closely. Talked to a gentleman who has a black but it wasn't with him.

Did show off my new Shadowman exhaust and from the comments I got, it's construction and sound were appreciated.

It would appear that there WAS (or IS) one in California.....http://www.luxury4play.com/american-auto/34266-candy-chrome-red-gtx1-005-a.html
I'd LOVE to see what Ghost Stripes look like in real life.....

I simply adore the colour on your car!! I've finally found a picture of a Candy GTX where you can (sort of) see the ghost stripe. So very cool. Maybe it's yours? It looks like Concourso Italiano in 2007 and was with a yellow/silver stripe GTX, a Blue/white GTX, a silver GT40 and several modern GT's.

EDIT - here's a copy of the picture from Brandon Brubaker where, if you look closely, you CAN actually see the ghost stripes! Well, it's easier to see on the full size pic here http://www.flickr.com/photos/mini82/1208095926/sizes/o/
:thumbsup

I believe it was at the infield area of the track at Laguna Seca.

I second that! It takes me a couple of minutes to read his comments.
