    SPF GT40 handling?

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I have to agree with Pat here. I love the old stuff - but it just does not hold up in comparison to today's sophisication. It's not supposed to. I have many track miles in a Ford GT which is lowered about 2 inches...

    Road Atlanta Petit Le Mans

    A few of us from Charleston, SC will be there. Any forum members are welcome to join the festivities around turn 6 and 7. Look for the Gulfstream Super Nova in "earth tones" - usually with or near the old grey Wanderlodge. The Segway beer races are usually fun!! And so are the ornaments!:D

    Hello and who was that!

    Mike – That sounds suspiciously like my car. (What number was on it?) There just aren’t too many Gulf CAV's running around Cape Town. Perhaps Jean was testing it, as they just installed the Webers. I’m due to pick it up next week while there on holiday. It sounds to me you were...

    Garage Flooring

    Ron - Take a look at the Garage Journal Form they have covered flooring extensively. The Garage Journal Board - Powered by vBulletin I wrestled with the issue recently and decided on a VCT tile. Relatively inexpensive. I'll put a vinyl "diamond plate" in the work areas for heavy stuff.

    Comparison Between Ford GT & Ferrari

    Iain - Good observation! There is a similarity between the two cars. Somewhere on YouTube there is a clip I posted chasing an F40 in my 911 in the mountains of NC at a rally last year. Great fun...but that is one very large car! G.

    McLaren look alike II

    Yep - now that's a really cool car. A real vintage Mini that' has raced since 1967. In my care for the past 12 years. That's my Team Spreen Mini in the very capable hands of Nick Swift at VIR last week-end. He won Group B overall and posted a best lap of 2:23.7 in it. I was going to race it -...

    Comparison Between Ford GT & Ferrari

    I’m lucky to own a Ford GT. She’s got about 2,000 track miles on her. It’s a truly wonderful car. Docile to the point that Grandma could go to the store for a quart of milk in it. But, get on it and it’s right there. With torque to twist your nuts off. I have a nice assortment of high...

    T70 barn find ?

    Johan - late to the party I know, Is it still possible to find a relatively unmolested T70 in a barn that has not seen the light of day in over 25 years ? Your opinions please ! Yes!! There was one "found" 18 months ago in South Africa. I met the new owner. No BS. He stole the car. Gordo.

    What to visit ??

    That really is not much time - but if in Detroit be sure to visit the Henry Ford Museum. It's well worth a visit. They have the Chris Amon Le Mans GT40 there - along with lots of other very interesting car and transportation stuff. A tour of the Ford Rouge plant in Detriot is a must. They make...
