    Odd issue noted with lights on SPF.

    This weekend I moved a new toolbox in front of where I park my GT40 which gives me a reflection I haven't normally had in the past. It was after dark when I pulled the car back in but I didn't have the headlights on because I was just pulling up about 10 ft and could clearly see. As it turns...

    Avon CR6ZZs available stateside again

    Spoke with Roger Kraus Racing (www.rogerkrausracing.com) and he advised that they have the Avons in stock (fewer fronts but still in stock). He also advised that they were going to be selling some from the Nanking brand in the same sizes soon as well and that the Nankings were about $380...

    What Insurance company are you using? (USA)

    I have my Cobra insured through my State Farm agent for an agreed upon value and when I approached him on the GT40 he said it would be a bit more expensive, but not too much more and ultimately quoted me $83/mo which I thought was very reasonable. Four months later with no explanation the...

    SPF MK1 15" wheels

    I do not have my car in my possession at the moment, but I did get the chance to drive it at the 60th anniversary and the Avons show how much fun I had.... This has me wondering if I may want to look into 17" BRMs as replacements for more tire selection / flexibility. What is the size / offset...

    Raydot style window mounted side mirrors

    I'm at that point where I'm trying to decide on side mirrors and I'm waffling. I don't dislike the look of the radots mounted on the front corner of the side windows, but I had thought that they could be mounted perhaps using a plate and the original screw holes (altering nothing) but it looks...

    First sighting of my GT40!

    Was perusing the Downforce Motorsports page and there she was on the showroom with SOLD on the window! P2461 in all of it's Guardsman Blue glory!!! Looks like they have 17" wheels and tires on it, but I'm planning on 15" BRMs and they just might be on it to move it around since it doesn't have...

    Jimglo trailers

    My SPF MK1 should hit customs any day now in South Carolina, and while there are months ahead of her being ready to enjoy, it's time to start looking for a trailer in earnest. Looking at the Jimglos and wondering if anyone has any experience with them. What do you like, what do you not like...

    SPF Guages

    The stock gauges that come on the SPF show a redline of 6500 which is good for the Windsor, but about 1000 shy for the Coyote I'm using. I've been told that there is a "Superformance Electronic Guage Package" available as an upgrade that will let me adjust the indicated redline up, but since...

    Wheels and tires on SPF

    I originally opted for Forgeline 18' front and 19" rear with Continental tires on them, but it occurs to me that I haven't actually seen the wheels and tires on a GT40 before so I don't know if that is the best expenditure. For the Roadster I had to go with 18" wheels to fit the larger Wilwood...

    Howdy!

    I own a Factory Five Roadster that is a blast to drive but only a perfect weather car. Also, longer rides with not top and too much sun in Texas has been a bit much for the wife so I approached her about getting something with a roof (hoping to talk her into a Daytona Coupe). Well, she wasn't...
