Had the honor of lining up against a Ford GT last night at the track, what a beauty white with blue stripes.Well Didnt hit my 11's but I did something that felt almost as good.I beat My Cobras big brother the Ford Gt.I only won by a fender there was only .0575 between us.Although I have to admit I won On a hole shot but a wins a win.I guess all that practice trying to nail a 11 payed off. What a Honor it was to line up against that beauty

Those cars are pure sex
but you showed him that driver and combo mean more than bankroll

I wouldnt go racing him on an open track day though They corner pretty well

Thanks Jeff, no I wouldnt even think about getting on a road course track with him.That baby looked like a slot car on rails just sitting still.It took all the courage I had just to line up with him on the quarter mile

Congrats man!

I would have been shaking at the start line against one of those. Of course my car wouldn't even be a match. I'd still do it just to see a GT in action.

I wanted to go down to PIR last night, but I wasnt sure if they were even racing, so I stayed home. Really regretting it now.

I knew I should have gone to the track! I could've recorded it with my new digital camera.

I can walk you through ftp'ing it up to the webserver if you want. Or you could put it on a CD and snail mail it to me, I'll send ya the link. Whatever's easiest
