spotted new stangs on road..and gt 40!

[chefster]

First off I spotted a Gt 40 ..the silver one number one of three, at a filling station.I did a quick U banger and went and talked to the driver,,she was putting four hundred miles a day on it to check out its functionalbility..it was well glazed with dried up rain dust and it had a side intake scoop missing..taken off by a gator! She said out in Wyoming they had it up to 120 in secong gear. The Stangs I saw were on some back roads where car and driver magazine go through thier execises..I hardly recognized them! they were panted white with baseball size black spots..it was an excellent cammo..I first thought they were bmw s they were 'nt putting them through thier paces just easy cruising.

Where's a camera when you need one?

I keep a non-digital disposable camera in my glove box. Mainly to document an accident, if I get into one.

ya with that part blasted off and the remaining dent along with the wind swept dirt it looked like something out of mad max

Where was this?

yep good old white with black spots.....test mules...that sounds cool

 

[Silver95Stint]

I wouldn't mind seeing some pics of those mules. I can't wait to they actually come out in mass production. My only problem would be getting either a 2003 cobra, 2005 stang GT, or even a 2004 Mach 1. My, my, my how do you choose?

whot not wait for the 07 cobra, or the 06 Mach?

120 in 2nd gear??? That doesn't sound like a close-ratio transaxle.

 

[chefster]

the stangs were cruisin on hankerd rd ..goin out to unadilla ,mich....the gt40 was at the truckstop gasstation at m 52 and 96 webberville

 

[chefster]

both these locations 60 miles west of detroit..very low traffic with excellent roads

 

[Zero Signal]

120 in 2nd gear??? That doesn't sound like a close-ratio transaxle.

I heard it could do 60 or so in 1st. They must have geared it to take full advantage of the really wide powerband it gets from the blower.

I bet the GT40 sounded sweet!

 

[chefster]

it screams

Its not called a GT-40, its just the Ford GT.
