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.

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?

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.
