Garen Nicoghosian was in the hospitality tent. We had talked a little at rally 10 and he was hanging out and talking GT's of course.
He asked me if I saw the merchandise at the Ford Both. I told him I bought (4) T-shirts, (1) jacket, a race car poster and some stickers..
We all raided the booth and got a lot of goodies and the picking were getting thin... He said he was going to be working with the Merchandise group and there would be more cool items coming..
I said we needed a bigger die cast Model.. He pulled out his phone and showed me some pics .. there should be one coming soon,, Here's what some of the new shirts look like. I haven't seen them on line yet..

Hate I had to miss this one but no choice. If anyone picked up extra shirts or misc. they want to sell LMK.

If they had put the Ford Performance merchandise anywhere within a 50 yard radius of the Hospitality tent, it would have sold out the first morning.

I'm surprised they ran out of hats to fit your fat head.

Sure wish they had jackets for our ladies at Daytona... I know many of us would have bought one if they were made available to purchase.

It would also be great to have a run of special Le Mans shirts and jackets before we depart for the race at Le Mans.

Hats, the one on the left is a nice nylon "rip stop" type fabric. The right one is a more normal hat material

Ford really is behind, like not even in the game, in the clothing merchandise program. They are leaving a ton of dough on the shelf if you ask me. We have a ton of potential with this stuff and they are just not even close to the competition with their merchandise.

Please somebody wake them up! DBK! What the heck is going on? IE They could have sold us 1000's of things at the rally.

I want a 100 Raptor sweatshirts today!

The stuff they had at Rolex was great. It was a no brainer to just move the thing over by the hospitality. We would have cleared it out.

I'll talk to some people.

Had they done that, only you 30 guys would have bought everything and there'd have been nothing left over for the rest of us, haha.

I liked most of what they had, but I didn't care for the really heavy "painted" on screen printing used for most of it.

I'm hoping I can find a way to get one of the jackets they gave you guys.

Stuff pretty much gone by the time I found the tent. Managed to get the last T-shirt in my size and a decal, but that was it.

Would be great if they produced more and put it on one of their web sites I'm sure a lot of us would buy more.

While you can never have enough stuff, NGT stuff takes it to another level.

I asked, in your behalf of course, if the had hats with square corners. I was told that would be a special order item.

btw I told them my name was Frank.

DBK... is it impossible to get a license to make GT clothing or anything else and share the profit with Ford?

I would be willing to help with this and the FordGTForum could share the profits with Ford???

All the stuff I make is officially licensed merch, including the Rally shirts.

We could make new GT stuff but the stuff they had seemed pretty good.
