    Rally 13 UPDATE.

    I wish I had a $1 for every new attendee who asks this question! Perfectly valid question for a noob. I have been to every rally Dave has put on so I know the process. Your car will be well cared for and unloaded/loaded if you are not present due to travel arrangement. We unloaders and FGT...

    change oil in ford gt 2005

    Good point nautoncall! Now you tell me. But I liked to clean the diffuser and look at all the covered components when I performed an oil change. Just me.

    Fluid recommendations

    Good advice Pete. Do not mix the DOT5 (Silicon base) and DOT5.1 (Glycol base) fluids. For those technically inclined and curious, all the North America brake fluid requirements are found in DOT Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, Standard No. 116; Motor vehicle brake fluids. A plethora...

    change oil in ford gt 2005

    Again Kendall gives good advice on the oil change here. There are numerous early Forum threads on the subject. Remove both drain plugs in the drain pan under the engine block and one drain plug in the bottom of the oil tank. Really a good idea to install the Fumoto F107N 12MM-1.75 oil drain...

    Fluid recommendations

    I agree with the guidance Kendall recommends above. Stick with Motorcraft fluids as they work just fine and were used during the development and certification of the car to much higher usage/temperature levels than the average GT owner will ever achieve. The Fumoto oil drain valve (F107N...

    Bridgestone replacement source

    Yep, cold temps = reduced tire grip + increased engine power. Respect the throttle pedal.

    Stay home ...

    I like a little color too. The Chicago display of the all carbon was a bit of a black hole. Very NICE job on the model!! Still working on the rear view mirrors? Even full size my clear bra installer struggled.

    Tire stagger

    And there you go 05/06 guys, straight from the one of the design engineers ACTUALLY responsible for suspension/tire size selection. He also makes some aftermarket shock absorbers for the GT (his own design) which not only function superior to the OE shocks, are adjustable and are pure jewelry in...

    Tire stagger

    ??? If you are talking about postponing the Indianapolis 500 why don’t you start another thread??? Or that “Race” means specifically the Indianapolis Race. Not to be confused with the Races at Atlanta, Le Mans, Canadian Grand Prix, Silverstone, etc. Fail to see what the Indy 500 race has to with...

    Tire stagger

    Joey, I am always amazed on how technical you try to be. Let’s let Scott and Mr. McGowan be the true sources of tire/ride/suspension information on the 05-06 since they were actually on the Ford GT build team and know the true car specifics. They are both very talented Engineers and know the...

    I agree, waste of time and energy. What business case could be presented to Michelin or any other tire maker to tool up this tire?
