    Track day at Ridge Motorsports Park, WA

    Those are great pics and looks like so much fun. I will eventually get mine on the track, but I am still afraid of it. I've driven my 2006 GT 3000 miles since I got it a year ago, but I've spend many many days with my 33 yr old 911 on the track and I still find that challenging. The Ford is...

    Yuck. This will make me want to drive my old(er) cars even more.

    Names on the engine build tag

    Mine were Tim Parrott and Jim Donovan. Red 2006. They did a great job. Almost 39,000 miles now.

    Development progress at Rimac

    It sort of reminds me of one of the newer rollercoasters. You just sit there in the beginning and wait, no real noise, and it launches and accelerates like crazy.

    Clamshell Top and Side Vents

    Mine has the billet replacements painted white for the top (to match stripes) and black for side (to match factory). Previous owner kept the old ones and I have them in a box (and they have the broken plastic piece as others have mentioned). I drive it often, and live in Florida, so don't have...

    RADAR DETECTOR POWER SOURCE

    I have the Escort Passport 9500ix. I've had it a long time (at least 12 years). It was pretty good in the past, since it was one one of the first GPS enabled ones and would recognize and remember nuisance alarms (banks, etc.) and turn them off on your normal route. Nowadays, all of the lane...

    What have you done with your new Ford GT?

    I took mine to the Brumos Collection in Jacksonville today (I volunteer at the gallery periodically) and even Don Leatherwood, longtime everything for Porsche/Brumos, said he had never seen one in red. And he has seen just about everything. Even though they are a high frequency color, I had...

    LF HEADLIGHT BURNED OUT

    This is what is great about this forum - really practical info, especially when someone learns the hard way and shares it so others don't have to do the same.

    Photos of the day we bought our Ford GT's.

    I'm trying to be a good steward of his car. I took a nice drive to Amelia Island and Fernandina on Sunday. It's a fantastic vehicle, great mods, he kept everything (even the worn out things he replaced), and kept impeccable records. Can't ask for anything more. I consider myself blessed to...

    Updates on your 2005-2006 Ford GT, What have you done lately?

    I didn't do anything special. Drove it to Amelia Island yesterday. Asked the better half if she wanted to take the 35 yr old 911 with track suspension and no air conditioning or the Ford GT. She voted Ford GT. I married a smart gal. And on the way there we passed another Ford GT going the...

    Introducing M019, 2021 Carbon Series NFGT

    When I saw the first picture of your 2006, I thought it was in your house at first and I thought "my wife would kill me". And my second thought was "hmmm, maybe I could use this to my advantage to demonstrate how much more reasonable I am than other car nuts, because I keep my cars in the...

    Favorite or Recommended Car Covers for your NFGT

    I have a Coverking for my 2006. It fits perfect, and even has stripes that line up perfectly with the stripes on my car. Maybe the problem is they were looking for a GT-40.

    Fuel gauge

    This is what it looks like. I have a dash pad, BTW. Doesn't block anything since it sits slightly below the windshield line. It has a cord and is moveable. You could move it dead center in front of the wheel, but I like where it is. Voltage and water temp are on the left, intercooler air...

    Fuel gauge

    I will take a photo of what it looks like later today. I plan on taking a drive after I get off my too many Zoom meetings. It isn't graphical, but it is really noticeable and in line of sight but not obtrusive at all. I use the speedo on it all the time. I don't use it to display RPM, since...

    Fuel gauge

    I remembered the last parameter. Voltage. You can pick many different options, but only can display 4.

    Fuel gauge

    I have the ScanGauge II on my car. It was on the car when I purchased it. It is small and on the left dash. It has multiple things to display. I currently have speed, intake air temp, water temp, and I other. I forget last parameter. And I just drove it yesterday! I find the mph most...

    How much gas/miles left in tank when light comes on....?

    I've never let mine go too low - I usually refill at 1/4. Plus, I like going to the gas station since it lets people come over to look at it, rather than taking photos while they are driving. And I have a story like yours - a short while back a guy asked me (while I was filling up) if it was a...
