    Ford Le Mans 2025 - Hospitality Package

    I think you just touched on the issue. Navigating thru Paris (France, not Illinois or Arkansas LOL) with a cell phone vs. actual GPS device. The at-times spotty service and the refresh rates on a cell were sometimes horrible, so unless you anticipated the traffic splits, you missed the...

    Ford Le Mans 2025 - Hospitality Package

    Similar experience, used Six as rental out of CDG, had a better selection of 3 pedal cars last couple of years. Question: do you have a good route to LeMans from CDG that DOESN'T route you through downtown Paris?? LOL

    A nice piece of Memorabilia

    Pictures just don't begin to do it justice! The documentation/provenance that came along with it is nearly as captivating as was looking at the engine.

    2024 Le Mans

    Congrats to MultiMatic and Ford! LeMans, always a tough race to finish, made even more challenging by the lousy weather this at the track this year. It seemingly rained about every other hour, complicating race strategy - fuel/tire selection and drivers - an immense challenge. Just the...

    Porsche sues Singer

    Exactly right! Don't register it if you don't plan on enforcing it. You'll need to budget for same, and it isn't inexpensive.

    Goodwood Revival or Festival of Speed?

    Absolutely - The Revival! I’ve Attended, and it’s my favorite auto/people event far and away. Book early on accommodations/tickets - it’s quite popular, and for good reason! Also, note that for the best experience, you should wear proper Revival attire. You most assuredly won’t be...

    Mark IV

    Ed - Rebecka let me have a long leash. 😂 I wanted to see the cars at the far end of the circuit (turns 2-6) - how the cars handled elevation changes and the off/on camber sections.

    Mark IV

    Great write-up Pete. Just to add a couple of points of interest: Wheelbase of the Mk4 is 50mm longer, but the overall footprint is the same as Mk2. Mk4 Suspension is constant variable design - adaptive/active & offers cockpit/driver adjustability vs. Mk2 passive adjustable DSSV vs...

    GT3 Mustang Sebring Test

    Don't know much about the powertrain side of this one, but there is certainly LOTS of aero going on with that car.

    IMSA GTP Primer

    Due to schedule, I had to ‘watch the race’ with live timing and scoring (thanks for the link DBK). Lots of yellows to make the already close competition even closer. Looking forward to next year to see the addition of Ford to GTD. It’s a competitive and crowded field now, going to be even...
