    Dire Times for the Auto Industry

    I suspect your assessment is accurate. Unionized "labor" is irrelevant. They continue to play a shrinking and diminished role in our economy. I wish I could say the same thing about some of our teachers Unions.

    Dire Times for the Auto Industry

    Any chance unions would be willing to readdress the whole legacy cost burden from retired workers? That, more than current pay/benefits for existing workers(at least the newer hires-don't the big 3 have a tiered pay system for the factory people?) seem to be a major cost disadvantage with...

    Dire Times for the Auto Industry

    I was being ironic. Ford has a market cap under $5 billion. If the current 250 thousand employees ponied up 20k each they would own their company. And when did writing yourself a check not make any sense? That's what I do.

    Anyone else heading to Road Atlanta May 2 for the Mitty?

    Just curious. i'm under the impression it's the next best thing to the Monterey Historic's. There's even the Bondurant Trophy Anglo/American Challenge Race for Shelby's, Cobra's and GT-40's. Should be some fun.

    Does anyone know the story on this car?

    What would be the point of talking to Gerisch? Please don't tell me that you think his word is worth much based on his history.

    my brother wins the miller motorsports mustang challenge at road atlanta

    That's great. I'll be racing in that series this year. Ford Racing did a great job engineering the FR500S. I had figured Rehagen was the team to beat. Great job on the win.

    I agree. Are those the new factory wheels? I originally ordered my spyder white but got talked into yellow. I think Gallardo looks best white on black. This car looks awesome.

    32's the same day as you with the same set up. Hannemann ran a 31:thumbsup in the same car. A GTX. I couldn't run fast laps in the GT as it developed an overheating issue. -Kent

    quality of GTX1

    Regarding the X's holding their value I have no good idea. I would post comments regarding the quality BUT I would think most people would, and probably should, discount my opinion because I have been and remain critical of the guy that has made them. I would also welcome anybody non biased...
