    JOYRIDE's "New" Orange Ford GT

    911TEO - I saw your pics before we had ours wrapped. They look GREAT! So thanks for helping with the inspiration. I think our "oranges" are a slightly different tone. It's so hard to pick an orange and they usually change quit a bit with lighting, inside, outside, etc. Anyway, great car...

    GTs at the Barn 2010

    Wow! Very cool. OK - we've got some work to do in Arizona in order to get that many GT's together for a 'casual event' - not related to a Rally. So consider it a challenge. One other thought...how many MATECH hats and shirts are going to be worn at Rally V??? I'm thinking we'll see a lot of...

    VIR Requirements

    nsfkid - I really like your animated .gif avatar! All she needs is a "G" on the left side and a "T" on the right!

    JOYRIDE's "New" Orange Ford GT

    Someday I hope to have 3-4 GT's in my possession. I plan to keep the black, no stripe as my "driver" and then start collecting some other colors I love. One being a Heritage. But for now, my focus and funds are with JOYRIDE.

    Some wheel alternatives for our GT's

    +1 on the ADV1 (Tungsten GT). They are clean, "hot" and not your normal rim design. Love it.

    Chip Beck Pre-Rally V dinner on Tues. night, Sep. 28

    Sorry Chip, Team Jeff and I will miss the Tues Dinner. We're flying into Greensboro late afternoon and picking up a Lambo at Lambo Carolinas, then driving directly to VIR. See you all at VIR Wednesday morning!!!

    Ford GT vs. Lambo Gallardo: Battle of the Supercars on Sept 9

    Gerry - are you 'stoked' about changing from "Spectator" to "GT Owner" within days? Be sure to submit your new VIN to DBK and get on the registry.

    JOYRIDE's "New" Orange Ford GT

    I like the idea of the "orange peel". =) Maybe in 6-9 months or so. We'll see how the 'wrap' holds up. I also really, really like the black-no stripe, murdered out look. But this is a nice change for a while.

    Ford GT vs. Lambo Gallardo: Battle of the Supercars on Sept 9

    I've had several folks ask me and PM me about where to see the Episode online. As of right now, SPEED TV has not posted the episode on their site for viewing, but there are a few options: 1. Catch a re-run of it on SPEED TV. It is sometimes listed as "Audi R8 vs GT500" in the cable listings...

    MJSFRX - Glad you could make it. And I hope you can join this great ownership community sooner, rather than later.

    JOYRIDE's "New" Orange Ford GT

    Actually it was inspired by the MATECH Orange GT shown below. The finishing touches are being made as we speak to the addition of a carbon fiber, adjustable rear wing. It will be making it's public "debut" at Rally V! :thumbsup

    Hawaiian Sunday with Maserati MC12, Ferrari F50, Dino, FGT, Valentino Balboni & More

    Very awesome. Thanks for sharing that great garage. Now I have another reason to get back to Hawaii sooner, rather than later! =)

    Ford GT vs. Lambo Gallardo: Battle of the Supercars on Sept 9

    Guys - this is not the final cut, edited show. It is a "web special" and has a TON of the 'out takes'.

    Ford GT Toy

    So maybe the AZ HP that pulled TeamJeff and I over on the way to Vegas DID have it right!!!...There are two engines in the Ford GT. One in front and one in the rear. Okay now...no jokes about "one in the front and one in the rear"! =)

    Radar Detectors Illegal in Virginia

    Well, I guess I'm glad I've got a 9500 installed. Only thing you can see is a black bar on the rear license and a very small readout just above the steering column. Now I just have to hope and pray that the 2 days at VIR do not melt the rear wiring again - making it unusable! =)

    Ford GT Toy

    Guys - I'm not sure what I'm getting myself into here...but if you're interested, and assuming COSTCO still has them in stock, I can run down today or tomorrow and buy a couple carts full. The kicker is...you'd have to pick em up at Rally V...as I'll put them on our transport. I don't really...

    Ford GT Toy

    My wife brought home two yesterday for me. Same deal - $29.99 ea at Costco in Peoria, AZ. The body is very detailed and has working headlights and taillights. The quality of the RC components have a lot to be desired. But for 30 BUCKS - who cares! Going back for more. Great Christmas presents...

    Ford GT vs. Lambo Gallardo: Battle of the Supercars on Sept 9

    Check in the owners section for more detailed pics. Particularly the one of Tanner holding a piece of the block with a Bull extruding from it. I'm guessing the engine threw a piston against the passenger side of the block...hence the hole and parts laying in a line for several feet.

    Ford GT vs. Lambo Gallardo: Battle of the Supercars on Sept 9

    Hey guys...lots of fantastic posts here. So thanks. We had a successful "bash" at my house with about 35+ people, of which there were at least 6 GT owners and 2 which are in the buying process (one flew in from San Diego) and let's just say that the TV's were cranked and the energy was 'high'...

    Ford GT Creme Brulee

    Saw this posted...thought the pic of the MC12 "toasting" Matech's Ford GT was pretty cool. Or should I say "hot"? :biggrin
