    2017 Ford GT Job 1 Livestream - 11 AM EST

    Looks a lot more like a full on race car than any street car. When will weight, HP, Torque, wheel / tire sizes, WB and track width be published?

    Is this true a 50% deposit is required?

    I would pay right now to move up in line, say February - April :)

    Ordering dates

    Damn July to September 2017 was hoping it would be sooner but maybe good if any issues are found early cars. I CAN HARDLY WAIT!

    A few facts from Las Vegas

    If weight comes in on target every aspect of performance will be good, assuming that target is under 2900 pounds. If not, there is always the potential for a boost increase...

    2017 F150 with ECO Boost and 10 speed

    I understand that there was a hold on shipping the new ECO Boost trucks for rework. My truck was built on October 6th but has not shipped yet. Does anyone know what the rework involved and if they are shipping now?

    Welcome Guide Arrvied

    I talked to my dealer today, he assured me that they would not charge over MSRP. He has also filed the paper work to be a servicing dealer too.

    Welcome Guide Arrvied

    Thanks Dave, your involvement and guidance is making the process much easier. My next question was related to a selling dealer list, will there be one available for different geographic areas? The dealer I use now has said he will be an approved servicing dealer but how do we know for sure? I...

    Paddle Shifting

    I am not sure about paddle location fixed or rotating but I would not own a car with a conventional manual transmission now. My 991 GT3 has spoiled me forever, it shifts so perfectly up and down, never misses a gear and launches like a space shuttle. I have owned and driven some very nice...

    2016 Car & Driver Lightning Lap 10

    I was speaking mainly about the Vipers lap times getting rave reviews when a large factor was related to tires. I have run back to back with MPSC2 on my 991 GT3 against Bridgestone RE71's and Hoosier R6 and I can assure you the Michelins are slower than both tires. Michelin takes tread wear...

    2016 Car & Driver Lightning Lap 10

    The LL is deeply flawed because of driver talent and tire grip. They would need to put all the cars on similar tires and have someone like Randy Pobst drive them same day same conditions to even get close. We were told by a Kuhmo representative that the Viper OEM Kuhmo's should have a wear...

    2016 Focus RS

    I have heard the same complaint from two different RS drivers here in California that autox their cars. Sounds like they need some diff and engine oil coolers. Too bad, a great little car otherwise.

    Decisions Decisions

    Well, for the first time in my life I am ordering a white car, I like the way the body details show up in white. I am still undecided on a stripe but thinking silver if I get a stripe. I ordered a 2017 F-150 Crew cab with EcoBoost in white with the special edition package (dark stripes and...

    2017 Ford GT Width

    It is really hard to get in there now to tie it down to the E track. If the new car is wider it would be virtually impossible. I needed an excuse for a new trailer anyway.
