    Thanks Doctor V8

    I stand corrected, although you guys in Cali should have a handicap with the weather you get to enjoy:biggrin 100 degrees and high humidity... how can you have such high humidity and no rain for 147 days??

    Thanks Doctor V8

    Thanks to the good doctor for putting together a great meet yesterday. Although new to the scene, I suspect that was the most GT's ever gathered in Houston, I'm thinking there were 14+ with the few that rotated in through the day. Also, please pass on the thanks to your brother for all of his...

    Next Houston Area meet:

    I've shopped MB Houston North and Greenway for the wife's ML. I wasn't impressed with North, they didn't seem to be terribly interested in selling a car (it was 2007 and times were good so I guess they thought a dismissive look and MSRP less $1-2k was good enough). I cut a fair deal with with...

    Quicksilver Garage Complete

    The "home stall" for the GT is the single-wide in the back, not the double that it is parked in as shown in the picture. In the double, it is encroaching on daily driver space and my wife has something against having to park her car in the driveway. Something about turing our house into a car...

    Quicksilver Garage Complete

    Although all bets were against me on being able to get in and out of the single back stall with the GT door (I stood alone against wife and friends), it isn't too bad. I have enough room to open to the first detent on the door opening mechanism and perform a duck and walk to get in. All is well...

    Quicksilver Garage Complete

    The Gladiator cabinets have been with me for 5+ years and have held up really well, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a non-permanent/installed solution.

    Quicksilver Garage Complete

    Yes I'll be at the event. It looks like Houston is becoming the mecca of Quicksilver GT's this weekend!

    Quicksilver Garage Complete

    I've put the wraps on my latest project, making the garage suitable for the GT. The lighting was inspired by the pictures of Soroush's shop (I don't think it can be called a garage anymore) and everything else was driven by my preference for silver and black vehicles. The ceiling is calling...

    my gt has a new girl friend

    Congrats on the new stalemate! I was lukewarm on the California when I first saw it in pictures, but after seeing it in person is has become my favorite current model in the lineup. IMO, it embodies the classic Ferrari lines and figure better than any of their cars over the last several years...

    Texas mile

    Never heard of or met a GT owner that wasn't at the top of his game and willing to help out at a moments notice. One bada$$ group of guys that I am proud to know and hope to meet many more.

    Michelin Super Sport Tires

    Just put the super sports on my 997, there is a noticeable difference from the PS2's (which were my favorites). Not having the capability to get very technical on tire properties, these tires have noticeably improved and extended the performance capabilities of the car. I like these so much...

    The Ford GT Hardcover book is here!!!!!

    Mine arrived, packaged good enough for a faberge egg. So far it's a great read, the book I was looking for when I bought the car originally.

    Forum Wars II.....??

    Based upon the title, I expected Mullet to jump out of the crowd and whack a Supra driver in the head with the trash can lid.

    Anyone considering trailering from Houston/STX area?

    BTW, solo carrier not very attractive. Too much temptation to have it stop by "The Enabler" (aka. Shelby) for more work.

    Anyone considering trailering from Houston/STX area?

    On the bubble on this... Driving the GT to SLC not in the cards. Considering attending without the GT:thumbsdow Thinking of trailering if there is a decent rate with a reputable carrier with a group.

    The "famous" selling their GTs

    It was the green sequined thong day, not the BMW logo day.
