    Your Honest Opinion

    Own a F430 and a Ford GT I own both and it is a difficult question to answer. I had a 2003 Modena 360 before I bought the 2006 F430 F1 a month ago. The 2005 FGT is definelty better than the 360 in every way. The F430 is tougher competition. The FGT is faster but not by much. The F1 on...

    Lotus Sport I love my 2006 Lotus Sport. Mine is #8 of the 50 they built already set up for racing. I drive it most days and at 61 years old i find it easy to get into with a little practice. It has the most agile handling feel of anything I have ever driven or owned. It is much better than...

    dead battery and a trickle charger

    FGT charger The FGT charger has a "C" rate of only 0.50 amps. As you say it is a very slow rate to charge a battery. I suspect it would take along time probably a week or two. The charger is only designed to keep the battery charged for periods of inactivity i.e. offset normal decay. it...

    dead battery and a trickle charger

    Steve, No disrespect but they are easy to miss. If you bought your FGT's as used cars they may have disappeared. I assume you bought these cars new. The charger is very small. The ones I have found in about four Gt's are in the front trunk. They are maybe 2X4X4 inches in a box or a nylon...
