OMIGOD!!!

I was out with my 4 year old son tonight visiting with friends in Los Angeles. I just got home now at 10:44pm. I had received the message earlier from DBK on my cell phone, but was unable to view anymore than a note that "your presence is requested in the forum." I was like, "Whoa, that's really bizzare. I wonder what Dave wants me for, did I do something wrong?" "I am going to stand trial before the GT Tribunal?"

And then when I got home I went and checked the link right away.

I am speechless. This is so amazing! I just had sinus surgery last week, and my baby had a double ear infection plus bronchitis, and my 4 year old had bronchitis, all at the same time. It was a crazy week. Work has been challenging too. This really makes my YEAR!!!

I can't believe it. I love Carbon Fiber!!! I was drooling over the pictures of the CF gauge panel. A CF tunnel is out of this world. Thank you so much Kip and DBK!!!!

WOW! I love this forum!!!

Thanks everyone for the comments. I will remember this moment for a long time, and cherish the forum every time I sit in my GT.

BlackIce and Wally, I am going to get you!!! I made the deadline!!!

Randy


Hmm, not very grateful are you? ;)

Sounds like we need a membership drive and more "special" raffles. Congrats Sysco! .....

Visions of the PBS drives are flowing through my head as I type this....

"for a $750 donation we will send youi this customer Ford GT wearable tote bag".. For $1000 we will send you the Super BONY deluxe version designed especially for the LeMans trip!"......... :rofl:rofl :rofl :rofl

...and you guys thought I was kidding when I told ya'll that Randy had 'CarbonFibrosousia'......cripes, he even gave it to his wee children. :willy

So Randy...you found the antidote!? Whew!

You were spot on, Kingman. Based on your suggestions, I went and saw a Specialist, amongst a huge gathering of them at the Irvine Cars and Coffee this morning. As mentioned, I, and family members were experiencing various types of congestion. The Specialist said he would need to take a look at our immediate environment, and sure enough, he analyzed the area and took samples.

Exhibit A, New England Journal of GT Medicine, Case Study #1559.

He found a positive symbiotic relationship between exposure to high quality carbonic fiber, and general overall health. He elaborated further, as he explained it can be beneficial not only to the GT itself, but equally therapeutic to its owner.

But then, as he scanned from mid to frontal interior, he let a gasp of horror slip out, unintentionally. He asked me if I planned to continue unprotected in these areas. I let him know, that just last night, national experts Kip Ewing and DBK had magically joined forces to provide me with an additional massive dose of rare and precious center console CF, the paradigm treatment for such affliction. And then, a smile swept across his face, matching my very own smile, and we knew all would be well.

Exhibit B, New England Journal of GT Medicine, Case Study #1559.

The news alone of the pending CF console treatment has already led to the following symptoms: enhanced breathing, overall feeling of peace and happiness, and continued goodwill and appreciation of fellow GT'ers. The occasional bursts of uncontrolled mania by subject are also a common reaction to such extreme and generous treatment.

It was a treat to meet you in person Kip! Thanks again to you and DBK and the forum.

The NEJGTM and the NEJM have no professional affiliation or connection. Any similarity is not intended but somewhat implied, and largely coincidental, and meant in parody. :wink

Thanks Rick. I am 100% recovered and doing great, 10 days after the surgery. It really was only the first 2-3 days that were kind of miserable. My toddler is fully recovered, and the baby is doing much better.

Life is good.

Congratulations SycoGT from Ewing Inc.

First of all, congratulations to Syco GT for winning the tunnel!
Thanks for the enthusiasm for the win. That tunnel will look great in that black beast of yours! We expect photos for the web site!

Secondly - A massive thanks to DBK for allowing me to sponsor the Forum in this manner. It's been a great opportunity to support the Forum and raise awareness of the new Ewing Inc. web site. Thanks Dave! We'll do this again!

Finally - I really, really want to thank everyone for their kind compliments on the Forum for the parts we are producing. I really appreciate the support and patronage I have received from the owners. It means more than you know!

Where else but on a forum like this, would members genuinely send congratulations AFTER a major prize is won?

That, in itself, is a special treat.

Thank you guys for being such great sports!

A large obscure package arrived at the office recently, arousing much curiousity from the reception staff...

Going to Cars and Coffee show tomorrow with my toddler, then going to drive out to Kendall's Sunday and carefully get this beautiful work of art into its natural habitat.
