Ford GT results at Laguna Seca

[Apollo]

WE WON!!!! CONGRATULATIONS FORD!!! First win for the new Ford GT and a great welcome back to the winners circle for the GT.
This was so absolutely incredible and amazing. Almost a one two finish, we almost fainted near the end as the lead GT came into the pits. Wow what a day!

Sketchy internet for me here at Laguna Seca. Didn't see there were already threads going.

I was buying a new hat at the Ford promo booth. The guy says the Ford oval hats have a choice of a smaller logo on the back or the text "Winner's Circle". I said it's time we won & bought the Winner's Circle hat! It worked. I'm wearing it to LeMans!

[Awsum GT]

Bought one as well! Go Ford Win Le Mans!!!!

Great seeing everyone over the weekend and and at the races and meeting new GT Forum members.

Also a little treat for those that made it to the Clint Eastwood Tehama Golf Club dinner... Clint was there that night having dinner.

Did you ask him if he was applying for a new GT? If so, I'll start including him on our NorCal GT drives!

I was just going through my pictures and found this one. Taken above the hot pit on Friday, it's Jerry (Awsum GT}, myself and Richard (LOVE CHP), with Monica & Terry (Apollo) and Rex (Cobrar) hanging over the railing from the suites.

I just sent off a letter to Ann at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, thanking her for her assistance in setting up our Ford GT Corral, and I appreciate all the Forum members that came out to see Ford's first victory for the new Ford GT!

PS - Thanks for getting a jacket for me, Jeffie!!!
