Why do you think he became a doc? :lol

 

[RALPHIE]

I don't think pathologists enjoy smelling at their jobs - just my humble opinion....

Autopsy? What's that? Haven't done one in years. They've been on their way out for years. No bad smells unless it's a colon for tumor. And those usually look like other color cars.

I hit 200mph as well That runway event was a blast. Can't wait to do it again.

I would have liked to see someone get a 100 mph run at the start.. you had to make a 90* turn to get on the runway. I was sideways a few times trying to get up some speed. One of the guys in a GT did spin ,,so who ever said 100 mph run up was a little optimistic.. That being said.. we know for a fact the Speedo's in some of the other cars are optimistic so maybe theirs did show a 100 mph.. :biggrin It was mid 70's low humidity...

I spun it once getting onto the runway Was trying to carry some decent speed, was understeering, shifted a little too much weight forward and the rear came right around on me. I might have made it if I stayed in it instead of trying to shift the weight to the front. The Ford GT is definitely not an easy car to drive.

Congrats Sprit!! Saw some pics that where great. Take it your lady pushed over 170mph?

 

[sprite]

Yeah she hit 170 I think she had fastest speed of the girls.

Hey Buddy is was nice to meet you, I was oversteering pretty heavy myself so .. I was close to looping it.. It was great to see your gal run down the strip !! Both of them.. :wink Nice vid of you and the 560..:thumbsup

I thought you did .. I wasn't sure.. All (4) of the GT's cracked the double century mark. Other than the Turbo Murci I am not sure who else did ??

Thanks Chris,,, It would have been nice to see you here In the " RED TT CAR " ....:biggrin

Unfortunately the Camilo TT is in Idaho. Lots of deserted 2 mile "runways" out there. :wink
