Greg, Here's about 6 minutes of video of your Car up the Hill to Big Bear. Sorry for the close pass, she was in 3rd gear and wanted to go!!!!! Just realized, I pulled up behind you at the 3:20 mark. There were 3 Red Gt's in a Row, Sam is in front of you. Not sure if that was Ralphie or not in the first 3:20....

Haha, no problem with passing. :wink it was great seeing your heritage in action :thumbsup

Congrats Greg and it was great meeting you on Sunday. All the best to you and yours.

Great meeting you and Susan. congrats on your white/blue car and hope you enjoy it fullest. Did I tell you my favorite is white/blue stripe? :thumbsup

Congrats and welcome. It only gets better from here! You're wise to get used to the car and the way it lays down power. Super fun, super smooth, can come on in a hurry. Excellent photos showing the Italia. Hard to believe, but it looks wider than the GT! Have fun.

Thanks, the car is so much fun and I can't believe I put more than 500mi. in a week of ownership. :biggrin

Congrats Greg-TT! Cool car. I hope to meet you someday.

PS I think the 458 needs to be lowered? It sure is tall compared to the GT!

Thanks and look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Yeah, 458 looks so bloated next to GT. My buddy drove my car today and guess what?? now he wants a GT!!! :thumbsup

You can tell what size Whipple you have by counting the number of ribs on the main housing. The 4.0L has 14 ribs.

Congrats, the car looks great.

Thanks, I guess I will be counting the ribs as soon as I go home tonight :biggrin


Hey Greg-Congrats on the car, It was cool driving back from the mountain to OC with you and the GT40- Kendall is da man- I'm planning on tire replacments at Kendall's soon and I can bring you back should you need to leave your car at Cool Tech. How did you get out of the GT parked so close to the 458 :lol :lol

Thanks Sam, it was great seeing you again. I too had fun driving back home with 3 GTs. :biggrin Love William's badass GT40 :thumbsup

My buddy parked the car like that so he can pictures of two cars together close.

I'm waiting for parts to arrive before I take the car to Kendall. Thanks for the ride offer and I will keep you posted :thumbsup
