Answer to "ARE LOWERING KITS WORTHWHILE"

Well, finally got to a computer after fixing all the stuff I broke
this last weekend at Gingerman. Y'all are the first to see this, so ...

Right Click and Save As, please

Cliff

PS...This was the Ford engineer's third on-track and the first with
the GT I think. He was a good sport about letting me pass !!!

Awesome video!!
That GT really pull's out of the corner's!! Would've liked to seen it with a better driver, but I'm sure I wouldn't have done any better than him with the price tag on that baby!
Look's like you were on the edge of the envelope on most of those corner's!

Yeeeeee Haaaaaa! Love it.

Hey Cliff, Thanks for the DVD. I've made a few copies for the Lightning boys in the area.

What did you break at Gingerman?

Whoopps, I am working Hong Kong time, but it ain't a month early, only a day.

Sal, There seems to be a "wall" for lack of a better description right as I am going down the straights ... like it is holding the RPM or something. If I let of the gas a tad and then accelerate it goes buy it, but it won't go by it if I hold it to the floor.

The tunes seem RTFO ... Didn't loose any plugs, and I think the I/C pump was the problem. I ran with the 4 lb. pulley and it was helacious hot (110 heat index) and all came through except the brakes in the rear again (Damn Autozone pads! < grin > )

The right rear qaxle seal at teh wheel is leaking a tad, and I think it's because there isn't a vent on that side. Think that's possible? If so I [plan on adding one. Someone said ALL F150 leak on that side, but I dunno.

Ayup ... Quick little fu(ker ... I wanted to stay behind the GT though.

Then Peter blew by in his Cobra and I had to pit early for HOT brakes.
