i love detroit.

while coming back from demoing my brown car to a fellow MKIII owner, we saw not 1 but 3 ford gts pass along with a SVT focus chase car (w/vid cam), all w/manufacturer plates. we gave chase and ended up romping with them down the freeway @ well over 120.....and i lost. never got a clean run, but whenever they would be on it they would just slowly pull away (i was only running 21 psi). amazing cars! beautiful! fast! a good time was had by all.

Nice runs (too bad I can't say kills). I really like the styling on those. How do they sound, btw?

Ford might consider bringing one out in Brown now

Of course Ford might have cancelled the program had three of them got soundly whooped by an 87 Toyota on the highway

Hey Doc, at least you gave them a run, I would have just look at them and wave. cuz no way in hell i would even try,
at least you enjoy it, and had fun,

[MKIIISupraGuy]

God damn

Sweet run... I'd love to see one of them here... However, I've still yet to see a SRT neon and EVO8 here in canada... Never mind a Ford GT...


How much do them things weigh?

Also what did the cop do when u blew by him?

 

[jbsupra89t]

he probabaly sat there and went, "hmm that brown car could use a paint job..." j/k man, nice runs i'd love to see one around here...
