No John, I'm saving up to buy a lake house next to yours.

Hell, everybody knows I used Lester's money for the GT! Now I think Les should come out of the closet and tell us about HIS supercar, with initials "CGT". No mods needed, or so I understand.

Oh, and I'll run any 510 HP Viper any day with a bone stock Ford GT. I've driven plenty of Vipers and they do feel mean. Likely because they are like a real muscle car and get loose in the back and make you feel like a rock star. The Ford GT is like glue compared to trying to put the power down in a Viper. And the (supposed) engineering goal was a solid and smooth torque curve, like an electric motor, according to a book on the GT development I just read. OK, I just looked at the pictures, but so what.LOL

I bet the neighbor's car is stock and just has some miles on it, maybe a muffler. I wouldn't think a Ford dealer would swap a blower pulley. I have been told 500-1000 miles is mandatory to get all the power out of the GT. At least according to the guys on www.fordgtforum.com

So how about a Viper / GT shootout at the Supercar Reunion? I'll drive my car in from Milwaukee if Les drives in from Vegas! LOL
