Do I recognize that carport? Is that the restorer in TN that posts a lot on Stangnet?

Nope, gen 2 and gen 3 used a Mazda sourced (Ford owned some of Mazda back then) 5 speed H pattern. About 3 years ago, the Sadev was developed, for a host of reasons, but one major factor was the fact that it was getting harder to source parts, and gear cases wearing out, as the trans was ~20+...

There is no way I could mechanically shift the Mazda sourced H pattern faster than the Sadev. Again, I totally am a 3 pedal person, and really feel that a valuable skill is lost. I sadly have to tip the cap to a quicker way of doing things (its also a more durable serviceable item over the now...

SCCA Specracer Ford gen 3. The box is made by Sadev The GTD is going to be heavy, even with the weight savings of the body panels etc. The SC, fluids / coolers, the active hydraulics, S650 flat out being large, are bits that all add up.

Im a 3 pedal guy BIG time, but today, I drove a race car that I have 30 years of experience in. New transmission, from an h pattern, to a no lift sequential (up and down). For track use, I hate to say it, but the auto (what ever form) is just so much faster.

Auto only, and unique as the trans is in the back for weight distribution. Because of this location, it also makes for a crazy rear suspension, where the shocks are inboard, in the trunk over the transaxle. Yes GTD is street legal.

A woman cut my hair for 30+ years, was the only person to cut our kids hair (they are 19 and 23). Was $20 all in. She was my age (50's), day after X-mas sought medical attention, she passed on Jan 30th, sadly she must have ignored some warning signs. Been going to a place in Florida since her...

When I was buying an x pipes for a 93R and a 95R, I found few options (nothing) as the Feds are coming down on the elimination of cats (at least that's is what I was told). I bought China made x pipes off Amazon. The cat mid pipe on the 95R is not an exclusive part to the car.

Dont forget there is a Mustang Stern machine.

R1 is so good, and better, you get a game or 2 every night.

Been pondering colors for months now. Berillium is a cool orange ish color, however, I'm sure you would not be able to get the "recipe" out of Saleen.

Black Chiron? Ive seen it twice so far. No surprise once was in front of Ocean Prime.....

We will be getting one too.

Yes agreed, on the no cost option, on the flares to be body color or black. Understood on orange, the code orange (which of course you did not get), is even worse. Interesting on the roof. Cool build, be here in no time.
