I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Make a video of you cruising. You drive it all the time so why would that be so hard? If the story is true you should prove these guys wrong.

in not giving him anything, even if he was on fire i wouldn't give him water

Ok I am not gonna read this whole thread, but I read at least half of it and this is what I have gathered:

1. OP needs better grammar/spelling skills.........my goodness....

2. Assuming the OP has actually driven a Ford GT he definitely shows how inexperienced of a driver he really is. He cites that a Ford GT drives just like a mustang and apparently the ford gt he drove has a turbo and not a supercharger because this one has to build boost.

3. His knowledge of cars comes across as about as limited as your average soccer mom.

4. He posted a link to a photo of the supposed car he drove straight from his computers directory....

Im not gonna hold the fact that he is 18 years old against him. That wouldnt be fair. That being said, one can arrive at the conclusion that he, at least, appears to be intellectually challenged in a way that has nothing to do with his age or inexperience.

To the OP:

It is understandable why the majority wouldnt believe that you actually drove a Ford GT based on many comments you made about the experience you had driving it. They just dont add up with what is common knowledge about how a Ford GT drives. The statements you make about your experience with the car are in direct contradiction of pretty much any professional driver that has driven the car and was interviewed afterwards about it.

Personally, I have never driven a Ford GT. I have, however, sat in one and admired it thoroughly. I can tell you from that experience that not once did the thought cross my mind that any part of the interior came from a run of the mill ford vehicle. While having not driven a Ford GT I am inclined to place more stock on the impressions of what a professional driver described the driving experience to be like than how you described your little joy ride.

There are many discrepancies in your story to warrant the reaction of doubt that you have received. Hope this helps you understand their point of view(which I happen to share).

OK^^^fair enough, as for grammar, when i get into things i type very fast and this little 400 dollar laptop has severe keyboard lag when you type quick...so sorry, i dont really put a lot of effort into going back to correct it, and as for the xperience, i coudlnt hold myself together tha ti was actually driving the car instead of being in the passenger seat like the last time he bought one.... so i was thrilled, and i didnt push the car to its limits because i didnt wan tot wrekc it, so from my ride of not pushing it it was civil like a cobra, i never said it was exactly like it, cause when u hit the loud pedal it was out....but thebrake pedal feel was just like my cobra, and it was soo easy to drive, and as for turbo....no its blatantly a roots blower, if you ease into it the gauge doesnt max out, then when u plant it the boost really comes in and the wheels shred...when it comes into the rpms it really movves, ik meant it that way, not that it lags out....just how you give it the gas and at what rpm etc....it is a pehnominal car and i am dying ot get my hands on it againa nd owing one when i get oulder....if you ever do get to drive one....drive it normal at first and u can somewhat see what i am talking about....its not a get in and floor it everywhere and it hooks and goes, you can do that but its crazy....i was just enjoying the car....sorry that i wasnt at nurburging with my A-1 prof. drivers liscense

After you type a whole bunch of incoherent shit. There is nothing wrong with going back and correcting your grammar mistakes. I do it all the time.

Oh believe me I know what a roots powered car feels like. I have an eaton charged mach 1 pushing close to 500whp. Considering this was your first time driving a roots powered car its understandable how you would incorrectly describe the way the power comes on. No biggie.

See when you don't get into the gas the boost gauge is gonna spend most of its time in vacuum. When you stab the throttle the boost near instantly goes to max psi that its setup for. (The pulley it has, etc...) If its max boost is 8 psi(strictly example) then it will hit 8 psi as soon as u hit the gas. That's how it works.

The way you described it we understood it to be you had it floored and it hooked then after an unspecified amount of time the boost came on and it started spinning. That's why it didn't make sense.

The whole paragraph he posted didn't make any sense... i can't see how you could make so many mistakes in that paragraph... i literaly felt semi-retarded while reading your post rio red snake :loser:

RIO RED SNAKE is legit. I saw the car at a car show (Trucking Museum) and have met his Uncle and him through a good friend. I will post up pics if he wants.

I was there with my buddy in his 370Z. He was talking to you about getting a Whipple.

Here are the pics I took, cell phone pics so they dont do justice. I didnt stick around long enough for the Challenge to come by but I did see the Red Murci, and the owner of it is the one who introduced me to your Uncle and he told me a Ford GT is coming by, thats why I stayed.

I guess the 370Z is nice, its fun to drive, especially with the Synchro Rev-Match Tranny but I'd take a Cobra (which is what I am looking for now). Its quick up to 100 but then it climbs soooo slow.

And then you justified it! It keeps getting better! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I can outtype my Logitech G11, but you know what's cool about it? When the letters all show up on the screen, they're all right! You know why? Because the keyboard will only output what you input. So stop blaming your inability to communicate coherently on inanimate objects, you're worse than a ricer. Seriously.

You are tring with feeble attempt. I dont believe anything you say. And all your "pictures of proof" are situational at their very best. You tried to be an internet hero troll with this damn thread. Then your supposed uncle logs in and posts pictures and then makes the statement that the FGT get to 100 really fast and then takes forever to climb after that. LOL what a ****ing joke!
