Son of GT Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 GLUP! Man, after seeing that, I really hope that the sun comes out early and warms the track up on Saturday to get it grippy for us. That was definately a bad hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RStangsOC Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Anybody know who this is ? It sure hurts to watch. One of the first GT500's sold at the dealership I used to work for - was sold to a guy for his son. The son had the car all of 3 weeks and slammed it into the center divider on the freeway (only about 4 blocks fomr the dealership). They had the car towed back to us to see if it could be repaired, but it was too badly damaged - it was totaled. Sooo, the dad bought another one for his son (the second one the dealership sold).

AMAZING You would think DAD would re-think his 1st decision to buy for his son. Even if he promised to buy it for good grades or whatever, maybe he should start him with a v6 and work up to a GT not a 500hp car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could happen to any of us, so let's be careful out there. My condolences to the owner and hope he/she wasn't injured. Azbud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubnscrub Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 That was a hard hit but I thought it was around third gear..... is it possiable to lose it between 2nd and 3rd with wheel spin?

When he lost it it looked wiered almost like he turned the wheel hard right then left........ man my heart sank I've had mine let go in cool weather as soon as I shifted into 3rd. It's an ugly feeling at WOT. Took about 15 min in the pits to get the upholstery outta my ass. bj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
