Shelby101 Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hello to all my new found friends. On the ride from La to Vegas, every time the group slowed down, I would pull into an adjoining lane for Pictures. There were certain folks ( from Wyoming and Ohio) to mention a couple who found it offensive that my Hertz Renter was going faster than their fine cars. It ultimastely turned into a lot of fun though I beleive most was at my expense. No I am sure it was at my expense I want to Thank Greg for the use of his helmet and Rick for the ride in the Ford GT. I also want to thank both Gary Patterson and Vince for the Group One Race experience. These guys are really test drivers though Vince could not get around a Shelby 350 on the track. On the straight the terlingua ran equal, but in the cornors where passing was not allowed, the modern day suspension on the terlingua showed it could be much more manuverable. I also raced in the two different terlinguas and had a blast. Cosidering I came with a V-6 pusher, I had a terrific time. Thanks to all my new Found friends. I will let each of you identify yourselves if you choose to. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! ! ! All the Best, Mr. V-6er Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby101 Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I was in front, or at least trying to be there most of the time. Was great to meet you and your wife Rick. Be safe and I will have to get my SS there. :happy feet: :happy feet: :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
