[QUOTE="Dave Schotz, post: 3365143, member: 2407"] Hey guys... well this weekend... I had a Double National at Firebird Raceway in Phx AZ... and wouldn't ya know it! SVT / FORD RACING and (I THINK) HTT himself... were out on the FIREBIRD WEST TRACK... testing... I got PHOTOS & VIDEO of the ordeal!!! They had 4 GT500's there... 1 FORD GT... and 1 C6 Z51 Corvette!!! I got video on a SONY DCR HC32... anybody know how to convert to .wms, or something like that? Some interesting stuff... first... a Black GT500 Convertible (not on track)... still had the 'red push button' kill switch... so you knew it was pre-production... but the two 'more interesting' cars... a Tungsten Grey... GT500 Convertible... that was about 99.99% Production... no red kill switch... everything was like right off the showroom floor... and this car was not being tested on the track... very nice. The other car... was an all Yellow GT500... that had some subtle differences... the rear side windows were deleted... like the older 67 Shelby's! And... it actually had FUNCTIONAL rear window 'scoops'... that had rear ducting going into the back center section of the car... either to the brakes, or the rear diff... Also... the car had some front brake ducts as well! The car doing most the testing on the race track was a stock GT500... Blue w/ Silver Stripes. The C6 was a burgandy color and I was impressed to see them testing against a Z51 car... and not a base model! The Ford GT was Yellow w/ Black stripes... All cars were gorgeous and the Ford Racing/SVT team were very nice! Cool stuff guys! :beer: Dave [/QUOTE]
