Ford did patent "EcoBeast"

Had a girlfriend right out of high school who's mom had an African Grey. The bird was cool at first with me, but would sit on the ceiling fan blades (obviously they weren't on) and when I'd walk in it would dive bomb me and start thrashing my scalp. I had the last laugh when one day it flew...

Go to the "Dip Your Car" page on youtube. Here's a vid of a 458 that they dipped [ame]

Could dip it I know a few guys in AZ with exotics who dip their cars. They just peel off the dip and spray a few new coats when either the existing coat is getting rough or they get sick of the color and want something new. If done correctly and not with a rattle-can you won't hurt the factory...

I'm not shopping anything else, because if I tie myself down with another car I'm going to be hating myself when I see these cars on the streets. I've been holding off on the GT since I saw the car was in development. Those ring videos got me hooked, the actual car and the associated vids have...

I gotta do something to get one of these cars....MUST. If I could only get lucky enough and have the economy to pick up. A crappy economy doesn't treat people in dentistry very well, nobody seems to have insurance anymore, thus they stop coming to their appointments. That rap on the throttle...

Yup I went back and saw I read it wrong...hate it when that happens :rant:

I think it read 13-15lbs less than the 50lb wheel=37-35lbs, and that's still amazing

Finally I think we can lay the CCB theory to rest. I'm pretty sure if it was going to be an option it would have been mentioned here, and thus they wouldn't have said "No CCB will be offered". I'm glad to see that these brakes according to the article preform better than CCB's and that you...

I think if they go the "2nd injector" route it would solve the buildup concerns.

I don't know, since they went turbo on the California it's running 552hp and 557tq. The hp numbers I can see (maybe) but no where near the tq.

Don't forget having that Hawaiian shirt unbuttoned 3 down from the top with graying chest hair boiling over and a tacky gold chain. That's what I seem to see every time I visit the panhandle of Fl

hmm, just looked at all them on a 47" monitor and didn't see it. Which picture?

Maybe compare CZ7 times after 8 laps and the CZ7 is in limp mode from heat soak.:doh:

I think theirs A LOT left in this motor. No way all the upgrades to the intake, cams, change motion controllers etc etc equate to 435hp. I suspect Ford has quite a few bumps in this motor that will simply unlock via a different tune when Ford decided a bump is in order. In all reality the car...

Ok, I'll clarify my question...what sanctioning body would ban carbon wheels that the MUSTANG would affect the Mustang. Also I'm curious, since these are a carbon/composite/metal hybrid are they in the same category as a full carbon wheel?

I haven't noticed any ban on carbon wheels. What sanctioning body bans the carbon wheels?

I mentioned above that Ford has never showed it would have CCB's and I honestly never saw it on the show car, in fact I went back and scanned all the pics and those brakes on the show car were defiantly not CCB's. I honestly don't see it even as an option at this time. As far as the wheels, I...

And the Camaro is a hell of a lot more portly if the weight rumors on the GT350R are remotely close (OMG more weight rumors) the GT350R wouldn't need the crazy exotic brakes to get the same performance, especially when dropping the rotating mass on each corner with the carbon wheels. I couldn't...

I'm thinking that may have been something like the rumored GT350S with the CCB's on the ring. Ford would have been pimping CCB's BIG TIME if that were the case. As it is the GT350R we have all seen defiantly has good old FE brakes (2 piece rotors), why wouldn't they have had it on the show car...
