Well, I sorta strayed from an FS legal car. I found a Royal Crimson Roush Stage 2. That in itself would put it in CAM-C, but it's also got a supercharger on it. I'll probably run it as-is this year and get tires for it later. 700hp will probably have a bit of a learning curve. Should be fun...

If it's anything like it was for the '08/'09 production run, those numbers were released about the time the certificates of authenticity were made available. I got a sheet with my certificate that did some breaking down of how many cars were equipped with each option and how many of each color...

Don't know about 2019, but I've been looking at 2020s on Autotrader and such, and found a dash plaque of L3591 on a car at Sunset Ford in Washington. I just talked/texted with a guy that does a significant amount of record keeping for "all things Bullitt" (Dennis, for those of you that know...

I mis-remembered the 35 vs 40 aspect ratio. 35 is what I should have said. I did see quite a bit about S550 setups, but not much on S197s. To me it looked like I would probably have to get caster/camber plates in addition to the long studs and spacers. I missed it if someone was doing it on...

Thanks for the replies. I've been doing some contemplating and may hold off until later this year to dive into a new(er) car. Hopefully they'll have the Mach 1 classified by then and maybe they'll look at dropping some of the others down to FS (for 2022?). That leaves me with a relatively...

Thanks for the replies. This is pretty much the answer I was expecting to hear, but thought I would ask anyway. My current car is an '08 Bullitt that ends up in CAM-C due to the suspension work I've done to it (FR3A plus a few odds and ends). By going to an FS legal car I can at least see...

I'm looking at getting an S550 as a daily driver, autocrosser and occasional HPDE car. I'd like something I can keep Stock legal for autocrossing and still have some fun out on the track. I've done a fair amount of reading through some of the other threads, and it's looking like an '18+ GT...

I'm sure Dabko will be interested to hear this! He's put more miles on it than anyone at this point. I was involved with a chunk of the Route 66 tour that is responsible for most of those miles. I got a chance to sit in it and snapped this picture of the dash in Tucumcari, NM: [/url] There...

It's statements like this that made me hesitant to post the times. The guy that ran a 13.6@108 was a guest driver of a pre-production car and he only got 3 total runs. I believe Ford owned the car at the time and it was being used to raise money for cancer awareness. I'm looking forward to...

I saw one run this past weekend at Tulsa. It's the one that's been making the rounds with the Cure for Cancer drive. They had a "grudge race" with a '66 Mustang, with both cars having drivers that hadn't run the cars before. Also, the temperature was close to 100 degrees and the density...

Thanks for posting the interview. I can relate to keeping cars. The "68Cougar" in my username is in reference to my first car, which I still have. I couldn't afford a Highland Green, 4 speed, FE powered '68 Mustang fastback as a 15 year old , so I ended up with an Augusta Green (same color)...

My estimate was based on his $5000 in addition to the GT Premium price, which is less than where I would have guessed it (I was thinking in the $48k range). If the ^^^ post is correct, then it looks like it's a little less expensive than I had imagined it would be. I'm fine with that!

The current base price for an '18 GT Premium is listed as $39,190 (which may go up a bit for '19). If the Bullitt package ends up in the $5k range then you're looking at around $45,000 for a no-option car. The price will go up accordingly for adding options. The X-plan site shows a base of...

I apologize for the poor picture, but: The only mention of Bullitt was the actual "Bullitt package" option, which was $3,310. One other interesting thing is most of the time the color is called "Dark Highland Green" and on the window sticker it just says "Highland Green Clearcoat".

I've been lurking on the site for quite a while, and finally have something to add. This picture was taken at the KC Auto Show. According to a (Ford) gal I talked into entering the display, it's car number VP001. I've got to say it looks even better in person than in pictures. I'm looking...
