Interesting video on the new Ford GT and an interesting comment from TopGear Magazine "they've [Americans] never made a car that can go around corners properly until now [Meaning the Ford GT]"?

Please. I think not... I have three letters for Jeremy Clarkson at TopGear Magazine (who is well known for hating Corvettes)....

Z-0-6

It is an interesting video and I expect they will sell all they make, those race cars of that era GT-40 and Corvette Gran Sport were always favorites of mine. Just think what may have been if the bean counters at GM hadn't killed the Gran Sport.
The success of the C-5R in its short lifetime speaks for itself
a Z06 "Massaged" by one of the Vette Tuners would most likely give it Fits, but that would not appear in a Ford Ad:L
 
First comment.........that was a very well-produced video segment. I fully enjoyed it.

Second comment.......full of the traditional insults to America with a little Detroit (city) bashing thrown in.

Third comment........by the time he got any British* car started, I'd already be around the third turn in my old Corvette.

* They still do make British cars, don't they? Lemme see....Jaguar (Ford), Mini (BMW), Rolls Royce (BMW or VW or whomever) ;LOL

Nice comments about Detroit too. What a idiot.

My ear caught that as well. Good video though.

Rob, thanks for posting this.
