Talking Video: M6 + 1100 HP FORD GT

This is an encounter we had with a Twin Turbo charged Ford GT several months ago
Its quite an animated video with alot of talking from the passenger.
All I can say is that the Ford GT was amazing and the sound of that engine........listen for yourself


Clip 1 is the actual encounter
Clip 2 is the close up of the Ford GT

Cool vid, the guy in the GT must not have been trying that hard I would have thought an 1100hp car would walk away from the M5 and M6 a lot harder than that.

He was just toying with us
he was pulling from us at 140 mph like we were standing still
His car's sound decibel level was indescribable

Nice! I believe that's a guy on the board, he posted a 20 minute(ish) video of the making of that car and a few nice 0-200+ runs. Insane. Next time I'm down in Florida I'm hoping to catch a ride in that sucker!

I thought the video of the car in the making was a Red GT40? I think this is a different car? Are their two of these things running around now?

The white M5 belongs to a M5board member.

I think that GT would walk anything on the M5board and MBworld.

haters crazy
Joe used to be on this board (the red one in FL). He had a Kleemann modified SL65 before he got the Ford Gt TT. Since the IMV film he tore down the engine and had it built with bigger turbo's. That car is CRAZY!!!!!! From the looks of it he was definitely just playing with the M cars. AMG, M, it doesnt matter, either would get walked HARD by that car. I guess walking wouldnt be the right term, run?
