Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

nice car.....EVEN better TRACK! Thats Laguna Seca, and it never looks that green and purty........
That GT is pretty kool, I like the special effects and bits of rubber scattering about.
Maybe it's not a Porsche, but is definitely a great car. Saw a prototype at the Chicago Auto Show a year or two ago next to an original GT-40. A lot bigger. I sure wouldn't turn one down! And yes, that's definitely NOT Leguna Seca!
Jackie Stewart did a lap around the F1 Indianapolis track this year during the GP pre-race festivities. I was on the bridge over the infield straight as the car went under--just awesome! I mean there were 20 some F1 cars there that day, but only one Ford GT. If I thought I could really get one at MSRP, I'd be VERY tempted!
Viken.

Im sure your right, but the commercial shows a section that looks almost EXACTLY like the corkscrew .....plus the markers for turn 11 towards the end is what made me think it was Laguna. Ive never been "ON" either track in my car, but I have done a track day at LS on my motorcycles.
Saw the commercial while watching the game. That is a great Ford commercial indeed! Very cool to see something like that on 'regular' TV...
Definately looked like Thunderhill as venue...
We did some wind tunnel work on the Ford GT about a year ago. A great looking 'retro' supercar
It was Thunderhill. One of my super bowl watching buddies did a 24 hour race there and was saying out loud each turn number the second they showed it. hehe
I've spoken with one of the lead engineers on the Ford Gt project, a few months ago. He's an alum. of my school, so he was here giving a presentation on the GT and manufacturing procedures. It's one hell of a car! Oh, btw, 500HP is a "conservative number," and 400t-lbs are available at only 2000 RPM's!
Check out this website for the making of the GT ad. Pretty cool. They say at the end that the helicopter couldn't keep up with the GT.

Man, if I had a spare $150K!
Ok, this is a real novice question....is sliding around the corners as the GT40 is shown the fastest way through a corner? Seems like you'd be going into the corner faster, but you'd lose something on the acceleration exiting.
I guess I really do need to sign up for a DE. Watching that commercial quickened my pulse.
Agree with Robert. You should sacrifice speed going into the corner in order to exit the corner at a higher speed. Specially important if you have a straightaway after the corner.
And yes, sliding or "drifting" though the corner is great fun.
