    This was an unexpected pleasure
    We ran into this Ford GT after we had finished the earlier runs
    The Ford Gt is supposedly Twin Turbo charged to over 1000hp ( that's what he told us)

    Listen to the sound
    First up was me in the M6 and then the tuned M5
    He had race fuel and the sound of his engine was insanely loud

    Enjoy

    Ha ha
    I know I know. Sorry
    My brother-in law was jsut so amazed to see somebody driving his GTthat hard.
    The ownwer was really cool and we met up later and he allowed us to tape his car.
    The way he was driving I thought it was going to a really young person
    its so much better seeing an owner driving his car like this the way it's meant to be driven.
    It was fun all in all
    The video will be uploaded shortly

    It's fully adjusteable and rock steady. camcorder operated by remote .
    We used walkie-talkies between all cars with a 10 mile radius

    If that was Dave B.'s car it does 0-100 in about 5.4 sec. He was probably just playing. with you.

    We are always open to constructive criticism

    Glad you liked the video.

    We decided to allow the engines of the cars be the music this time around

    He was only playing with us
    But running an M6 and M5 with a heavily modifie GT was "priceless"
    Just look at that car
    Its amazing
    The decibel level of the engine alone almost blew our ear drums

    My friend got his car inpounded on Ocean Pkwy (heading to Captree?) The State Park Police are the nastiest MOFOs out there. His GTO was in inpound for 6 months, the judge sent him to some AAA school for speeders (haha) and he lost his lic for 1 year, his Sunday morning drag cost him close to 10K (w/ lawyer's fees)......... and all he was doing 105 driving next to another GTO....

    This video was not shot

    1- While racing.
    We were not violating any speed laws. Our speeds stayed well within the speed limit.
    For our high speed races we do not do it on public roads at all.
    We go to race tracks. PERIOD an dpay for track time.

    2- When we film races at the track we specify the speed audibly and confirm it with video footage . There are no audio quotes of our speed in this video at all. The prpose here was to hear the decibel level of the cars...not to post about speeds.

    3- We clearly cannot race at Ocean Parkway or anywhere else near there because of all the State troopers whose job we request to the utmost.
    We would not race on open roads. Its reckless and puts innocent bystanders at risk.

    4- In one section of the video you can clearly see us behind slower moving traffic. Decelerating from any high speed would be clearlt dangerous on Ocean Parkway or anywhere else.
    there are many parts in this vidoe clip where all the cars are barely at 30 mph.
    e talked to the owner of the car...when you hear the comments about him and that clearyl could not have been shot at high speeds.
    he just allowed us to hear the loudness of his engine. Hence no music in this video clip

    5- This is not a drag race at all
    The Ford Gt was only playing likewise the other cars.
    We were treated to an audible demonstration of the sound of the engine ...not a drag race.

    6-Finally who in their right mind would insinuate by video that we raced a 0-100mph in 5.4 sec Ford GT. We wouldn't even attempt it and definely if so not on open. That car is way way way too powerful for that.
    All you are hearing is the loud decibel level of the GT.PERIOD. That is why we posted the video here for you to see.

    I have looked at much more contreversial video clips than this here.

    I will remove the video if this proving to be so controversial or appears to be conveying the wrong message if this is the consensus opinion.
    Maybe I should add the disclaimer that this in no way represents illegal street raciing and neither do we intend to promote this clearly illegal form of activity.

    Thanks for all your commenets and I appreciate all your advice
    Much appreciated


    PS

    Look at all my posts on this topic (which by the way cannot be edited) and all we are talking about is the decibel level of the car and nothing else.

    Just kidding. I think you're fine. I routinely make the trip the length of ocean parkway on Sunday mornings (both ways) and even in the summer I never saw more than two troopers - usually just one in the same general location. If 'super speeders' doesn't get people arrested, this certainly won't. What it may do is draw unwanted attention to the parkway if cops do, in fact, peruse this board, which, to be honest, seems a little obsessive to me.
