I read it to a point where I was going to ask if you meant Ford GT instead of GT40 as the car you were chasing...Markquote:Originally posted by 1Rocketship:

Gary, Mark and ZR1, have you actually read it? I'm in no way against modifications.
". We can improve our Panteras by adding stuff that the factory was too cheap to include (they wanted to keep the price down so we could afford to buy their product), or by adding modern advances in technology that were not available when the Pantera was conceived and built. It’s probably the most-modified supercar, and of course a well-modified supercar becomes a super supercar! But SOME modifications that have been done on Panteras by numerous owners over the years are perhaps not as beneficial as you’d think."
The word "SOME" is key, there are plenty of modifications that can and should be done, but IMO the 5 I mention are at best a waste of time and money.
"I’ve had my 600 HP Pantera do laps at Spa, running at full speed chasing a GT40, with no overheating"
As you possibly could have been "chasing" a 7 MILLION dollar GT40!!!
