Went on a drive with a group from the Viper club today. Drive was about an hour, and ended at a car show in Fredericksburg. Fun times. A few other cars showed up, including a Z06, a Ferrari 308, a Lotus Elise, an AC Cobra, and...a Ford GT!

Just a few pics we took while hanging out prior to the drive:

Actually, at one point they had an "Enthusiast Membership" that was heavily discounted and was specifically for Viper enthusiasts that were not (yet) owners. Not sure if they're still doing it.

This cruise was pretty informal. We actually had a pair of Camaros who came with us. They were buddies of the guy who organized the event.

All very nice people. The guy who owns the GT was probably about 65 or 70. He didn't push it too hard, but he had fun with it. He found the car at a dealership, but the dealership didn't want to sell it after repeated offers to buy it. He told them "fine, name a price". Thinking they'd just make up a number that was completely unreasonable to him, they said "alright, $200K". He took the offer and bought the car.

That's the story as I heard it anyway....

Funny you should say that. The car was driven by a woman who took great pleasure in smoking my @$$ off the line at least once. Those things are wicked fast...

Edit for your Edit: Nope, different car.
