    Nice!!!
    I may have to try to make a trip up to your area with the video and photo equipment. How is the car? Give us an inside real world drivers view of that "Ultimate Beast".
    Oh and in my opinion the Carrera GT Trumps the Aston Martin that was planned

    All the rest of the photos are a blur...

    I'll upload some to the gallery in a few days.

    I put a few more photos on the gallery - member cars section. These are the best I have - until I shoot some more.

    Thanks for the nice comments.

    Congrats on your CGT.

    Did you have any complain regarding the clutch actuation? I´ve heard many complains of some CGT owners, and some even canceled their order because of that.

    The clutch takes getting used to. I had read about the stalling some have experienced, but also had read to let it out slowly and completely before touching the accellerator -- and that works. I never stalled during my test drive. But did once after I bought it.

    The only cure is patience. I think after a few weeks, it will be a non-issue. Besides, once your off, it takes no time at all to regain your proper place in traffic. The low inertia of the drive line helps make accelleration unbelievable.

    Anyone who would cancel their order because of this clutch is not worthy of the car anyway. (Learn to drive you lazy butts. Sorry. Excuse me!)

    The machine is a race car in street dress. Aah, the joy.
