    Well, the 500GT was a little nose-heavy, but that torque would pull you through.

    lol I pressume you are referring to the GT500 and yes that is a beast and personally dont think ford will ever put out anything sexier than a 60's GT500KR but no lol the name is referring to the nissan skyline 350gt nissan tried putting out a few years back to bring some luxury to their skyline brand before reverting back to the powerhouses and making the new R-series they are currently making. Long story short I like the JDM G35's lol.

    But yeah I am excited about joining, I have been doing optical work for around 6 to 7 years and am considering going to school to go ahead and become an O.D.

    Disregard the comments from these two yankees, 350gt. One drinks from his swarf bucket and the other picks his nose with the same PD stick he uses to stir his coffee..

    Sir that is a down right lie! I would never denigrate my PD stick with coffee and nose hair. I have a spoon file for such things.:D
