    Kevin,

    We saw it on the highway one day on the way to the track. There was an older gentleman driving it. Reeves and Bro-Ken tried to get him to run, but it looked like the guy was white-knuckling it just driving it sedately down the highway, so we didn't get to see how it compared to an Omni performance-wise.


    BTW, nice avatar

    As Clay would say, "Oh Schap!" As careful as the guy was driving it and the position of the vehicles at the wreck site, I would think the Ford truck was probably at fault. What a same. I hope no one was seriously hurt!

    The GT500 is a 2 tons big. It doesn't even come with a spare!

    The weights on its front wheels alone is heavy than my entire GLH.

    Luckily it looks like it was not too bad of a hit... it was in a residential area.
