I looked on the GT Forum and couldn't find anything other than they are not
listed in THEIR 200 mph club.. wrong forum perhaps?

Land speeders: I shared this 283mph news with some GT40 folks and got this
reply: "Go read the Ford GT forum. These guys are frauds that showed up at an
event a couple years back with goons and machine guns roaming other pits
scaring women and children. The numbers they claim are BS. " I understand Ford
GT cars have run 257 at the Texas Mile (lots of witnesses and competitors) so
the 283 seemed almost believeable. Sorry for the mis-information. David -----
