'14 Ford Nationals or: Goodspeed plays with all of the GTs

Yeah, I know I made the "random events" thread, but this was a little bit more special to me than the usual C&C. Yesterday Matt (fiveoh2go) and I went up to Carlisle, PA for the 2014 Ford Nationals which promised to be quite an event due to not only the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, but the unveiling of the four FIA GT1 Matech Racing Ford GTs. And it definitely didn't disappoint.

We saw the '15 Mustang for about three seconds as it made it's way through the crowd to the main stage, but I was too focused on the GTs to really mind - the owners of the street/race versions were all very accommodating and let me put my paws all over them. I've long said it'd be the first car I'd buy if I hit the lotto, but this was only the second time (first was at this show a few years ago) I've been up close to one - and only one would've been cool, but having about six street cars and 4 race versions to play with was pretty incredible.
