BYE BYE FORD GT! Next Stop: USA
119,317
Published 2024-04-20
Back in 2019, I took my Ford GT out to the United States and built the most amazing memories with it, a huge part of establishing its place as a permanent Shmeemobile. Since then, I've bought the Shelby GT500 and had it in the US for 2 years, taken over the AMG GT Black Series for a tour across 30 States, and even took out the Zenvo last summer for Monterey Car Week. However, with some exciting things on the horizon, it is time for the Ford GT to head back out and that means getting it ready to go.
Today we're transporting it up to MyCarImport to load it into a container that will be taking the car on the way 'across the pond' ready for the first plans at Circuit of the Americas with the GT1 Sports Club by Curbstone. This is just going to be the start as you can bet Monterey Car Week is going to be involved, but that is only the beginning of the fun ahead.
In order to load it up, the most important thing is to disconnect the battery given the time it will be at sea, and to do this is a process that involves removing the battery, which firstly requires the front-right wheel and arch liner to be taken off to get behind.
My car is about to head out to COTA for the GT1 Sports Club by Curbstone, and you can find out more information about the event here: programme.curbstone.net/gt1-cota-2024

I was wondering when weād see the ad with Puppi in the shark costume š¤£
-
Shmee! That was...... by far.... THE BEST surfshark add I've ever seen!!!
-
Loved the shark waving bye with a case in the background šš
-
I remember that trip to the USA you did with the Ford GT. No way that 5 years has gone that quick.
-
Hi Tim, nice lift lights you installed last video you should add a random car light command that light up a random car for you to drive for that day
-
Previous issues aside, it would be great to see the GT roll up the "The Block"
-
Well we finally got Puppi in a video lol
-
Guys, I think Tim has a GTD coming. There will maybe be an epic trip with the dark horse, GTD and GT sometime down the line
-
Hey Shmee, I've been watching you since 2014 and tour content is what I like most. Can you please do a tour series in the GCC.
-
shmee, please don't scare us like this with the title again, I almost had a heart attack.
-
I honestly would prefer a honest title. Having another trip is even more exciting than would be selling the car. I think people are tired of clickbaits already.
-
Still easily my favorite shmee-mobile. The car looks great
-
Always moving and "Living the Supercar Dream". Excellent work, Tim.
-
Would love to see the darkhorse wrapped to match the gt for the tour!
-
Thank you for showing us the details of the ford gt! Itās awesome learning the details about this car like the battery location
-
Hey Tim! Saw the 675LT at Salon Prive today and even in the midst of the hypercars was most starstruck by that. The first video I ever watched of yours was your first drive video in the 675LT spider and I just though it was the coolest thing. So to see it today, was kind of unreal. Never stop making videos <3
-
I was afraid you were saying goodbye to it for good! Thank god its for another US Shmee tour!
-
That shark was awesome ā¤ļøā¤ļø
-
I love the fact that you still do new content with the GT! Thanks Tim! Hope I get to see when you get here to TX
