Ha!   I hadn't heard that term in years!   Yep, unload the wing, minimum aero drag, wings full sweep, zone 5 reheat, downhill rollercoaster like no other!   Screaming for vengeance!

Hey Clyde,
Hope that you and the Phantom are having a great time in LA!  I am celebrating my 84th today, and have had a few, and your comments about an unloaded extension in a Fighter took be back!  For those of you that haven't had the privilege, to point a clean F-4 straight down, and unload it to 0 G while going full A/B is a pleasure only the initiated can appreciate.  Wild ass acceleration is an understatement.  Reef Sneef, build up some Smash and join the Fight!  Fox 1, 2 and 3!
 
Killer Lead sends!

Don’t know if my post are getting out, I don’t see them so I am transmitting in the blind.
I put over 1 k miles in the phantom this weekend 
Started out getting 18 mpg ended up with 22 mpg at speeds around 80
It was Africa hot with a heat index of 103 everywhere 
Car never knew it, they must have tested these things in Death Valley 
Temps and pressures were normal A/C worked like a champ
Running 31 psi in the tires instead of 29 
The F-1 tranny works great 
I am noticing a slight double shift maybe when I go from 4-5-6
It’s like the clutch is finding itself just a slight hesitation as I accelerate 
Maybe it’s me?
Car pulls don’t sense any slipping whatsoever 
Question to those out there who have owned F-1 tyranny’s 
When manually shifting do you let up on the gas like you would do in a slush box?
I haven’t been doing that with this car 
Techniques ?
Anyway the car is stealth they never see it coming ( Klingon cloaking device on!)
3 rd gear acceleration is like an unloaded extension in a fighter (sorry about that guys, zero G means Zero lift and now the engines are pushing you like no tomorrow, right Rick) 
It a total rush, 
Glad I made the leap to the 575, I drove a 612 for a weekend a while back loved it, but the 575 is in a class by itself for the money 
And to do the belts you don’t have to move the steering rack!
Who thought that one out ?
That alone makes the 575 easy money as far as I am concerned 
Can’t Speak to the 599 or FF or any of the newer models but how much more do you need?
Don’t get me wrong guys, the 512 TR will always be my ace, but man did they Ferrari really improve the car in 10 years

512TR=F-4E J-79-15 engines
575=F-15C F100 PW-229 

And remember this guys
Never go vertical unless you can own it!
