Chameleon,
I would love to see a Mark XX Ford GT40. But as you already know (your pic) the next iteration of Ford Performance vehicles need to advance quickly.
The homologation of a race car is a massively expensive and critically time sensitive.

My hope, their plan, our dream, is to compete and win at Lemans...............Godspeed Ford Performance (SVT).

Best, Bret.

I'm very excited to see What Ford can do with this new GT!

They will be running FOUR cars at Le Mans...

Best case scenario, a podium sweep with all four finishing.

Worst case, all four have engine trouble, a couple DNF, and the two that do finish are soundly destroyed by the Corvette C7R.

It could be great, but it could be bad too!!!

Since when did all the sanctioning bodies decide to run restrictor plates? What ever happened to "Let the fastest car with the best driver win"???

Is there a Ken Miles or a Michael Schumacher or a Mario Andretti that Ford can get on one of the teams? They'll need an all star line-up for sure. General Motors will do everything in their power to make sure the C7R stomps the Ford GT in Ford's return to Le Mans. An interesting storm brewing...
