I attended Le Mans, and they didn't sound bad in person compared to videos. The V6 twin turbo was chosen for the smallest possible package (aero advantage) and less fuel stops. I'm sure the production cars will have an enormous amount of time devoted to the exhaust system : )

Well put and accurate I believe. Ford is also wanting to push their EcoBoost engine program across all platforms. What better way to underline that than on the track beating V8 Ferrari, Aston and Corvettes among others? They got something right for sure!

That's the only reason to race. To sell cars. Win on Sunday's sell cars on Monday.

The GTs ran on rails, Astons and Corvettes looked antique by comparison. Ford will campaign the GTs through 2019 at WEC and IMSA. Lots of new technology will be had and perfected. A very, very good thing for all future Ford Performance products : )
