I would assume that when the GT 40 really starts to pull away the Ford GT started to ease off as he knew he was beat.

I have been in Lance's car with him driving, and the thing is very fast. The car just hooks up and goes. Very impressive car.

It looks pretty even, within the margin of drivers error until the GT lets off the gas. The SPF is pulling but not by much.

Apples to Oranges. (The SPF is still a nice car)

You would think the SPF would have done better, but it's hard to say what HP it has.

Cool vid either way. It's nice to see some people enjoying the cars.

You don't really have much engine build choice in a GT. That & weight(as mentioned above)... Do we get the video of them in the curves with professional drivers next?
