While I truely admire the new Ford GT 40, I wonder how in the world can a half-million dollar (street) car can be expected to run equally with the production based Corvette Z06 or the BMW M4 cars, among others. Ganassi Racing spent two years running the engine/trans package in Daytona Prototype class. This car is a race car. Anyone with eighty thousand dollars can buy a Z06 or BMW M4 and identify with the GT class. How many will get a GT 40, even those with big bucks? These cars should not be in the same class. I also understand the FIA penalized the Corvettes two weeks before the 24 Hours of LeMans.
