There were a few other cars included in the discussion, and that 917LH can certainly attract some attention - but I mainly went to see the examples of Ford Total Performance.
The McLaren (720S) was a special guest, and was driven pretty hard on the back lot... the owner told me that he was able to get very close to triple digits before braking - wow  :o ... looked like it was shot out of a cannon.
The Museum guys stated that if there is enough "demand" on Social Media (Instagram and Facebook), they think that a special pre-screening of the new Ford vs Ferrari movie there in the main space.
