"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Wow, they went all out on this one!
Only 45 to be built.

At least one needs to be shown in an art museum.

Isn't this essentially a 'works' race car?

Good video synopsis.  Ford should charge $2 million.

Originally the MK2 was a big block. At the least they could have put a V8 in it.

Interesting observation. The miracle is that Ford even built it to begin with.

Hey Ford!
No V-8
No NFGT

Larry Holt gave a very informative interview in the above youtube video.

With 735 very conservative H.P. out of this car who needs a V8 ;D.  In track form they were hamstrung at 430 HP due to the Balance of Power non sense, competitors (ne: GM) insisted on the BOP to "level" the playing field for the Corvette.

1.2 million in cash and a new top of the line Corvette side by side with the new Ford GT MK 2. Which one to choose.   Hmmmm. That's a tough one. Not!

It was cool at the conventions after the 05/06 cars were built and watching them on the track. It would be great to see one of these out there in the Advanced group laying down a few rediculous laps.
