"10 or 12 seconds faster then a road car on a track". Yowza!! That sounds like allot of fun.

Thoroughly enjoyed hearing it straight from the horse’s mouth. Larry’s very well spoken for an off the cuff walk around explanation of the car.

Would love to see a video of it being hustled around a track at full song!

I know it will never happen but just once let Ford/Ganassi race THAT version at Le Mans and see where the chips fall.

So is it 130 or 150kg lighter, Larry says both?

Just when we thought the GT was already turned up to 11 ...... Bang, 12! So good. Larry is truly the mad scientist.

Gentlemen,

This whole thing is killing me! I must have one of those with A/C and the 2nd seat. Already thinking about my colors.

I don't blame you, this car is awesome! Hope you get one!!
And you are truly a gentleman yourself as well,
making sure it has the extra seat so we have a place to sit when you give us rides, and even with A/C so we're comfortable while doing so,
You the man 😄

Yeah, 10-12 seconds faster than the road car is a huge difference. However, a lot of that is due to using race slicks instead of DOT treaded tires. I wonder what the split is versus the LM race car?

Heidi & I love Larry! We had a great dinner time with him in Daytona a few years ago.

Exactly. It will be awesome to live vicariously through you Chip! Would love to just see one in person.
Even if it doesn't come with A/C, I'll hold the ice cubes and fan! (y)
