The online configurator has competition under the series tab. I noticed it today!

Hardcore version of a hardcore car. I want my A/C.

No AC for you.

No AC for you.

:lol

Whoever is tough enough to get this car will have a rare bird. My son told me he would spring for a clip-on Autozone 12v fan.

On another note, I'd start a petition to get the carbon stripe on the regular cars, but I already know the answer.

"...the closest one can get to experiencing the car that won the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans."

The race cars don't have AC?

I'm tough enough.

Sexy version, but as for weight savings we must be talking less than 30 punds on a stock GT with titanium exhaust and carbon wheels?
Will they give it an extra 30HP you guess??

 

[Jason Watt]

Love that exhaust on the video on Dirk Mullers Facebook

 

[Sinovac]

The use of the phrase "incremental weight saving actions" tells me there isn't a dramatic weight savings.
As for the exhaust, you can add it to the non-comp cars.

Simon, Houston is hot as Hades. Yes, you would be tough. :lol
No way I'd have a closed car without A/C in Florida.

There's a bunch of other stuff changed

Changes beyond what they list in the configurator?

 

[06fordgt]

yes it needs A/C.

 

[Sinovac]

There's a bunch of other stuff changed

The plot thickens....

 

[dbk]

The plot thickens....

Little stuff.

 

[Sinovac]

Little stuff.

Regardless, I'll give Ford a lot of credit for offering the comp car. I wish I lived in an area that didn't feel like a broiler in the summer.

 

[Xcentric]

Little stuff.

Drain plugs in the floor for sweat to run out.

 

[dbk]

So that's what the little tube under the body is for...

Mans gotta do what a mans gotta do! I'll drive in my banana hammock to stay cool....:wink:banana
The ingot silver black stripe would look nice next to my Q-Silver/Black stripe
