As a young man I did ink drawings of the Ford GT in all the various configurations (Mark I, II, III, IV and J). I dug around and found them and I'm actually looking at them right now. I have been waiting for the day when Ford would again rule their class in Le Mans and I'm SO glad I have lived to see it !

      They would have been utterly disappointed Ford could no longer compete in the TOP class. When Ford went out to defeat Ferrari in the 1960's they didn't say:"Let's win one of the lower classes and claim victory for our ignorant target demographic." They said:"We want to win LeMans outright in the top class."
      Porsche won the 2016 LeMans with their Porsche 919. That one in its unrestricted Evo form lapped Spa faster than a Formula 1 car. Now *that* is an engineering marvel. Who cares about whether Ford or Ferrari won in the GTE Pro class??

Reminds me of how Daytona prototypes a few years ago were outright against the Chevy power plant and to some extent the Ford, while Porches were getting weight breaks, extra gears,fuel and extra rpm. BMW should have had huge BOP against it but never did, and they continued being at the front of every race. It made the series look like a joke, if the Gainsco and Suntrust Pontiac (CHEVY) teams and Krohn Ford hadnt worked so hard it would have been BMW winning everything and Porche chasing 2nd/3rd positions race after race.
