The Ford GT is rolling homage to the GT40 MkI through MkIV [of the mid 1960's].

It kicked Enzo Ferrari's boys off the podium - back to back - at Le Mans in 1965 and 1966.

The GT40 is one of the icons of the history of motorsport , along with the Lotus Elan, the McLaren F1, the Porsche 917K, etc...

That you were unaware of this grand history is a little disturbing to me...:shocked:.

But now ya know, so there.. h:
