>remove all interior comforts out of desperation
Is this the benchracing model?
Porsche does it, why not Ford? I'd be curious to see if they'll do anything like the LM body kit too.
>tfw you never appreciated how fucking gorgeous the first gen ford gt was until it went off the market
>tfw used ones now go for $250k more than they did when they were new
>tfw they will never announce the V8 version
>It will weigh 3,054 pounds, a spokesman said.
So what did it originally weight?
I honestly don't see why people are so hung up on this. The 3.5TT is a complete race engine, putting out a lot of power. We put v8s in a lot of things, this time we're building within class rules.
>I honestly don't see why people are so hung up on this.
BECAUSE IT'LL BE EVEN STRONKER
>this time we're building within class rules.
Unfortunately this time we are building within ever tighter restrictions placed by IMSA/FIA. in GT1 everyone used V8s and up (V10/V12s too) and i have a feeling that would still be the case had displacement restrictions and the current rules didn't favor smaller displacement forced induction cars. (not that a turbo V8 isn't possible) but with these rules it is disallowed.
Is the V6 even going to withstand all the boost? Seems like it will be stressed and unreliable
GM BTFO YET AGAIN
>New high-performance competition model!!!
>Still no V8
Ferrari uses a turbo V8 retard
Alrighty then
This, and McLaren.
>GM cuckvette can't beat regular GT
And then ford announces a competition model. How can GM compete?
>not even out yet
>going to get btfo by the new McLaren Super Series
>shit we need to make a faster one so we can salvage this non-starter that will spend more time in the shop than on the road
Lmfao
>Anal prolapse taillights
The standard Ford GT already seems like a barebones track toy.
>no trunk
>no glovebox
>no cup holders
>no door pockets
>non adjustable seats
>carbon fiber and alcantara everywhere
What are they supposed to remove?
another 2 cylinders
>powered by the 2.3 GDTI with the nuts boosted off it and lag to the moon
But that's ok because Nerdburgerring times are all that matters.
>cup holders
In a performance orientated automobile?
The only cup holders these type of cars need is weight saving holes.
>factory antilag system
Ford please do this.
The Raptor already has one, I imagine the Ford GT does too since it's the same engine.
>Production car injecting fuel into the exhaust and fully raping emissions
I think not, bud
It's called baja mode, dumbass.
The Ford GT already has an antilag system.
It just changes shift points you dolt.
>no! it doesn't count!
lol
>An anti-lag system (ALS) or misfiring system is a system used on turbocharged engines to minimize turbo lag on racing cars.
>It works by arranging for fuel and air to be in the exhaust duct after the engine, and before the turbocharger.
>This ignites in the hot ducting and the combustion process that occurs there keeps the turbocharger spinning when the engine is not delivering enough exhaust gas.
It does not have an anti-lag system. In before "I was only pretending to be retarded".
the raptor does tho. stay btfo
Look up Baja mode. I dare you.
yes? and you'll see it has an antilag system
>If I keep pretending long enough he'll believe me
Just look it up.
it has an antilag system. stay mad, retard
>S-shift points a-are equivalent to a-anti-lag
>literally has an antilag system
>b-but
lol, stay mad
>I really really wish it had an antilag, so I'll just pretend it does
>he actually thinks changing the transmission settings is an anti lag system
Kys retard
>i'm getting btfo so i better just keep denying the truth
not an argument
Does the factory Raptor or does it not inject and combust fresh fuel directly into the exhaust before the turbine wheel during shifts and throttle lifts?
That was a rhetorical question.
still has an antilag system.
ford>you
>Ferdfags actually believe this
How can they even compete?
It would be cool, but I doubt it would pass in the pedestrian crash protection unless they manage to grandfather it in
Competition versions of cars only lose like 250lb at the absolute most
by actually winning le mans.

celica gt4
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of superior engine technology.
Huh, interesting.
Last century, but interesting.

skip to 2:30
then proceed to kys :^)
>He fell for marketing abuse of words that mean entirely different things.
It also said antilag-mode instead of system because he KNOWS it's not actual antilag. And you're falling for it hook, line and sinker anyway.
>superior
So superior it hasn't won a race at le mans?
>damage control
>It also said antilag-mode
because its only activated while in a specific mode? you are grasping pretty hard here. stay btfo
>the engineer of the ford raptor is wrong and im right!!!
>Ferrari
>Following rules
Bump for more gm fangirl assmad
Which rule did they break with the V8TT?
