I know you weren’t asking me but I feel as though it’s still too early to say yay or nay due to times. The track is going through a repave so come spring I would expect ford to go again and it should yield better times off of that alone. A lot of variables can be changed between now and Spring. Engine tuning and weather can shave a few seconds.

I hope they upload lap video with edits.
Guess no one ever ran a 20-22 CFTP there??

I think if they can knock 10-15 seconds off and be around 6:40/6:45, I’d say that’s pretty respectable.
The key is - to keep the Vette from taking the title (American car title that is)…. Right now, the Mustang owns it (again, American car).

From what I gathered watching the video, it was more important to be the first American manufacturer to go sub-7 at the Ring than to put out their best lap time right off the bat (although they were trying like heck to, the weather just didn’t seem to cooperate). They’ll be going back and it sounds like they feel they can make a better time. How much better? I guess we’ll have to see.

IMO they needed to push this out as buyers are already losing interest to the ZR1 and Zora and the new Porsche on the horizon not to mention the added price for the carbon performance GTD variant of this. I think they are trying to get ahead of this and it’s a smart move.

Buyers who can afford buying these cars aren't losing interest....they're just going to buy all of them.
