The GT's ran slower in the speed zones after the first time they breached the limit, guess the first time was when they found the sensor was faulty...

#69 finished first. When I think of 69, my objective is usually to finish second! In this particular case however, it was more than appropriate to finish first.

In all seriousness though, it was awesome to see Ford beat the Ferraris and of course, the Corvettes. Ford copped a lot of crap for putting a V6 in the GT. Performance wise, who could really say anything now?

The road car is going to have around 150HP more than the race car, so I don't think the performance correlates
