Default EcoBoost for New Daytona Prototype

I think I like it. It certainly looks better than this year's car.

Im not convinced this is the 2014 bodywork the Fords will be using it just seems like the modified the headlights and grill area other then the nose piece it looks like a Riley body with inlets cut into it for the intercoolers,, hopefully the new engine will work well for Micheal Shank Racing and hope to see Ambrose in the car for Daytona

Heres the Riley bodywork for reference

Interesting, but I think the engine is the bigger story than the bodywork or chassis.

Ford's press release confirms the Riley Technologies body, though:

Michael Shank racing eh.

For a moment there I thought the guy that played Daniel Jackson on Stargate SG-1 had his own race team....
