Ford GT (Mk II) specs

Those are actually estimates

Yes!!

ZR1 ZTK, Pista, and GT2 Weissach are like the words "cunt," "****," and "cock." GT Competition Series is like the word "shit."

got any screenshots from the new evo mag?

I'm at work. Will give to u later

8.0s to 100mph? 12s for he 1/4 mile? Wow maybe it was hot and the engine lost a lot of power

100-123 4.0 seconds. 123-150 mph 3.7 seconds! Non linear anyone? lmao. English buggers just floor it on rough wet road and it finally gets grip around 110-115 mph.100-150 of 7.7 seconds vs 7.6 for ZR1 in Car and Driver test.

Why are Evo drivers so slow compared to other mag drivers?

They use shit surfaces and use a -1ft (negative one foot!) rollout. That's how they got crappily slow times, like 12-second quarter-mile times in the Koenigsegg CCR and 9ff GT9. They still do, and got an 11.5 in a Mercedes E63 S when it's supposed to be running 11.1 or less!

Evo is not as bad as Le Moniteur Automobile or Motoring Australia, but they are nowhere as good as the Germans or Americans in performance testing.

"i just dont understand why they made it so track oriented without some real downforce/aero and being the least poweful in its segment"
and its outrageous price tag that doesn't suit a car that gets blown away in terms of acceleration by vw sports cars entry level for half the price lolololol

then you have dumbass saxy that never mentions these sensitive details, but when a mustang is added to the mix, he'll remind you how much cheaper it is and more fun than its euro rival cars that cost twice the muscle cars.

You seem to be on every post just to try to inflame anti American anger. Why be so mad? Real car enthusiasts care about fun, numbers, appreciation of culture and so forth. Not this bigoted fanboyish behavior.

Well hopefully the Germans don't see it as British Lol. I used to live not too far from Calabogie.

lol

I'm American lol

True but lets face it the next Japanese Bond villain will drive an NSX...just looks cooler than GTR.

Well I watch American,Canadian and BBC shows. Young Sheldon is the most popular American show up here and Murdoch most popular Canadian. Top Gear is up there for BBC.

He retard you know nothing the 2017 Ford GT, and the 2004-2005 Ford GT are both 100% American Ford built sports cars having nothing to do with anything British you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground. In the sixties the original Ford GT-40 was built using a British body even so that's a Ford GT-40 not a Ford GT late model super car. The multimatic factoring Canada builds the carbon fiber body, and a Ford GT Factory in Canada assembles the entire car in a Ford factory having nothing to do with Britain or Canada. How you make the link that the Ford GT is in British car only somebody who's mentally retarded or six years old would say something that ignorant. The United Kingdom has nothing to do in any way whatsoever in the production of the last two versions of the Ford GT. Ford has factories in Canada North America Mexico amongst other places. The Multimatic racing Factory, and team that races Ford City located in Canada. They were chosen because of their special abilities with carbon fiber, and the fact that a carbon fiber body is not going to be built on a assembly line. But the entire car once the body is built is salt inside of a Ford factory in Canada which only makes sense because Multimatic a Ford race team their factory is in Canada. They were chosen to build the carbon fiber body. Ford employees in a Ford factory build Ford GT until they are complete. By your logic any Ford car built that is not built in the US is not is not an American car? Every car manufacturer has factories in other countries.

Why would they? Your statement is almost as dumb as his.

Best performance car ever! GT500 will smoke ZR1!!!!!

NO way!!!

Horsepower doesn't mean shit.

Not when road turns

Also .353 drag vs .323 for 488.

That reinforces my arguments more. Since with higher drag has higher top speed.

Though very small difference in US tests. 0.2 to 100 slower than 488 and 0.6 to 150. 0.3 slower than V10 plus to 170. From 60-100 it ties 488 at 3.2 seconds. Hopefully there will be European tests as well.

Racing GT is lighter but less powerful by over a 100 bhp due to regulations

That reinforces my arguments more. Since with higher drag has higher top speed.

Hellcat is around 25 seconds to 170 mph.

Car and Driver had the Charger at 23.1.

Oh I think the 5.8 l DOHC GT500 is making 510-520 at wheels vs 530-540 for 3.5 l GT. If it made too much power it would be overstressed. Track cars are about durability. It already easily outaccelerates the AMG GT-R, ZO6, GT3-R and ACR. It isn't about competing with a Chiron or 720 s at the dragstrip.

Also Car and Driver think it would have lapped 2:41.5 to 2:42 if they had had more time with the car.

No, the GT500 made 609 at the wheels

3800 lb car would be way faster. E 63 is way heavier and maybe has 600 at wheels.

I was wrong. MT dynoed GT500 at 587 bhp at wheels with 500 lbs of torque from 2000 rpm. DB11 must be putting at least 560 at wheels even with better aerodynamics. GT probably 595-600 at wheel and 488 605-610.

Wouldn't its quarter mile times be closer to or better than a 720? it's almost a second slower.. I'm not complaining if it really does produces more hp tho

Ford are not competing with Bugatti.

The mph times of the 458 test are from a car Car and Driver dynoed at 495 bhp at the rear wheels. The GT is likely making 530-540 at the rear wheels but has more drag than barely less quick 458.

That was at nearly a mile elevation for Road & Track.

I believe that because an old GT could run 11.2-11.5. There is no way a new GT is "barely" quicker with a slower mph (128 mph with a manual or old-school auto is approximately 133 mph with a dual-clutch, 131= ~136). The Ford GT should even be running 10.6 at 140. That's what a 488 does and a 650S does.

The GT is a compromise between what an ACR and 488 does. It is nearly as fast as 488 and laps nearly as quick as ACR. There is always a tradeoff. It did reach a higher top speed at Virginia but it exited the turn faster than 488.

McLaren Senna has right idea ...incredible mechanical grip, power to weight and downforce. The GT has only 205 kg of downforce at 250 km/hr vs 591 for ACR. The ACR accelerates too slowly for a 450 000 $ supercar.

That downforce figure is wrong.

Motortrend posted the article today on there site but it was taken down by Ford.

Honestly, Ford is an idiot for doing that. Kind of like a liberal jackass that gets offended by every conservative aspire but acts like a hypocrite anyway.

It looks like communism to me.

I really like the GT, but Ford's behavior is almost making me regret the fact that they won Le mans. They still treat the car as if its not a production model with all the secrecy regarding instrumental test. Like, why is Ford so covert with a car introduced 3 years ago.

Them making the car have more horsepower shouldn't be hard. I agree there should be a version with more power. But this car is never going to be close to 2600-2700 lbs pounds with a full fuel tank and be road legal.

Maybe 2800? If I recall the gt prototype initially weighed 2890 lbs but they decided to add the extra suspension components to which made it heavier

That is excellent news finally a real instrumented test of the car. I did see the Instagram posts of the test good to hear the article is coming out soon.

How can you be so sure?

Because a Ferrari 488 can.

Too high a drag and slightly more optimistic American bhp figures or less efficient drivetrain. Very close to 488 till 140 mph though. Easily fast enough to scare Clarkson lol

You are looking more and more right, BR.
NOW IT'S JANUARY 2018 !!
WHERE ARE THE DAMN LAP TIMES !!!!!
I SMELL PUSSY.
So don't cry about it, be about it. Get an owner on a US track.

Altitude,aero ; and superior McLaren tranny and launch control.
