Ford GT (Mk II) specs

Hennessey says that there is no room for a V8 in this car. I don't think so. There is clearly enough room for Hennessey to mount, say, the Predator supercharged V8. That engine's small, and it's only 5.2 liters, but it makes 113 more horsepower 75 LB-FT more torque. Besides, I'm pretty sure you could modify the bodywork to fit it in, or push the cabin in a little more forward.

I love the Ford GT. I can't wait to see what the next iteration and evolution of the GT is capable of.

Goddamn I want a Ford GT soo bad!

wasnt it already shown the ford gt ran a 2:38 at VIR?

this car should've been around 720-750bhp with something akin to an extreme aero pkg. i still like the car, i just dont understand why they made it so track oriented without some real downforce/aero and being the least poweful in its segment

The time for Virginia international raceway is the grand WEST course not the east course.

The Ford GT is really a British car (and always has been, its roots trace back to the original GT40) and assembled in Canada. The Ford badge doesn't always make it American. This is no more American than the Chevrolet SS sedan is, and that car is completely Australian. The Ford GT is no more American than the Honda NSX is Japanese.

Guys Billy J Racing just got a 2:38.62 at VIR... That's rly RLY fast

Ford GT lays down a 1:23.69 at Willows Springs 4th fastest time at the track. https://ibb.co/iKw0UG

I think the real reason of the slow time in 1/4 mile is the large gear ratio for make 348km/h. 650S and 488 have very sort first gears and this makes better aceleration.

Should this website separate the base Ford GT with the competition gt or are they too similar? Apparently that gt is 3000 lbs w/o fluids, I'm guessing it's 100 to 200 lbs lighter than base.

Why is the 0-170 time barely quicker than the Charger Hellcat? Look at the 150-170 gap

I mean there's no way this car is making LESS horsepower than the 2013 Shelby MMUUSSTTAANNGG GT500. This is a supercar from Ford, the other's a $60k ($40k used) muscle car.

Also the 647bhp number is just a solid conservative one, the real number won't be published until after 2018. It's most likely making SEVEN-hundred 47, or closer to that of the new Shelby GT500. Ford is keeping everything lowkey for now as they know they are competing with likes of the new Corvette ZR1 and Bugatti Chiron.

Remember when McLaren stated their F1 had 550-580 hp for one year and then they said 627? Or when Ferrari said the F40 made 478 hp but it REALLY, REALLY made closer to 550?

If there wasn't enough stuff posted on this car page, I would have deleted this page as a moderator as it's not quite a production car yet. Ford is still upset that John Cena sold a blue one.

10.8 sec at 134 mph is a good 1/4-mile time to believe. Way more senseful than 11.1 sec at 130 mph.

So it was 9.2-9.4 0-200 km/hr car at low altitude after all.

Here is a article of Ford GT's instrumented test

Perhaps someone can notify is of the acceleration figures when Motor Trend publishes them. We will be definitely looking forward to that post.

TBH Ford should make a more track oriented version of the GT called like the "ganassi edition", like what McLaren's doing with the 720s and Senna. Make it 2600 2700 lbs and bump hp to 750-800 with a big ass wing and a lot of carbon. I'm sure the v6 can have more power pulled from it easily

Motor trend already tested the GT already at big Willow with a lot of technical data, Randy Pobst said the article will be released at any moment.

This car can definitely do 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds.

We need to put up a bounty to get a FGT on a US track and lay down some lap times.

Especially when the 2005 Ford GT almost beat the Porsche Carrera GT in Motor Trend.

Actually I think the Ford GT shouldn't even be in the 10-second range, but 9.8-9.9 for the 1/4-mile time at over 145 mph. Yes, I know, don't judge me, it makes 647 hp but it also makes barely less torque than a 488 GTB at a HUGE 5900 rpm and it has a top speed that beats the Porsche 918 Spyder too. It's also twin-turbocharged in its V6! 647 hp and 3.5L Ecoboost equates to about 30 psi of boost and that means it's just as likely to be underrated as the European cars.

On a side note, even the 2005 Ford GT's engine was underrated; and so are all of the Hellcats (made today) - but they're all supercharged.

Nearly every car has a bad run in their first test.

how many months has this been released now and there are still only 3 (obscure) lap times for it? lmao this car is a joke.
