Just got back from seeing Ford\'s GT-40 concept car!!!
I was lucky enough to get to go to the World unveiling of Ford's new concept car the GT40 down at the Detroit auto show tonight. It was an awesome event. Racing legends Carroll Shelby, Jackie Stewart, Lloyd Ruby, and two others I can't remember were on hand to meet the public and sign autographs. They said the car has around 500 HP and 500 ft lb torque. Kind of like the new 2003 Viper huh. They also had 3 older GT-40's from the 60's at the event. They all sounded incredible. I hope they build the GT-40 just like Dodge did with the Viper. I think I would buy one if I could. I took some pictures and got a press kit, but I am sure pictures of it will be posted on the internet anyway. Wow, what an experience!!! I am sure the GT-40 concept car will be on display at the Detroit auto show when it opens up to the general public in a week or so. You'll all have to check it out.
P.S. Here is a link to it I just found on the www.NAIAS.com website. Ford GT-40 Concept Car
