Reliving the moments !! Stef it was great to see you and your dad !! Raj, I know you pop in here,, We need a commemorative DVD !!
 
For whatever reason, I am so happy for Edsel. Of course everybody associated with Ford wanted that victory but it seemed it mattered to Edsel just a little bit more.
 
As I said in an earlier post Ford Performance put together great footage of all the race as well as activities and personnel shots of all Ford employees and drivers. I Repeat Unbelievable coverage and Great PR.
 
A moment in time. Everyone who was there -- revel in being a part of it. AND...be grateful that big dreamers are still allowed to chase dreams in one of the world's largest corporations.
 
So proud of Ford for racing the GT. It would have been easy just to release a new GT without proving it on the track, but they did it the right way and came out victorious. Still euphoric over the victory and the entire experience that was the 2016 Le Mans.

I think you're right; remember how choked up he got when talking about his Dad and memories of 66?
 
The included the Ferrari spinning, surprised they didn't include the other major event that happened on the same lap, almost at the same time, the Aston had a puncture that was running 3rd if I recall.

Can you imagine the result and elimination of so much controversary, if the 82 got stuck in the gravel, vs sliding through it?
