True this>>>. Chip Ganassi echoes Franchitti in his own inimitable style: "I look at all competitors the same way. I want to kick every one of their asses."
Thanks Dave!

I can't believe I'm going to see factory Fords on the Le Mans grid.

Absolutely as I am sure the networks will cover the LMP1s etc a LOT more than our class, and the Fords in particular. I hope they archive some of it as I am not sure I am going to hang in there for 24 hours straight.

Good place to ask this, what's your take on ford absolutely sandbagging from the beginning of the season, to increase their chances to the maximum for the lemans win? How far can they actually go? I'm still just learning about the rules/regs of this sport so I'm unaware. The PR value for advertising is huge and the hype has increased to a level that seems like they won't take no for an answer, so to speak.

You can't avoid accidents or bad weather. Hopefully the mechanical/repair issues have been rectified. Anything can happen in 24 hours.

I heard the Ford GT's will be racing at Le Mans this year.
