Looks cool...more than likely a D.P. car.
Or "just maybe" a Le Mans racer. with Small displacement EcoBoost of some sort? As I said "just maybe". A bit of wishful thinking on my part.
This came "as is" from Ford Racing on Face Book today. Following their Face Book links led me to some Italian FaceBook Pages. And I have no Italian read, writing or speaking capabilities at all.
And the only one that made sense to me was a link for an L.E.D. light mfr. located in Italy.
Others led me to odd references to some guys who worked on one of Ferrari's race teams.
i would expect some Big news real soon.

I 'thin' Ford may have visited this website:
http://superlitecars.com/gallery-slc/
'Car will accept engines all the way up to a 572 Rat. 'Was world champ in its class and set numerous class/track records the first or second year out... I think that was in 2011??? The site covers that somewhere.

or it Could be the the prototype for 2015 when the 2 DP series merge.
Waay too much wing for John Force!
I was wrong by a year. New car for combined series.
2014 DP for Daytona. V-6 TT EcoBoost.
Michael Shank Racing to campaign with Roush/Yates ding the motor work.

Ford pulled the Force Racing sponsorship. Just wondered where it got redirected to. A little tongue in cheek.
I'd like to get a better listen to this thing. Ford is really going all in with this power plant, but not sure how awesome it's going to sound. 600 hp corked for competition, can run up to 750 hp.

Just delighted to see Ford invest in something other than NASCAR.
Showcasing Ecoboost technology would be aligned with IndyCar. Hate seeing GM and or Honda walk away with this segment..
