Yes, and my buddy, Joey Hand, will be piloting one of the Ford GTs. Ford is “all in” on the move from the Prototype class to the GTLM class and badly want to win Le Mans on the 50th anniversary of their last win, with the Ford GT40 in 1966.

While the production Ford GT may produce 600+ horse power, entrants in the GTLM class of the Tudor series are limited to around 435 hp. The Prototype class cars produce 500 or more hp.
