A coworker said his father was a Ford racing engineer that worked on the GT40 program. He was at Le Mans for the races, which must have cool. Not confirmed but he wasn't a major bullshitter... just a minor one... he was a pilot after all.
If you get the chance, watch the making of the movie Grand Prix (1966, James Garner). They used modified GT40s as camera cars and filmed after race weekends at F1 venues. Fantastic movie BTW. Its out on bluray.
True story - I want to build a Daytona Coupe kit car. That car blows my skirt up more than the GT40.
This is me in turn 4 at Willow Springs International Raceway.Pics

A movie with all my heroes and about my favorite cars, I'm in!
OK, if any Ford Cobra/GT40 enthusiast is in Las Vegas and wants to be picked up in a Ford GT for lunch at Chick-Fil-A, let me know. My treat.
I'll be there in September to hike Charleston. Would stop in Henderson just to gawk.
Movie looks amazing.

Beware of my temper, and the dog that I've found...
A little advance notice is all I need. And that's for anyone considering a ride to lunch.

An acquaintance of mine and local Elk Grove racer Joey Hand was one of the winners of 24 hours of Le mans 2016 in the Ford GT which was the 50th anniversary from their original win which this movie is based off of.
He's back at it again this year
