The win recalled the dominating drive by Ken Miles in the No. 1 GT40 MkII that ended in a dead heat and robbed the talented English expatriate of a sure Triple Crown in that year\u2019s FIA Manufacturers Championship after outright wins at Daytona and Sebring. To honor the spirited Miles\u2014who was also Carroll Shelby\u2019s close friend, Shelby American\u2019s Competition Director and a supremely gifted driver\/engineer\u2014this 2020 Ford GT MkII, one of just 45 slated for production, exists as the only one finished in the livery worn by Miles\u2019 legendary Le Mans racer.

That car, of course, was the legendary Ford GT40 MkII, three of which rolled across the finish line in formation to complete a controversial dead-heat sweep of the 1966 French endurance classic. The MkII\u2019s 1966 victory began a four-year consecutive overall win record for the GT40 that broke Ferrari\u2019s stranglehold on Le Mans once and for all, to this very day. That\u2019s a tough act to follow, but 40 years later Ford revived the concept with the brilliantly designed and executed 2005-06 GT that paid its respects to the original with blistering performance born of sophisticated technology and brute power.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-763167\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/02-2-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A decade later, Ford returned to the well to produce its latest and greatest GT, a car designed first and foremost to win the LM GTE-Pro class in the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. The all-new GT fulfilled its mission when Chip Ganassi Racing\u2019s entries took four of the top 10 spots, including first and third places. Of course, homologation rules requiring a minimum number of street-legal cars resulted in the most advanced road-going Ford ever in the form of the third-generation GT. But Ford and its partners at Multimatic, the Oshawa, Ontario, advanced engineering firm that manufactures the GT, were not finished. At the 2019 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the two companies revealed the limited-edition GT MkII\u2014the most advanced and exclusive Ford Track Car in the company\u2019s 118-year history.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/03-2-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/04-2-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure>\n<p>Unencumbered by road or racing rules, regulations and limitations of any kind, Ford and Multimatic unleashed the full performance potential of the GT, already a supercar by any definition and loaded with advanced racing technology from the outset.<\/p>\n<p>Like any great concept, the GT\u2019s fundamentals remain intact: a hand-crafted carbon fiber chassis and body with integrated roll cage; F1-inspired wishbone suspension with pushrod-actuated shocks; carbon-ceramic disc brakes and the compact but powerful EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V-6 engine.<\/p>\n<p>To begin the transformation to unbridled track monster, Multimatic shaved 200 pounds from the GT, most of it by dispensing with the adjustable ride height equipment and specifying its own five-way adjustable race-derived DSSV dampers with blow-off to eliminate harsh ride feel at high speeds. The MkII retains the GT\u2019s 15.5-inch front and 14.1-inch rear Brembo carbon-ceramic brake rotors, but unique 19-inch Forgeline forged alloy wheels were paired with super-sticky Michelin Pilot Sport GT racing slicks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-763170\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/05-2-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"lot-desc-more\">\n<p>FIA Le Mans regulations held the racing GTs V-6 to 500 HP, while the road version makes 647; with no government or sanctioning body rules to hold them back, Ford Performance power engineers extracted another 50 HP from the MkII version for a full 700 HP and even more torque than the GT\u2019s 550 lb-ft.

First, they dispensed with the road GT\u2019s articulated rear wing\u2014which flips up during high-speed braking to add extra stopping and stabilizing power\u2014and replaced it with a massive fixed dual-element wing that adds 250 pounds more downforce than the wing used on the 2016 Le Mans-winning race GT and would be illegal in any sanctioned racing series. Louvered carbon-fiber vents in the front fenders decrease front-end lift in concert with a huge front splitter developed for the Le Mans racer but that also proved illegal. The full Le Mans rear diffuser, a redesigned floor pan and front dive planes also made their way to the MkII. With the ride height set at just 56mm, these modifications produce approximately 1,900 pounds of downforce, some 350 more than the Le Mans car. With the additional grip provided by the racing Michelins, the MkII is capable of generating well over 2 Gs of lateral acceleration.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-763173\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/08-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more efficient cooling, the MkII\u2019s EcoBoost V-6 features a high-capacity air-to-air outboard-mounted charge air cooler with water spray technology and a roof-mounted air intake to feed the auxiliary engine, clutch and transmission coolers.
