Man, you've got very professional and impressive content going. It's really impressive and I'm proud of how far you came and wager to see where you go. Been here since the supersnake GT500 and GT30 days. Don't ever forget where you come from!!
Speed Phenom Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you got to talk to Billy Johnson about the difference between Ford GTs and the All New Mustang GTD and I hope you and him get one because it would be absolutely incredible to you two on a Track together
Ok, I am a Mustang guy, but I just love performance cars.. .I don’t hate non Mustangs. The GTD just makes me salivate. I would take a GTD over any other car you could offer me.
Very cool how the common love for vehicles and technology came together. Also I like that references were pointed out throughout the video about performance features from different manufacturers repersenting the car market in a whole, pointing out the systems, software, and hardware that they share for the growth of the motor sports. Everyone is winning!
Excellent, informative discussion. I learned a ton about the GTD Mustang and am now even more eager to see it launched. Hope you're able to get your hands on one 👍
Good to see you with my friend Billy, from his early career …many years ago …when he just started racing, I met him with Jack Roush, at my local Ford Roush dealership in Shelby NC.
One of the things not mentioned was that Ford said they had weight goal for the GTD. I'm guessing that they want to get the car under 3,000 pounds. If so, that will be a better power to weight ratio than the GT3RS, and even the GT2 RS!
Guessing it won’t go that far down. It’s still a very large car with a very large engine. My guess is about 3400 lbs, which still gives it better power to weight than any Porsche outside of the 918. Even if it’s more, the Predator engine is underrated to begin with, so the actual power to weight will likely still be better even it weighs 3700..
A good in depth mechanical breakdown of this class of performance cars, acknowledging other supercar offerings in relation to the superb Ford GT & GTD Mustang.
I know ford is going to destroy their sub 7:00 min goal. The viper acr (a beautiful masterpice) goes 7:01 and some change. When you take into consideration the amount of technology in the mustang gtd that the viper didnt have and the extra 200 + hp, modern aero, suspension, etc... (I have been binge watching every GTD video I could find for the?past few days) the technoolgy is insaine and its being built by ford with everything they have learned from the GT350, Ford GT, GT500, and their gt3 racecar not to mention the help from MULTINATIC. I am confident the ford GTD will exceed expectations and go well under 7 min

Man, given how expensive the Mustang is getting it's a shame they didn't do a brand new chassis and at least dump the rear seats and convert the chassis to the SLA front and transaxle layout used in the GTD (no need for the pushrod suspension for a street car). At this point Ford should just cover the market GM abandoned when they went to the C8.
Did you watch the video? The car has an SLA front suspension and a Tremec transaxle. It's remained to be seen but I would guess the rear seats are no longer there in the GTD.
The Camaro zl1 is beating the GTD in time and is still less than $60k. The best lap time from my clone on GT 7 is 6:58.957 on the ring. Let’s see what ford actually gets.
@@HSstudio.Ytchnnlthe Demon is only fast in a straight line. Wouldn’t be any competition for the ZL1-1LE on a track and the GTD should smoke the ZL1-1LE, so not even close for the Demon. Straight line though it is fast…
The Magnesium Wheels are not just a better price, though, Magnesium can sustain impacts on the Track Curbs, and the Ribs behind. on Carbon Fiber Wheels they chip and crack. 👨🏻👍🏻🏎🏎🏁🏁🚩🚩
The strength to weight ratio of carbon is greater than magnesium. Therefore, a carbon wheel will not fail or crack for a given impact that will bend a magnesium or aluminum wheel.
@OneLapBilly Magnesium doesn't bend, as much as Carbon Resin would break down and loosen up with consistent braking... Carbon Brakes help with this, though to achieve going below the 7 minutes in the Nurburgring Nordschleifa, they have to brake hard and attack those curbs for 13 Miles
@OneLapBilly Consider this a Drive Shaft made of Carbon Fiber is better with torque on a vehicle with a Stock Ride height. If you lower the vehicle and not used a shorter length Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft. The Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft will explode in to a Million pieces. Trust me I have seen it.. Lowering the vehicle changes the angle and when launching the rear drops even lower. This would even make angle shorter. Look at American Muscle Mustang, and Stephanie's Mustang with the Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft...and you tell me it won't shatter into a million pieces. There great at twisted torque though compression inward and twisted torque not an ideal remedy. 🙋👍🏎🏁🚩 I once lowered a 1995 Mustang and the U-Joints exploded, and the Tech said you shouldn't have lowered it, and the weight of with a Pair of 12" Speakers didn't help either. Therefore, I went back to stock.
you can't ask for 300000$ and claim to be an underdog for reference here are the price for the latest supercars of today McLaren Artura 237000$ Maserati MC20 230000$ Porsche 992 gt3 RS 223800$ Porsche 992 turbo s 250000$ Chevrolet corvette c8 z06 115000$ And for comparing the price for the base mustang 31000$ I just don't understand how you can ask for more than a quarter of a million dollar and then say I'm an underdog Life doesn't work like that ford
Rednecks are still crying over the GT not being a V8? The car was only built to win Le Mans and it did that handily. It would have never won with a V8 for a multitude of reasons you wouldn't understand.
Isn't it amazing that both of these super cars are not built by Ford. They are i believe, made by a company named Multimatic, in Toronto Ontario Canada.
Ford should have made a V8 Ford GT instead of a Mustang. As a an actual Mustang enthusiast(and owner) the GT supercar will always be infinitely cooler than any Mustang … or any other American car.
Why not compare the GTD to the new variant Ford GT . They're both 800 horsepower but put the power down differently. The both have different weight and transmissions and suspensions . A much better comparison. Sooooooo ... where's the gtd in this video?
I hear a lot of butt kissing to perhaps get that application approved...JK of course I would be doing the same and feel your more then worthy of an approval. Love the content!
Is the GTD still getting its butt whooped by an older model camaro in its circuit bracket?? This video trying to hype people up for the 2026 F1 Ford engine for Redbull.
T why the hell you're wetting your panties over the GT when you have a barely disguised raceway with license plates. And the MkIV GT is a hair dried V-6. Mustangs worth mentioning (almost) invariably are V-8 powered. Nothing sounds like an American V-8 in the GTD is definitely what I want to hear emanating from the FRO of the car...
It’s not a mustang anymore. Just because you kept the shell on a super car doesn’t make it one. You get a Porsche GT3RS you can go straight to the track.

That was great! Here is your chance to get on the Ford racing team! You got it! Let's GOOOOO!
Billy is the man! So glad you got to hang out with him as he is such a wealth of information on all things Ford.

Billy is a world class driver. We both own heritage GT’s. Wealth of information from an expert

Ah, a Tuesday morning with Ford GT content! Thanks for the after-breakfest snack, Austin!
How stunning these cars..Ford is one of legendary and long standing successful brand in the world...that makes these vehicle more classic ..well done.
Great vid, loved it. Informative, fun and knowledgeable all round good guys. What a wicked GT and the GTD.... what a beast, so hot 🔥🔥🔥👍🏻
Nice job on this video! It's been a while since I have been watching and this is a nice technical video!
GTD is perfect Ford killed it. I’d def love to see a mid engine mustang tho💯
awesome video guys,i'm a Billy Johnson fan!

Very informative.
Impressed with the Contant very knowledgeable and hope to see more of this. Good luck.
Thank you very much!

Best of the best 🔥
The Mustang podiumed 3rd in it's debut at Le Mans, that's very impressive. The Mustang also smoked corvette as well.
5:00 The original idea/goal of the Ford GT
Cool vid. Really hoping you get the GTD.
Goooood morning and Thank You
You both have earned the opportunity to get your GTD.
Good Luck hope you get an invitation to purchase the GTD🏆

I think I read somewhere else that the GTD didn't have back seats,but I could be wrong.
The viper needs to come back and the big 3 well be on top on the track

thank you for sharing that GT40 ansom car

Great talk, need more track time
No one has a GTD as they haven’t started producing them yet

That rear end on the GTD looks a little like the Porsche GT10
Anyone hear anything about weight yet?
That car has some seriouse goods and aero so Im not worried there. The weight though.... thats important.
*FIRST*
LET'S GOOOOOO
Oh I get it now. So basically the Mustang GTD is the V8 Ford GT we all wanted from Ford. Ok, got it.
Rednecks are still crying over the GT not being a V8? The car was only built to win Le Mans and it did that handily. It would have never won with a V8 for a multitude of reasons you wouldn't understand.
Isn't it amazing that both of these super cars are not built by Ford. They are i believe, made by a company named Multimatic, in Toronto Ontario Canada.
My question is why didn't they go ahead and make the doors carbon
Why not call it GT4? For me sounds way cooler.
Don't post a video until you have it in hand. We get the views
Billy Eilish would've made this video viral.
There is no way you can’t build a GTD for wayyyy less than $300k
So I guess that Corvette ownership will take a slight decline now?
OK.... 😊 SO I KNOW THIS IS WAAAYYYY OFF TOPIC, BUUUTTTTTTTT.... DOES HE NOT SOUND LIKE ROBIN FROM THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE?!!!!
Look like racing game
Yea Ford needs to stop playing and make u part of the team whether it is racing or being part of the development team/testing
