Its a crime all these GT3 fights were left out in the broadcast and acted as if they were just filler cars compared to the hypercars when they were way further from that.
Absolutely agree. I understand separate 24 hours coverage dedicated to both Hyper and GT's would cost too much, but GT cars deserve at least dedicated streaming coverage for local times, 4pm-sunset 1-1:30 am, 5am to sunrise, and 2-4 pm. That is only about 10 hours.
It was so annoying. Watching the leader board gave a better idea of what was going on in GT. You could see the fords pacing hard, pushing out. Not a thing about it on the broadcast. A handful of hypercars fighting it out for 24 hours. So disappointing.
Not just the Ford no. 88, but the Ford no. 44's result also turned out to be great, with former finishing on the podium @3rd and latter finishing @4th in lmgt3 class. Great results for the Mustangs🔥
I think the #77 Mustang had a legit chance to win, but got taken out by a bonehead move from a P2 car, I watched the replays and the P2 had no chance, but tried to dive bomb the Mustang anyway, sending the #77 to the garage for a long repair. Best part of the whole incident, both the #77 and the P2 car ended up in the gravel trap, the corner marshalls removed the Mustang before the P2, karma is a bitch. If I'm not mistaken I think the #77 may have had the fastest race lap in GT3, if not they were near the fastest. Ford did a great job for a first year car, Corvette not so much, unfortunately.
Ford, Multimatic, and Proton did an amazing job at Le Mans. I hope this is just a preview for the rest of the season. I'm sure they took home a lot of useful information for developing the car. Can't wait to see how the rest of the season goes and I hope they get their first win of the season this year. They definitely deserve it.
I am no FORD fan.....!!!...But this Mustang opened my eyes ...they are stupendously quick....I am impressed...!!!....a Mustang that passes.......a Mclaren?????.......CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!
"A mustang that passes a mclaren". You know, being the literal fastest car on the road ISN'T "necessarily what rich people want". Sometimes it's about a HAND MADE CAR. Sometimes its about a unique appearance that other cars don't have. (Do not even TRY to come here and tell me the mustang has a unique or iconic design). The mustang is as lame and mediocre as minivans or a prius. You know what MAYBE this is a really good car, but it's still a mustang. I don't get why you're so surprised or whats confusing you. You act like the mustang is some "bestowed from heaven" type gift. No, it's a production car made by robots. "A mustang that passes a mclaren". You should take back that shit eating statement because it means nothing. The tortoise does indeed occasionally beat the hare. Doesn't mean the tortoise suddenly looks cuter. Doesn't mean I wanna take the tortoise home as a pet. No, I'm still probably gonna pick the hare, aka the mclaren. For starters, it's more likely to be awd, so that alone makes it better than mustangs. I guess my point is you need to stop. You're unnecessarily and needlessly sucking fords dick, and nobody at that company deserves it. At the end of the day, the appearance of a sports car matters AS MUCH AS how it performs, so yeah obviously nobody should be surprised to ever see a mclaren on the road
@kingalfred3902 I find it really sad to see anybody hyping up a Ford. At the end of the day, it's just a piece of shit ugly ass mustang. A regular ass production car. MAYBE when you get a little more money, you end up thinking "hmm I don't HAVE to buy a piece of shit ugly ass mustang anymore, I can buy a mclaren", so that's what they do. Appearance matters as much as the engine does, and considering the engine underneath mclarens, I'm actually not surprised to see a mustang racing one. Just a super quick Google search shows one of the engines mclaren uses is a fucking v8. Ford makes a v8, and the one in the race isn't even a "regular road model". It's heavily modified for racing. All I see in your comment is shit talking towards the mclaren, and praise upon the mustang as if it was given to us by the gods. Grow up. You're acting like a child. "A sports car designed for racing passed a sports car designed for racing, better freak the fuck out". I don't get it, wanna explain?
I second this. Race highlights from the official le mans channels were just the accidents and the hours mong safety car. It's annoying. Thanks Gooved Slicks!
The Mustang GT3 that Ford co-developed with Multimatic had a very strong V8 engine, DSSV dampers, and rear-mounted transaxle, which proved to be quite reliable. The only issues it had were some of its body parts, such as the massive rear wing and rear diffuser, which got damaged in certain races like the Daytona 24 hrs. I'm very happy fixed some issues proving at Le Mans that the car is competitiveve, been rooting for the Mustang GT3 ever since the announcement of Ford's return to IMSA and WEC!
I’ve always been a fan of Ford and their storied history of the GT40 during the 60s and their development for LeMans leading up to 2016. Thanks for this video, as a Mustang owner myself, I’m glad to see them at LeMans!!
You’re channel is such a great service to endurance racing fans dude. even after watching the races the story lines you present make them even more enjoyable. Genuinely look forward to your videos as much as the races themselves.
Thanks again for another cool video! I was listening to the coverage at home and heard the steering rack broke. What a debut! The team worked their butt’s off and the car was able to finish! Sister car 3rd in class. Bravo!
The Mustang turned into the working man's supercar! Comes stock with 4 wheel disc brakes and 4 wheel independent suspension and 450hp at entry level GT.
Thank you so much for doing these videos!!! The amount of content that can be done from this race alone is amazing. Would love to see what happened in more details with the Proton 88 and the Penske's #6, really think they had a shot at the podium.
Incredible video! As an F1 fan that is new to endurance racing, it would be really helpful if there was a small track map with the current position of the car to keep reference as to where it is on the track :)
Thank you again for bringing more life to racing. So many stories in this race to talk about and the mustang is one not to miss. I don't care much for drive to survive since 5% is about racing. I watch imsa and wec with much better context since seeing your videos.
Bro! I was watching this live of Ford's TH-cam page. The mustang and 720s was some of best battling I've seen since the ford gt & Porsche in 2018 (imo) The 720s top end speed is ridiculous lmao
This looks like an absolute blast! When your Mustang keeps pace with a McLaren...You know it's a good car but the second driver was definetly struggling😁👍
Greetings from Colorado! Well DONE, mate! As a 'Bronze' level watcher/fan, I really appreciate the blow-by-blow, corner-by-corner, 1st hand watching/navigation commentary. By including the names of the legendary corners in conjunction with the strategy details, you've brought this short TH-cam 'stint' you bring me where I've NEVER more enjoyed the watching of God's own race. Thanks
2 hours 20 min racing is a lot! I did 1.6 hours in a touring car i felt fatigue and had tunnel vision at the end. I couldn't stand up for 15min at the end of the race but fortunately we won the 4-hour Enduro
My first time on your feed and I'm mega impressed with your delivery, measured commentary, and excellent knowledge of the track and drivers. Easily as good as the people who get paid to commentate. Really good to see a focus on the GT3s, and your piece showed the early battles which, of course weren't shown on the official broadcast. I love the WEC, but have to say IMSA gets my vote as all races are free & no ads! I suppose there won't be a Corvette one, as no onboards? The Caddys had an eventful race, it's strange that they seem to do better or have more luck in the US? Greetings from the UK🇬🇧
Its a crime all these GT3 fights were left out in the broadcast and acted as if they were just filler cars compared to the hypercars when they were way further from that.
On top of this the hypercar series with BOP and sandbagging is a shell of its former classes IMO.
Thank you for actually covering the GT class! With that broadcast you'd swear only the hypercars were racing.
Absolutely agree. I understand separate 24 hours coverage dedicated to both Hyper and GT's would cost too much, but GT cars deserve at least dedicated streaming coverage for local times, 4pm-sunset 1-1:30 am, 5am to sunrise, and 2-4 pm. That is only about 10 hours.
Yea it’s unfortunate that’s how the broadcast is done. I wish they’d do 2 broadcast covering the classes. The gt class is so cool
Agree. Very annoying. At least show the GT leaderboard more often.
It was so annoying. Watching the leader board gave a better idea of what was going on in GT. You could see the fords pacing hard, pushing out. Not a thing about it on the broadcast. A handful of hypercars fighting it out for 24 hours. So disappointing.
Facts
You have such a skill to find thsese story lines that are not in the lime light. It's great to also see some actual GT3 coverage...
Proud of Ford and Mustang!
Those mustangs are beautiful, man
Not just the Ford no. 88, but the Ford no. 44's result also turned out to be great, with former finishing on the podium @3rd and latter finishing @4th in lmgt3 class. Great results for the Mustangs🔥

I nearly got trough the full 24h! This was Amazing from Ford! THX for that really well done comment!
Thats insane! I gave up on try to stay up for the whole race about a decade ago 😅
Ford, Multimatic, and Proton did an amazing job at Le Mans. I hope this is just a preview for the rest of the season. I'm sure they took home a lot of useful information for developing the car. Can't wait to see how the rest of the season goes and I hope they get their first win of the season this year. They definitely deserve it.
Malaysian made Proton raced in LeMans? That's incredible!
I am no FORD fan.....!!!...But this Mustang opened my eyes ...they are stupendously quick....I am impressed...!!!....a Mustang that passes.......a Mclaren?????.......CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!
Same man, the prestige of finishing on a podium first try cannot be understated.

Thank you man! This year the tv coverage of GT was almost non existent! Any chance you’ll do a video also on Ferrari’s win?🤞
I second this. Race highlights from the official le mans channels were just the accidents and the hours mong safety car. It's annoying. Thanks Gooved Slicks!
I thought the Manthey Porsche won the GT class...? but Porsche did not provide any onboard cameras.
@@eis_baer918 ferrari got 1st and 3rd in hyper car, porsche in lmgt3

Can't wait for the first Mustang GTD reviews !!
I’ve always been a fan of Ford and their storied history of the GT40 during the 60s and their development for LeMans leading up to 2016. Thanks for this video, as a Mustang owner myself, I’m glad to see them at LeMans!!
I'm so glad you are giving light to this story. The Live broadcast forgot GT3s weren't just track features for the hyper cars.
Yea live broadcasts of Endurance races are just 90% Hypercar/prototypes and 10% GTD/GT3. Hate it cause these are the cars we can actually drive
Multimatic knows how to set up a race winning car. I wouldn’t be surprised if this car becomes very competitive throughout the year.
Babe Wake up, new Grooved Slick Video just dropped!
So real
Literally my first thought when I saw the thumbnail on my feed
This ain't FourEyes
You’re channel is such a great service to endurance racing fans dude. even after watching the races the story lines you present make them even more enjoyable. Genuinely look forward to your videos as much as the races themselves.
Not really
Great job covering GT class, Ford a third not bad for its first time there
This blue Mustang is fenomenal. So beautiful
When Ford went to Le Mans this year, they really said: "Let the Mustang GT3 COOK and prove it's worth alongside the competition."
One year ago, we had garage 56, this year we have mustang gt3
#77 could probably win the class if not for the steering issues it suffered during the early hours of the race.
The Number 88 Mustang finished 3rd in the LMGT3 class
I’m so irrationally happy. This was exactly the first Le Mans video I hoped you’d make. It was just a dream. Yet here we are
Haha you read my mind!
@@GroovedSlick I love the Mustang as a proper GT3 car so much! Fair to say you’re a fan as well?
This video is the best video on Le Mans I've seen yet! FIA needs to sign you up to make their onboard movies.
No they don't
Dang, I can’t believe we missed this entire battle. Thanks for highlighting it!
I freaking love all these videos!
You're really helping share how awesome motorsport racing is.
Agree 100% with this comment!
Really glad you are enjoying man, and glad you think so!!
I see grooved slick, i click
That back up camera, marking targets so you know when the protos are coming, is pretty insane.
Thanks again for another cool video! I was listening to the coverage at home and heard the steering rack broke. What a debut! The team worked their butt’s off and the car was able to finish! Sister car 3rd in class. Bravo!
Thank you for giving the world shotgun seat, also has amazing commentary, I watched about 12 hours of the race
The Mustang turned into the working man's supercar! Comes stock with 4 wheel disc brakes and 4 wheel independent suspension and 450hp at entry level GT.
Lmao. This isn’t a regular mustang bro. The consumer version of the lemans car isn’t a working man’s car it’s over 300k.
Absolutely stellar video! I love the simple setup with good commentary and great editing. Thanks for highlighting the ford expedition!
We got freedom at le mans for the second time this decade 🗣🔥
Dude you need to narrate all the Mustang races. I’ll watch the videos if you narrate the Mustang ones.
How many different races through lemans are you gonna upload my glorious favorite motor sports TH-camr. Or is this the only one. I NEED MORE
I love it. I just want some ford wins
This is incredible footage dude, thank you for posting!
Sounded so good. Nice to have Mustangs and the Cadillac Hypercar for audio enjoyment.
Great voice over and good clips of the action this car saw! Thanks for the video
Great commentary as always. Btw was there an onboard camera on the no 88 Mustang? A video about the first podium for this car could be cool.
Outstanding narration, thank you!
Also, Love the sound of V8!!!
Way to go Mustang!
First time seeing a race like this. You did an outstanding job. Very interesting.
You make this way more entertaining, great job
I've never watched a LeMans race before, let alone commentary on one, but yours was amazing man keep it up !
Thank you so much for doing these videos!!! The amount of content that can be done from this race alone is amazing. Would love to see what happened in more details with the Proton 88 and the Penske's #6, really think they had a shot at the podium.
Dude that mustang looks GOOD like damn
It’s good to see the Mustang out there running with the big boys
Great narrations 🔥 that GTD was eatin 🔥🔥🔥
Incredible video! As an F1 fan that is new to endurance racing, it would be really helpful if there was a small track map with the current position of the car to keep reference as to where it is on the track :)
I was watching the Mustang during the race. Very nice looking car. Very nice to watch it.
Another execellent video, thanks for covering WEC with such enthusiasm
You literaly make me feel more exiting that the real le mans
Love the stories you share with us.
Babe wake up!! New Le Mans video!!
Super awesome made all of those battles Very exciting with the narration on the straight with the manthey Porsche pretty sweet.
Good speed for a car that is not as aerodynamic as its competitors!
This video shows the talent of these drivers. The aerodynamics of the Ford needs a Adrian Newey touch up.
Here's hoping for a win next year. Very impressive pace for a first year car at le mans.
Great video, I absolutely love these. Admittedly, I love them more when they feature the Corvette.
Great commentary. Thank you for this video! :)😃
Thank you again for bringing more life to racing. So many stories in this race to talk about and the mustang is one not to miss. I don't care much for drive to survive since 5% is about racing. I watch imsa and wec with much better context since seeing your videos.
It always amazes me how little racing is shown most racing documentaries. Real drama happens on the track IMO
Better highlights then wec
Bro! I was watching this live of Ford's TH-cam page. The mustang and 720s was some of best battling I've seen since the ford gt & Porsche in 2018 (imo) The 720s top end speed is ridiculous lmao
I was watching that same stream. Agreed about the battle, it was just incredible. I almost cried when the steering rack broke. haha
Great video! Thank you for putting in the time to bring this to us. Subbed.
Thanks!!
Great review, man that Mustang sounds amazing 👏
This looks like an absolute blast!
When your Mustang keeps pace with a McLaren...You know it's a good car but the second driver was definetly struggling😁👍
One of THE sounds of the race [still nowhere near the GT40's Cleveland with those awesome cross-over 'bunch of snakes']
Would love to watch like an hour long version of this covering the full 24 hours of a another car. The story telling is incredible
The narration makes it more enjoyable!
Great video brilliant race and fantastic MUSTANG best show ever thank you so very much for covering this race. Thank you 😅from
Sydney Australia 😊😊😊
Hi from the other side of the world! Glad you are enjoying!
Get video as always Grooved Slick. Can't wait for the Glen 6h and Spa 24h videos!!
Ford was the reason why I tuned into the event
Great narration
That 5.4 sounds magnificent
I drove the USA in a Mustang in 2000 ..13 thousand miles in three weeks 😊
I firmly believe the #77 would’ve had a shot at the class win if it didn’t have technical problems
That digital rearview is awesome, it is highlighting people behind him with a green arrow. Some decent software there...
This was awesome! Subbed.

Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed even if I did miss a couple braking points and hit the limiter a few times
Worth that price
Gr8 narrating and video.
Would love to hear that coyote engine in a production mustang would be a dream come true
I hope you make more videos on just this lemans race because it had so much stories.
You will be very successful my friend , fantastic video , i need to go hop in my mustang now on iracing xD
Thats exactly what I did as soon as I finished recording xD
The Mustang has pretty good straight line speed
The broadcasters seemed to mot notice the LMP2 and LMGT3 classes. Insane!
Ford has made a good job so far in this year, the Mustang 77 surprised me when they were leading and they will be back stronger.
Good video ❤
glad you enjoyed!
That’s some nice commentary
these are such awesome videos
2 hours 20 min racing is a lot! I did 1.6 hours in a touring car i felt fatigue and had tunnel vision at the end. I couldn't stand up for 15min at the end of the race but fortunately we won the 4-hour Enduro
If the 77 didnt have problems it probably wouldve fought for victory and i feel like mans suit this car like it does with cadillac and ferrari
I hope we get multiple Le Mans videos

U knw ur listening to a good commentator when u can close ur eyes and still see the action
Subscribed!!
still so sad #77 broke its steering rack :(
Yoy this commutator hats off to you sir
Ford The American Bad Ass!!
Can't believe barely any of this made the broadcast
