Here's where you can see the Ford GT race in 2016

The vast majority of us will never get to drive the new Ford GT. Racing fans can, however, look forward to watching it race on tracks around the world. And with parallel entries in both the IMSA United SportsCar Championship and the FIA World Endurance Championship, Dearborn's new supercar will have a very busy schedule. So no matter where you live across the United States or around the world, chances are it'll be racing at a track near you. Chip Ganassi Racing will be campaigning the Ford GT here in America starting off in Florida at Daytona, then at Sebring. From there the circus crosses to the opposite coast to hit Long Beach and Laguna Seca in Florida, then heads north to Watkins Glen in upstate New York, Mosport in Canada, Lime Rock in Connecticut, and Road America in Wisconsin. Then it's down south again to VIR in Virginia, the Circuit of the Americas in Texas, and Road Atlanta in Georgia. Meanwhile overseas, Ganassi will be teaming up with Multimatic to field the new in the WEC that kicks off at Silvestone. Then it's off to Spa before the headline event at Le Mans. The Nurburgring is next, followed by Mexico and Austin, before heading over to Asia for races in Japan, Shanghai, and Bahrain. Drum up your level of excitement with the video below, featuring the big man Chip Ganassi himself and footage of the competition-spec Ford GT lapping Mosport. Related Video:

Aussie Ford Falcon GT shows its rear end to Lamborghini Gallardo

When Ford Australia announces, as it did recently, that it wants to celebrate the end of its Ford Performance Vehicle division with a Falcon FPV GT-F that celebrates big-bore origins of the nameplate, it's talking about the kind of car in this video.
At some point the classic Falcon GT - said to be an XY series - was invited to a test of acceleration against a Lamborghini Gallardo. At the very least, the Falcon GT had a 351 cubic-inch motor and 300 horsepower, but whatever this guy's got under the hood of his yellow sedan makes has him so confident that he doesn't even move his elbow from its resting place on the door.
You'll find a reminder of Ford Australia's heyday, a raucous exhaust note and some NSFW language in the short video below.
