i wonder how much backing they have from Ford if any. Sad to see no americans have recognized the racing potential/history behind this car, that i know of anyway.

I'm guessing Matech received very little to no funding when they ran in the GT3 class. Now that they have stepped up to GT1 Ford is probably throwing them a couple bucks, but nuthin' like them there circle trac boyz git. :roll: Regardless, it is a shame that this car/team isn't more widely publicized but the way Ford looks at it is they can't sell and market a car that they no longer build.
In the end it is always about making a dollar.  A couple pics of the Matech GT3 FGT taken at the All-Ford event in Carlisle this past summer. ![[Image: Carlisle2009030-1.jpg?t=1260940087]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii245/fiveoh2go/Carlisle2009030-1.jpg?t=1260940087) ![[Image: Carlisle2009029-1.jpg?t=1260940112]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii245/fiveoh2go/Carlisle2009029-1.jpg?t=1260940112)
