Does your GT40 attract attention?

[Julian]

My experience is not what you might think, in order of attracting attention, photos from cell phones while driving and generating discussion when stopped the order I see is 3. GT40 2. Ultima 1. Pantera

If you want the attention without the build hassle and you like some creature comforts the Pantera is still a bargain IMHO.

The occasion? 5 minutes and photoshop!

Nope. Doesn't attract any attention at all.

PS. Borrowed "Samantha" from the FIAT Booth. She was very kind.

I know the GT40 attracts a lot of attention and being a Ford guy that's why I went with it, but after I'm done with it, I plan to build a DDR GT8 next: DDR Motorsport

I've chatted with the main guy there (Diego) and he said the engine bay will work for the Ford Coyote 5.0 so you could at least stay with a Ford power plant and have one heck of a good looking car that would attract the attention you want for sure.

To each his own, but, although I do like certain parts of the GT8's profile better, IMHO the more radical looking RCR SL-C would command far more attention over all...if that's what you're after...not to mention the fact that actual race results demonstrate that the SL-C is just as fast as it looks. I don't know whether the latter can be said of the GT8 (because I didn't know the GT8 existed until your post above).

'Just my totally unsolicited 2 cents, sir...

The RCR SL-C is a great car for sure, but the guy said he is a Ford lover and that car won't work with the newer Ford modular engines (I've asked them...and Factory Five with their super car as well) and the GT8, IMHO, looks a world better and can be built for less money too. As for racing, that I am not sure of. I know that is also part of why I went with the GT40 and the builder I did as the chassis meets requirements for racing in the UK (and my guess is the US too, but I have yet to verify that).
