Ford GT GTE/GTLM v1.6

On 12 June 2015, at Le Mans, it was announced that Ford will return to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2016 with a factory-supported, four-car effort operating as Ford Chip Ganassi Racing. The Ford Chip Ganassi Racing cars campaigned in both the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and the FIA World Endurance Championship. The car debuted at the 2016 24 Hours of Daytona on January 30–31 finishing seventh and ninth in class.

On June 19, 2016 the Number 68 Ford GT of Ford Chip Ganassi Racing finished 1st at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMGTE Pro class; the victory marked 50 years after Ford won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966, where they came in 1st, 2nd and 3rd with the GT40. In the 2016 6 Hours of Fuji and the 6 Hours of Shanghai, both the Ford GT’s finished 1-2 at both races, the 67 winning both and the 66 coming second in both.

In the opening WEC race at Silverstone, the #67 Ford GT took victory. 2 races later on June 19, 2017 the Number 67 Ford GT of Ford Chip Ganassi Racing finished runner up at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMGTE Pro class; this time 50 years after the 2nd Le Mans Race win in 1967.

Note for missing sounds :

this car use the same sounds like the GRID GT Ford GT GT1 2010.
i haven’t added this sounds into this package to save webspace.

if you haven’t installed this car yet you can get it here :
GRID GT Ford GT GT1 2010

i recommend always to DELETE FIRST any previous versions of this car / mod to prevent crashes / mismatches !

for that, navigate into your “GTR2\GameData\Teams\GRID_GT\…” directory and delete the complete folder “Ford GT Teams” – done.

to install, extract with WinRAR or else and drop the GameData folder into your GTR2 main-directory – allow to overwrite existing one with “YES ALL” – done.

no original GTR2 files will be overwritten.
