[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 15659737, member: 20202"] The announcement of the Demon threw Ford GT500 program into a tailspin as that will be a tall hurdle to overcome which may have put the whole GT500 program in jeopardy. If Ford was to top the power of the Demon it would likely need to be turbocharged to overcome it's smaller displacement and my understanding is Ford does not have an engine platform capable of reliably holding anything north of 700 hp let alone the 800 hp of it competitors engine. I hope I'm wrong about this. The Demon may be a "bridge too far" for Ford to follow with regard to the investment needed to compete for Top Dog status on a very limited production car. The bean counters are funneling all the resources toward hybrid, electric and autonomous vehicles which is where the money wil be made. I stopped leaving the porch light on for an announcement from Ford. Who knows? the Last GT500 may have already been made. [/QUOTE]
