GT2 vs FGT
GT2 vs FGT
FGT is tuned, so outcome wasn't a surprise to anybody.
i'm a Porsche guy obviously, but the Ford is just a beautiful machine. and insane high speed stability.

Looks like the FGT has a larger than stock displacement Whipple Supercharger on the car so depending on the pulley and gas used, it could put out 1000HP realiably with the stock bottom end. I have a similar setup on my car which costed less than $13K w/ exhaust. Along with Moton Motorsport shocks, the car handles better than my other 6GT3, Challenge Stradale, and 997TT but not quite as sharp as my Lotus on Ohlins. If you have not driven a properly sorted (like a 997TT, it is only so so w/o the mods) FGT, you owe it to yourself to find out if you are a true car guy.
I love me some white 08 GT2. One of my favs along with the FGT. Not too fond of the yellow FGT but absolutely love em in the white/blue stripe and red/white stripe colors. Fast modded FGT. Would have been close stock to stock.

FORD GT info
I think this article in the FORD GT forum may answer some of the questions raied here;

Please be more specific regarding the handling of the FGT - all of the owners I have spoken with have said that it feels like a "big car" and it is not nearly as "tight and precise" as their respective Porsches or Ferraris. Do the Motons hide the mass? Is it as fun/visceral as the GT3 or CS?
Same I've heard, along with overheating issues, at least on a track. I remember a few showing up at Road Atlanta and me passing them continuously in an E39 M5. Would love to see one driven in anger, if it can last.
This might be the least aggressively tracked supercar on the planet. I honestly can't think of another car I've seen less track addicts with than this one. But no doubt it'll make tons of power with the SC (It's a Ford).
However comparing Motons on one car to stock suspensions on other cars is very apples to oranges.
