Yea, back in 1962 Ford was going to buy into Ferrari. Things were good until Ford started talking on how THEY wanted to run the racing division. That's when Ferrari said "See Ya Latter, Much Latter". Henry 2 got so pissed off he wanted to beat Ferrari at his own game (the racing part). After a little fine tuning in 1966 Ford won Le Man's 1st,2nd,3rd (Porsche came in 4th,5th,6th & 7th). Then won LeMan's in 67,68,69 four years straight! The Europeans got so pissed they changed the rules in 1970 so the GT's could'nt race in LeMan's. And that's the rest of the story.
