So I tried the new Ford #66 LeMans Racer. I tried it on the Old Mulsanne track and was only able to top it out at 184 mph in the back stretch. I adjusted the rear wings and was only able to get it to about 186 mph. It is nice, but the Bugatti Veyron is still my favorite. Here is a picture of my livery.

I noticed the low top speed as well when I drove the car for the first time in race 6 of 6 in career at the old mulsanne.  I turned the Aero all the way down & adjusted gears 6, 5 & 4 increased the top speed to ~205.  Adjusted or not, the acceleration of this car is inferior to the other GT cars & takes it awhile to catch the cars on the first straight.  Once you do, the adjusted top speed will get you past them.  I agree, the car as a whole, is missing some performance.  That was a disappointment. 

I am working on a vintage Gulf oil / GT40 livery for this car.  Which reminds me that I made all the graphics in FM4 years ago for the Robertson Ford GT race car.  But none of them can be transferred to the XB1!  Annoying.  I have a photo up in FM6 of the unfinished car.  Not sure when it will be done.  It's hard to find the hours to make decals again - like I used to 3 yrs ago.
