Default Does lower ford sales + GEC = no GTHO

The four most famous letters in the Australian performance world, (GTHO) have been bandied on more than a few occasions since FPV were formed in 2002. Last I read some time ago, was that it was gonna be a ‘track day special’ that the EVO and WRX would not be able to beat. Then there was talk of different engine configurations, including of course, very early in the FPV history, that ‘V10’ that was bandied about. The Hurricane?
Do you guys think that the current GEC, combined with Ford Australias own problems, (can they be separated?) will mean that those letters may never appear again?
i recon that if ford did a ‘dress up’ anniversary GTHO special, with a few commemorative labels stuck on the sides including the superoo sticker, that it would be a shame.
In the current economic climate, does FPV have the balls and resources to produce a GTHO ‘track day special’, that cant be beaten? If they cant or wont, would you buy a stickers and fancy wheels GTHO ‘anniversary special’?
