Anybody know what day(s) it'll be out on the track? I'll have to make sure I have a good spot to see it.

Yep, part of BOP.
The road version has far more HP.

The FIA race version is still a very nice and has it's own form of high end uniqueness.
This short promotional vid is a few years old and shows dated packaging. This link has some pretty nice info and photos. Unfortunately I can not link to them, so here is the link to the page. It is easy to jump to other engines from the Roush Yates stable too. This is all more up to date: https://roushyates.com/engines/ford-...6-race-engine/ |

It's kind of suprising they didn't make some to GT3 specs. |

Matech (i think) built GT3 Spec "retro" GT's. I think there were a few others too.

Torsion bars ftw.
Ryan Briscoe was interviewed and said the car was a show car, not one of the racers and had no setup whatsoever. He went on to say that because of that it wasn't being pushed.
