Okay some results incoming:
Ford GT GT2 race car (white):
TCS:5
ABS:1
Weight:1300kg (ballast)
HP: 450
Tranny:174
Track Traction:real
Best time after 5 laps@Madrid:1:24.311
Circuito de Madrid_2 by All Work and No Play, on Flickr
Ford GT GT1 test car (black/at GT2 settings, same as the race car version):
Best time after 5 laps: 1:24.221

Findings: I drove both cars with the "hood" view because one is standard and the other is premium and the cockpit view has a way different feel overall. Suspensions were tuned slightly differently but that was the only thing. The race car had maybe a little bit sturdier handling and a noticably more stable/shorter brake line, yet since I'm used to the test car I was able to squeeze out a little more time. The test car may have slightly better overall acceleration and whatnot, though overall it's much more unsturdy and loses time in the corners versus the race car. This is especially true with the increased weight of GT2. I actually feel slightly more at a disadvantage in the test car because of the long braking times, however I prefer it for its cockpit view and it's very fun to drive.
I'll leave it up to race officials to review this information to see what they think for TTC and the future of their partnership with Ford.

Am I reading the specs right? 1300kg for the ZR1 RM? I'm having to add the full ballast to get it to meet specs.
