I appreciate how you said that and agree 100%

The beauty in this is Al came out on day 1 to say on camera...this is a track car. This is legal on the street but not friendly.


All the magazines can do at that point is nod in agreement or, go in some crazy direction and say it's fine on the streets of Detroit.

Ford forums will no doubt persecute it as not applicable since it 'cannot' be driven on the road.
