Yeah.

Henry Ford Jr. had it purpose built to win LeMans after Enzo Ferrari scuttled a deal for Ford to buy Ferrari's racing division. Ford was so pissed off that he essentially spared no expense to try to build a LeMans car in about 18 months.

After a couple of stumbles, the 2nd (maybe 3rd) iteration of it just dominated everything. Won pretty much every race they entered it in.

All because a rich guy got his feelings hurt.

Ford vs. Ferrari, good flick. I'm not sure how accurate it reflected the actual story though.

Loved that movie.

But you'll get the straight dope if you watch "The 24 Hour War" on Netflix.

A must watch documentary for old car fans.

Couldn't find this on Netflix last night. Found it on Pluto. It's real good.
