Certainly Bentley's MD/CEO implied he wanted to race something. LM24 was pretty much rulled out, but GT seemed to be his target. I started a thread based on an interview in Motor magazine, about a year back?
I don't see Ford building a GT replacement anytime soon...
I am intrigued by the thought of a GT3 with FWD. It's not barred in the rules, and I don't see why, fundamentally, it shouldn't work, and work well.
I'd be surprised if Jag DID go GT3, TBH. The Apex XK-rs never had much factory support, the VLN XK-F is a pure private venture...
