Someone I trust at Ford told me that for 2018 , It is going to be Strongly CONSIDERED to go with Privateer Teams . Though I will believe it when I SEE it !!!
Sure, but, we both know that stuff changes at the drop of a hat when it's run as a pure marketing excercise.

Problem is, this doesn't carry the same weight as it did 50 years ago, especially with the BoP malarky. I honestly would have preferred them to bring Mustangs to IMSA and the WEC as planned and stayed in play like Corvette.
