I know that magnitude of ferrari brand can't be compared with anything else, but porsche maybe, but as said I think that a brand should build up his identity and prestige on his own legs rather than use this kind of cheap comparison tricks... considering also that mere horsespower is last thing that ferrari enjoyers and owners are looking at. |

It's not like taking swipes at the new Ferrari is the entire Glickenhaus marketing strategy. It's one post, having a bit of fun.

And hopefully, it will serve its purpose and sell some more cars. If not, then it's not a big loss.

We're now about sold out thru 2023. We're now expanding our productive capacity to meet demand which we see at about 300 vehicles per year. At that point our EBIDTA will be about 60mm per year. Things could be worse. Read what I wrote and Dan's review. I was comparing our old school, 6SP manual with a plug in hybrid. Ferrari is moving towards plug in hybrids. We're not. Our sister company Glickenhaus Zero is developing Hydrogen Fuel Cell pickup trucks. When ours is finished I'll compare it to BEV Pickup trucks. Ours will then try to become the first zero emission vehicle to finish The Baja 1000. Elon has called HFC's "fool cells". He also thinks his Cybertruck will be great on The Baja. We've challenged him to bring it when our HFC Pickup races there. Think he'll show up? Should any of you come to Spa or The Ring when we're racing please say hello.

In team news (but not hypercar) Jim plans to run 2 of his 004 GT3 cars in the WEC in 2024. Upgrading the cars this year for final FIA homologation.

It's in German and I don't have Chrome. Maybe you can offer a short explanation of what it says?
Glickenhaus doesn't want to race in IMSA, or something like that? |

if I remember correctly IMSA doesn't recognize glickenhaus as manufacturer because doesn't reach the min. number of road cars production.

The first of the 007's have arrived in Germany to begin their summer European tour. Joest will be out testing the car at Hockenheim this week in preparation for Spa. Dumas, Pla, and Derani will be racing at Spa, no word on who is doing the testing.
