I like the GTD, a lot!

But I was disappointed when I watched one of the first videos of it on track and learned that track mode cancels the AC and then to get the best aero and performance, expectedly, it’s recommended to keep windows closed.

Come on. Give owners the AC and let them decide if they want it on or off.
The pros looking to set a record at the “Ring” will turn it off anyway. They know the game.

Neither do I, and all track guys for the better part, but many have the option.

Most track with windows down.
Some tracks or events, it’s a safety rule, so safety crews can have easy access to occupants in the car if anything happens.

My point is that the GTD does not give the option.
Even if you only put it in track mode for the suspension benefits and just want to partial throttle around a track, or twisty and engaging mountain highway or side road. If it’s in track mode, no AC available.

And the Ford aero package recommends windows up for best results.
Again, I know this applies to most or all cars, but other cars in that price range allow the driver the choice.

You know, BM’s, Porsches, Corvette, Audi, Benz, Etc.

I watched a video of two guys take a sauna in the car at the”Ring” in the name of journalism and setting fast times.
Beads of sweat pouring down their faces as the interior temps went up from the hot exhaust with the windows rolled up.
It’s one of the points they made.
Had they been in one of the other cars, they would have had the option to use the AC.

They may have chosen not to use it but the option would have been there.

Just to this reply we were bunch of guys that went to the 1/4 mile track in Québec a few years back and were not alowed to use the ac and had to have Windows closed and the température was like 32 was Realy hot so was ending the 1/4 mile then i see was a big Line up on the way back to the starting Line everyone was in there car so i decided to get out of the car and walk toward the car to see what was going on .so the 3rd car see me waliking toward them so decided to go Check the first car and the driver had fallen on the seat because the temperature i guess.at the Time but we had to call the ambulance the Guy in the car had heart attack guess the temperature was to bad for him so was not a good feeling when you see someone in this situation we Even scream if anybody had any aspirine to try to help him
So all the people in the car got out tried to help so we waited till ambulance came was sad to see .

Not a fun situation few days after we got news the Guy was doing better was glad for him.
