That machine looks amazing!
Not sure what this is supposed to be. Without numbers on the side and with that giant wing, it doesn’t scream NASCAR to me.

It just looks like another Mach E 1400 iteration.

If they do race the thing it would probably set a NASCAR record: Longest pit stop to refuel. ?

I think it looks way better than the 1400. From a quick read it has 1,000hp and a tri-motor setup. Definitely just a prototype but there are a few articles out there about it now.

I'm not an expert, but would a heavy car with a very low center of gravity even need a giant wing on the back?

Not to mention the 5 second limit on acceleration. Probably wouldn't make it out of the pits.

Peter Schultz is posting that this will be used to go up Pikes Peak this year and the big wing makes more sense for that race.

Will it be the same one, though? Looks like he said it was a separate announcement that another Mach-E would be doing Pikes Peak. The teaser image from Ford Performance looks pretty different too:

Because the more wings, the better. Just like my dad always claimed that “paint stripes add at least 10 MPH to the top speed.” (Before everyone jumps on me, he was JOKING! He hated paint stripes!)

But it has a magic heat pump, so the battery will always be at the perfect temperature in all conditions and operating extremes! No 5 second rule! ???

Somehow I think NASCAR folks are not into EVs. But I could be wrong.

I'm more interested to see Ford's EV roadmap or at least new EV models (preferably SDV) than yet another "xyz version".

Inside, my pony thinks that it looks just like this one. And it wants to run with that herd. Love that 2-door low slung look.
