The MKII was a refined version of the original GT. Holman and Moody entered the white, black and green #95 GT40 MkII in 1966 at the famous racetrack in Daytona, Florida. This was the first year the Daytona race would be a 24 hour event, making the challenge for the car and drivers that much harder. The #95 proved to have enough speed, endurance and durability to hold second place for much of the race. But the drivers Mark Donohue and Walt Hansgen were directed by Ford's team to fall back and finish second allowing for a 1-2-3-5 record-breaking sweep.
