How much to run a Xfinity/O Reilly's team for a year? A lot. It reminds me of an old business joke. I'll customize it for this discussion. How do you make $1 million dollars racing? Start with $5 million.

This is a chance to gain more Ford support and run for a title.
Yeah he has the technology in house for a good shot at IMSA.
