Picked this game up recently and found that the game actually has a LAN mode, meaning that it can be played online forever. This is not very surprising considering Eutechnyx's other PS2 online racing titles, Street Racing Syndicate and The Fast and the Furious, also feature a LAN mode. The game currently goes for $4.99 used at GameStop if anyone would like to give it a shot.

Ford vs. Chevy is a racing video game published by 2K Games and developed by Eutechnyx. It was released on November 9, 2005 on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.

This game features 48 Chevys and Fords cars and trucks including the Ford GT and the Chevrolet Corvette. The rivalry started by Eddie Olson and Tyrone Baker by racing a Ford Model T and a Chevy 490 in the earliest days of automobile racing. Other people started to join the party when the rivalry grew.

While I am personally not all that interested in this game, cool you were able to confirm it has a LAN mode.
