Ford Mustang Racer Revealed Ahead of the 2019 Australia Supercars Championship

Ford Performance worked extensively with the teams to develop this machine which added one more racing series to the muscle car’s growing collection which already includes GT4, NASCAR, and NHRA. But it isn’t a Mustang as such. It’s more of a Supercars’ Gen 2 control chassis with a body that mimics the design of the Stang.
