Ford Performance equates the refinement of the car’s chassis and aerodynamics to the vigorous regimen a competitive athlete partakes in order to better their physique. The engine then is envisaged as the heart powering this sportsperson, while the brains of the operation are attributed to the people instrumental in bringing it all together, such as Global Sports Car Manager Kevin Groot, Multimatic Motorsports Director Larry Holt, and Ford Performance Motorsports Global Manager Mark Rushbrook.

“Winning important races and championships, and driving brand value back to our business are some of the reasons why we go racing,” Rushbrook declared. “With Mustang’s 60th anniversary in 2024, what better way to celebrate this global performance icon than by testing it in the most extreme conditions?”

There are a variety of settings that encompass Barcelona, portions of the UK, and Sebring to mention just a few.
