mac and M-Sport At this year’s Le Mans Ford unveiled a new Mustang GT3 car that’ll take place in the 2024 race.
Aimed at conquering the popular GT3 class, the new race-ready Mustang is a joint-collaboration between the Blue Oval and long-time partners Multimac and M-Sport. Most importantly for Ford, it’s one of the ways the Blue Oval will redefine the Mustang as thoroughbred racer rather than ‘just’ a muscle car., the most extreme road-going version of Ford’s pony car. Like the Dark Horse, the Mustang GT3 car gets its power from the 5.4-litre Coyote V8, albeit specially assembled by M-Sport of rally fame.
Take a look at the pictures above, and you’ll see a diffuser, front splitter and side exist exhausts; this may have started out as a Dark Horse, but it’s a very different beast now. ‘[It’ll be] a customer race car based on the production car with a roll cage, fuel cell – everything you need to go racing,’ says Rushbrook. ‘There will also be a Dark Horse S – similar but less geared to racing, more for customers who want to focus on trackdays.’Far from a dinosaur, the Mustang is now at the forefront of Ford’s strategy.
