That was a great show. I didn't get to see the whole show but it appeared that they took a stang from the prototype assembly line and made a La Mans racer out of it.

The company that did the buildup are the same people that designed the suspension for the '05 Mustang and did the shocks for the Ford GT. It's got the 5.0 Cammer engine in it and was built as a Grand Am Cup racer. They report that FRPP will be selling the parts to build the car, how long it takes for them to become available is another question.

BTW, that car looks bad to the freakin' bone!

Actually, FRPP will be selling the car out of the catalog.

Oh, yeah. I forgot what "turn-key" meant. :confused:

Those wheels make the car look unbelievably mean. Combine that with the 4V engine running open exhaust. I'd pay 50k for it if I had the money.

that nice. If you look at the front tire you can see it pulling away from the lip of the rim :burnout:

heres a smaller pic for those dial up users like me

Looks like a half breed Mustang/BMW
