StangTV and IMSA fan Mike Literas, happened to be walking the pits at the Dayton Roar Before the 24 this afternoon when he came across a camouflaged S550 bodied Mustang being moved by the Multimatic racing team from the tech area back to the hauler. Given that Multimatic typically tests the latest Ford innovations before they go to full scale production, and the slip last year that they were working on the GT350R project, we can only assume this is that car. It’s also obvious, the more you look at the car, the more standard GT350 cues you can spot.
The car, which appears to be decked out for racing with roll cage, external hood fasteners, and what we assume is a full stripping of anything not intended to make it go faster, only made a brief appearance, and idled its way through the pit area. Literas said the Mutlimatic guys were quick to get the car back out of the open.
I thought it was a GT350 with a regular coyote motor in it for a comparison.then what the heck was the other car at the nurburgring? with the smaller top grill?
Doubt it, but I wasn't expecting that anyhow.So i take it the GT350R will not be street legal? :shrug:
I believe that's right.I thought it was a GT350 with a regular coyote motor in it for a comparison.
