The FR500 Program was replaced by the Boss 302 Program in early 2011. Mustang needed a full tube frame chassis to compete in GT4 and it has been waivered ever since. Same as the Camaro...Well I'm not to familiar with the GT4 racing but wasn't the last great mustang in that class called the FR500C ?
Perhaps they could call it the FR350C ? I'm not sure. The FR500C wasn't a street vehicle. But I know what you mean. I do know the GT350S is in the works but that's a different class.
The GT350 is a Motorsport effort to completely replace the Boss 302 and FR500, unifying the efforts under one banner. Both the Boss 302 and FR500 are obsolete and cost far more at that level to develop. The GT350 is out of the box, ready to go, just add roll cage. The Mustang's in GT4 were largely 3rd Party efforts. Ford is in charge now and the GT350 sales Mustang's.
