Foxy Mustang vs. Tree: Tree 1, Mustang Nil [with Video]


What enterprising youth hasn’t hooned around an empty car park in a car? I think it’s safe to say that most motoring enthusiasts would have at one stage in their lives, before they had the bravado to exercise their “skillz” [sic] on the track (or, in some cases, a nasty accident that makes them take pause). Well, think of this video as the interim stage between, “Parking Lot Racer” and “Certified Track Demon”.

So we have this guy (it would have to be, yeah?) in a post-1987 Mustang. He’s participating in some sort of coned off track racing shenanigans. It’s all fun and games power sliding through the cones until the 1:05 minute mark. Then...BAM! On the plus side, the car hit on the passenger side, which appears from the video to be unoccupied.

One thing’s for certain; it’ll be a long time before this driver takes another Fox body Mustang around that tree-lined car park. Check out the video below and leave your piece in the comments section.

Detroit Motor Show 2011 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca Test - Modern Muscle Car







Yes, the thing with reality. At the Detroit Motor Show 2011 show the U.S. auto industry, how they imagine the future: rational small cars, like with hybrid drive, the ecologically pure purr to a better future of automobiles. Great. But also a little way off. Thankfully. Your bread to earn, the former "Big Three" that is currently still with  like the Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca - has allowed the most radical street Mustang, the Ford ever in the public local and long distance services. autobild.de editorial director Jochen servant has paid a visit to Brummer.
No power to the rise: the super-sized lip is on the front apron of the Mustang Boss 302 equipment package Laguna Seca - the top of the Boss series. One needs something only when you're on the racetrack - or a private snow plow. Under the hood power dome-mogul has made it comfortable to five liters a whole wild horse-extended family. Once roused, the pack 445 hp stomps into the ground. About. So very well know the fact no one at Ford. This also applies to the 514 Nm of torque, sending the eight-cylinder to the rear axle. Eyes and go: The retro cockpit of the Mustang Boss 302 must be found not beautiful. And certainly not high quality. Really great but the crisp, narrow car seats that have concerned the establishment of Ford Experts at Recaro. Many ordinary Americans will, however, problems have to stow the pounds with dignity. Nice touch: The bottom small patio home for three classic circular instruments, record lap times and with which data can measure additional engine. Black lumps: Who wants to move the boss has to switch from hand. There is not automatic. Back seat? Too heavy. Where else cower the passengers, solid struts for more strength in the body.via

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 1The boss is back – and it’s back with a vengeance. Meet the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 – said to be the quickest, best-handling straight-production Mustang ever offered by Ford, based on the strong foundation provided by the 2011 Mustang GT. The model has been upgraded in nearly every aspect including engine output, brakes, suspension, interior and exterior all examined to optimize weight, aerodynamics and track performance.

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 2The decision to build a modern Boss was not entered into lightly,” said Derrick Kuzak, group vice president, Global Product Development. “The entire team at Ford felt the time was right and with the right ingredients, the world-class 2011 Mustang could support a successful, race-bred, worthy successor to the original Boss 302. For us that meant a production Mustang that could top one of the world”s best ““ the 2010 BMW M3 ““ in lap times at Laguna Seca. We met our expectations.”

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 4To celebrate the victory and the racing heritage, Ford will offer a limited number of Boss 302 Laguna Seca models for those interested in more on-track driving. The 302 Laguna Seca has increased body stiffness, a firmer chassis set-up and an aerodynamics package carried over almost in its entirety from the Ford Racing Boss 302R.

2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 5So what’s under the hood? The 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 uses the same 5.0L V8 from the 2011 GT but to achieve the high-rpm horsepower to make it competitive on the track, Ford added a new intake, revised camshafts and a more aggressive control calibration. All that results in 440-hp and 380 lb-ft of torque. Power is transmitted to the wheels through a race inspired short-throw, close-ratio six-speed manual transmission handles gear change duties.
