Muscle Cars and Road Courses Make Unlikely Partners - TUNED


I wanted to share a video that was shot this weekend at Willow Springs International Raceway. The video features my 2011 Mustang RTR and the Hotchkis 1970 Challenger. The reviews were done on track with a full grid so Matt was not driving as fast as he could because he wanted to be carefull with our vehicles. This is a great video that shows how well you can make a muscle car handle on a road course.

Matt is a friend of mine. He used to live right around the corner from me.

That's awesome, he makes some of the best video reviews IMO. He should do one of the 13 GT500 and ZL1 when they come out, strip and autoX like on this one.
