Say hello to the Ford Mustang GT3. The car will race in both the WEC and the IMSA next year, including Le Mans and Daytona classics. Full story and pictures:
Based on the seventh-generation, road-going muscle car, the Ford Mustang GT3 was finally revealed to the world on Friday ahead of the centenary edition of the French endurance classic.
Multimatic has been involved with Ford in development of the Mustang, while M-Sport helped assemble the 5.4 litre Coyote V8 engine that will sit at the heart of the car. A manufacturer is limited to two cars in the new LMGT3 class for 2024 as per rules laid down by the ACO and the FIA. While no information about other championships where the Mustang GT3 could race was provided, Ford said the car would compete in a variety of GT3 categories before its Le Mans debut in June, 2024.“For a project like the Mustang GT3, we turned to two of our most trusted partners in the motorsports world to help bring this vehicle and program together,” said Mark Rushbrook, Global Director, Ford Performance Motorsports.
