SEMA 2007: Ford Racing / Miller Cup Mustang Racing Series
SEMA 2007: Ford Racing / Miller Cup Mustang Racing Series Miller Motorsports Park will launch a new professional racing series next year in conjunction with Ford Racing, the Tooele track announced today at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association (SEMA) Convention in Las Vegas. The series will provide competitors an affordable way to race with a V-8-powered car, according to a MMP news release. The Ford Racing Mustang Challenge for the Miller Cup presented by BFGoodrich Tires will be a one-make "spec" series utilizing the new Ford Mustang FR500S fitted with BFGoodrich g-Force R1 tires. The Ford Mustang FR500S is a limited-production, race-prepared version of the Ford Mustang GT that was co-developed by Miller Motorsports Park and Ford Racing Technology over a year of competition in the Miller Park Racing Association. The FR500S starts as a production-line Ford Mustang, and is built on a special assembly line without the seats, carpet, noise insulation and other interior fitments that are normally included in a street car. The car is fitted with a full rollcage and shipped to Miller Motorsports Park, where final assembly -- including safety equipment and competition power and suspension upgrades -- is completed. A total of 77 cars have been built to date, and more will be built as demand dictates. Source: [url=http://www.themustangnews.com/eventcov_07/st-1007sema13.htm]TheMustangNews.com[/url] |
