FINANCE/ DELIVER AND SHIP WORLD WIDEPress ReleaseFor the first time
in 40 years, a Ford Motor Company car will be pacing the field for
the Nascar season-opening Daytona 500 when the 2011 Mustang GT,
powered by the all-new 5 liter V8 engine, officially starts the
race on Feb. 14 at Daytona International Speedway.Having the
opportunity to pace Americas biggest auto race with a Ford icon
like the 2011 Mustang GT is truly an honor, said Jamie Allison,
director, Ford North America Motorsports. And to have the new 5.0L
engine powering the car will be a great way to demonstrate its
power and class-leading fuel economy.This latest version of Fords
legendary muscle car will be a Race Red glass roof coupe with an
all-new 5.0 liter V8 engine capable of producing 412 horsepower,
while delivering a class leading 25 mpg on the highway. The
one-of-a-kind model will feature a special Daytona 500 paint
scheme, Ford Racing suspension, strut tower brace and mufflers,
unique painted wheels, and special interior treatment, including
specially branded lit sill plates.The 2011 Mustang GT Daytona 500
Pace Car model is one of only 50 special editions that will be
built and sold to the public. Everybody loves Mustang, Allison
continued. That was evident last year from the fan reaction when we
announced it was going to be our new model in the NASCAR Nationwide
Series starting later this year. This is just another way to
showcase a true American icon in its most natural environment.The
last time a Ford served as pace car for the Daytona 500 was 1970
when a Ford Torino GT convertible led the field to the green
flag.And while Mustang may be a rookie when it comes to pacing the
Daytona 500, its 45-year history is firmly entrenched in racing and
winning championships. Mustang captured championships last year in
the Grand-Am KONI and SCCA SPEED World Challenge, in addition to
leading Robert Hight to his first NHRA Funny Car
championship.Another element that makes this years pace car even
more unique is that it will be auctioned off for charity before the
actual race. Later this week (Jan. 23), the Mustang GT Daytona 500
Pace Car will be offered at the annual Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale
Collector Car Auction, which is taking place in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Seven-time Daytona 500 champion Richard Petty, the newest member of
the Ford Racing family, will be on site to help hand over the car
to the winning bidder.All proceeds over the manufacturers suggested
retail price from the pace car auction will go to help cure
childhood diabetes through a donation to the Juvenile Diabetes
Research Foundation.
