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.

Great vid and congrats on your car being featured!
My brother was there that day and sent me pics of your car and the yellow Challenger as well as others. There were some wicked cars in the groups he was driving in. I guess there were a bunch of "Octane Academy" 2013 Mustangs there filming for some show as well. Thought he said they were on the Streets track.

He stopped by on his way home from work so he wasn't on track. The bastard lives in Rosamond and can hear cars/bikes on track from his house lol. Nice car GrabberBlue310, and seemed like Matt was pretty impressed!
