2027 RACE BUILD
$15,000 Build Goal
$7,000
raised of $15,000
47% funded
We already own the Mustang, so the money we raise now goes directly toward turning it into a safe, reliable endurance race car: the cage and safety equipment, engine reliability work, cooling, brakes, tires, testing, and race expenses.
Funding total last updated 7/27/26.
THE PROJECT IS UNDERWAY
There is a real car behind the project now.
We purchased a 2005 Ford Mustang GT with a 4.6L V8 and a 5-speed manual transmission, and the build has officially started.
Right now we are tracking down an unusual engine noise that we believe is coming from the timing system, stripping the interior, and going through the car piece by piece before we start installing the race equipment.
That means sponsor support is no longer going toward a future idea. It helps pay for parts and work that are happening on the Mustang right now.

WHERE YOUR SUPPORT GOES
Building a car that can make it through 25 hours.
We are putting reliability and safety ahead of horsepower. These are the areas where sponsorship makes the biggest difference.
Safety
Roll cage, containment seat, harnesses, fire system, window net, and the equipment required to protect our drivers.
Reliability
Timing-system work, oiling and cooling upgrades, worn components, seals, hoses, belts, and preventative repairs.
Brakes & Tires
Endurance brake pads, rotors, brake cooling, wheels, tires, suspension work, and other track-focused components.
Race Weekend
Entry fees, fuel, testing, replacement parts, consumables, transportation, and everything needed to actually make the start.
