As part of the build-up to the Proud to Honor Veterans Day Classic, Ford unveiled the new Ford Racing Mustang, which will compete in the NASCAR Cup Series from 2027.
Ford’s latest NASCAR racing car is based on a vehicle that customers can actually buy: the 795PS Mustang Dark Horse SC.
“When we unveiled the Mustang Dark Horse SC in January and announced that it would compete in the NASCAR Cup Series from 2027, we had no time to lose,” said Mark Rushbrook, Global Director at Ford Racing.
“Racing makes our production cars better, and our production cars make our racing cars better. We’ve put this philosophy into practice here by incorporating key elements of the Dark Horse SC into the new Mustang racing car to make it even more competitive week in, week out.”

Foremost among these is an aggressive-looking front end, designed to optimise aerodynamics. On the road car, it provides improved cooling, whilst on the race car it generates more downforce.
The Ford Mustang will make its racing debut during Daytona Speedweeks, which culminates in the 69th edition of the Daytona 500 on 21 February.
