The Vicious Mustang is a beast of a car with 1000 horsepower. This car was unveiled at SEMA 2016, and it took ten thousand man-hours over nine months to prepare for the show. The car’s builder, Jason from Timeless Customs, said that form follows function, and this car was built to be nine tenths racecar and one tenth street car. In this article, we will take a detailed look at the Vicious Mustang, its features, and what makes it so special.
The Conversion
The Vicious Mustang started its life as a 1965 fastback Mustang. The only thing left from the original car is the A-pillars. The rest of the car is made of Dynacorn, which has been heavily modified. The car has aggressive flares on the fenders and quarters, and a crazy rocker that comes in but matches back out to the flares. The wheels are made by Forgeline, and they are designed for performance.
The Chassis
The Vicious Mustang is built on an Art Morrison chassis, which has an independent rear and a C7 front clip. The car also has Ride Tech triple adjustable coilovers, which are fully race purpose-built. The brakes on the car are 15.5 inches and made of carbon ceramic. They are from Brembo, and they have six pistons in the front and four pistons in the rear.
The Tires
The Vicious Mustang has a set of Kumho 355 tires on the rear, which were specifically made for the ACR Viper. The front tires are 305s, which are also made by Kumho. The car has a lot of horsepower, and it needs these tires to handle it.
The Powerplant
The Vicious Mustang has a 5.1 liter Voodoo motor, which is found in the GT350. However, the internals of the engine were rebuilt to make it stronger. The engine is supercharged with a Magnuson supercharger, which gives the car a lot of low-end power.
The Vicious Mustang is not a car for the faint of heart. It has 1000 horsepower, and it can go from zero to sixty in under three seconds. The car is built for racing, and it has been taken to autocross events. The car is not set up for autocross, but it can still perform well. The Vicious Mustang is a street-legal car, but it is a race car at its core.
Conclusion
The Vicious Mustang is a masterpiece of automotive engineering. The car has been built to be a race car, but it is still street legal. The car has 1000 horsepower and can go from zero to sixty in under three seconds. The car has an Art Morrison chassis, Ride Tech triple adjustable coilovers, and Brembo carbon ceramic brakes.
