Rally Mustang

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again – the Ford Mustang is one of the most varied and versatile sports cars on the planet. Find me another car that’s just as sharp on a road course as it is sitting in your sister’s parking space in high school. Or tearing up a handful of stages at the Ujibwe Forest Rally. The ’10 Unleashed campaign continues to make die-hard Mustang fans’ dreams a reality, and the latest stunt pits two long-time rivals, friends and pony fans against each other and the clock. Hop the jump for a look. [Source: Ford]

    How about the Mitsubishi Evo IX or the Subaru WRX STI? I get that this is a marketing campaign to sell Mustangs, but I’d like to see them go up against some proven rally cars, not other Mustangs.

    Mark was racing that weekend against STI’s, Evo’s etc, and he did fairly well in his mostly-stock mustang against fully-prepared awd rally cars. You are correct that this was a Ford campaign. The winner of this short battle had a chance at a sponsorship for 2010.
