THE TRUTH! My Real Thoughts about the Mustang Dark Horse
Over 7,000 miles into my ownership of the Ford Mustang Dark Horse, let's talk about the pros and cons, while at the track for the first time! I'm at Apex Motor Club in Arizona to talk about what I like, what could be improved, and some further thoughts. All meanwhile, with the V8 roaring!
I collected the S650 7th gen Mustang back in October, and the last 4 months have flown by since leaving Pat Milliken Ford, and shipping the car off to Ceramic Pro Chicago for the PPF installation. In the time since we set off on a massive tour down to Florida, and then across the country to Las Vegas to attend SEMA. Since then, it's had some good runs around the West Coast including up to visit @TheStradman and then over to Velocity Invitational. Along the way it has had a few sets of tyres after I shredded the original Trofeo RS at @HennesseyPerformanceF5 and replaced them with some Michelin Cup 2 tyres, that I then had to change again after one had a full puncture.
For the spec of the American Shmeemobile, I went for the Dark Horse Handling Package to give it the upgraded suspension setup, wider wheels and tyres, and more aggressive aero, along with the 6 speed Tremec manual gearbox. Therefore, we've got a perfect spec machine for a track day outing, which brings us to where we are today.
Join me therefore at Apex Motor Club, a private member's facility south of Phoenix, Arizona, and a track where there are member's garages and a fully inclusive service to enhance the experience. With phase 1 in operation, the track is fully up and running, with even more to come in the future including a new clubhouse. A special thanks to my friend Kent, and the full team at Apex Motor Club for the opportunity to join and drive for the day.
There is no doubt that getting the beast out onto track makes for a seriously fun day, and something I've been looking forward to for sure. It's also been overdue to give some feedback and review thoughts on the car that I've now drive for many, many miles.
Thanks for watching, Tim
