Ok, we need Randy Pobst in this mustang on Laguna Seca so we can see how it stacks up to the list. I'd love that!

Fuuuuck!!! that mustang just has a presence to it. It doesn't look too aggressive either. The way it just sits so flat through the corners while it accelerates looks great. Definitely a great car.

Doesn't look to aggressive? Massive rear wing, custom front end w/ splitter, slammed, slicks, triangulated cage, huge fender flares, half the hood is venting etc. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Compare the stock (in the film) to the end product. Biggest difference between this and the hoonicorn is shit sticking out of the hood and a gaylord wrap job. You must be a child with that pic and this disability to discern anything.

This guy is the type of engineer I always wanted to be. Good job my brother.

Very cool episode. You’ve got the best job ever. And that young man created an incredible vehicle. He’s got a lot of passion!

Awesome build! Superior engineering, great overall style, gorgeous paint job and crazy performance. Nice work man. Can't wait to see what the 5.2 ends up being like in it you have to show us more when that's done !

I love nicasio! That's my everyday commute! Another great car and video, thanks Mike and crew!

Oh man your cars so good, let me just hug you lol

I had a 2013 GT500, which i decided to use for track duty here in NY (WGI/LRP/NJMP/Pocono, etc). Out of the box, the GT500 was not a track car. 4100lbs (if i remember correctly), 667hp631tq on 285 rears. I started with RBF660/Porterfield pads. The Shelby was very hard to maintain in the curves, brake diving like crazy and obviously throttle maintenance was key. I ended up talking to Filip for quite a while and ended up putting in his Watts Link/Toe Arm and a few other little things (brake ducts, etc). Cortex completely changed the driving characteristics of the Shelby, making it much more manageable through the curves, didn't lose as much grip in the rear when braking hard and overall just a major improvement. In the end, that car isn't fully made for heavy track days without some serious modifications, which I wasn't willing to do but Cortex sure made it fun

By 1:01, great story, like button pushed.

Amazaing car indeed, but the least surprising outcome possible. Of course a track purpose built car would far out perform a general public muscle car. The 350R still has all its sound deadening, all its carpet, all its creature comforts etc etc. So much added weight, a daily driveable suspension thats comfortable enough that the 350R could be a rental car. Why anyone would be surprised at the 10 sec slower difference is what really surprises me. You need a better HoM host who understands the common sense of car performance. He's too easily impressed by something thats obvious to anyone else. Still, that Cortex Mustang is a great build.

Does the R variant of this car really have all that though (creature comforts, sound deadening, etc)? I know for a fact that an a/c delete is a factory option, as is NOT going with a nice stereo, etc. The regular GT 350 is less track focused than the R, maybe you were thinking of that version? Still, hardly surprising that a factory car, no matter how good, can't stack up to this highly customized build with a modded LS7 motor in it.

I'd love to build something like that one day. I'm even cool with the ls7 haha

Glad to learn she’s going back to a Ford mill. Should also be factory blue paint as well! Good luck to this pony!

Insane! Hopefully you guys go back when the Voodoo engine goes in

As an owner of a 66 i almost threw up when i saw an LS in there. Shame. Glad to hear he got smart and is building a Ford motor for it.

God damn, watching that thing stick through corners is impressive as hell.

this dude is like my hero

I was having a hard time with the import tuner looking wing but when he popped the hood to reveal the LS I realized I had just wasted 6 minutes.

I love Cortex. The added bonus is that they are at my home track, Sonoma Raceway!

what a beautiful story

Damn it's like it's on train tracks the way it handles that is a very well engineered car

my home town!! saw the lakes

That wing dude, BARF

What a sweet ride. Classic looks and devastating power and handling. I'm wondering how much of a performance difference there will be when the LS engine is swapped for a Coyote engine.

Holy shit that is awesome and the coolest Mustang I’ve ever seen

that red mustang is a work of art!!! barred none.

awesome :)

love it

that mustang is just godly beautiful and i cant quite put my finger on why..

seeing the panoz's randomly in the background made this video salvageable

If he let me drive that car I would hug him too.

my ideal track car

i got a 66 pretty slick mostly og ..but i want to do this to it lol

Awesome

I hope this car is revisited after the modular is dropped in. It would be neat if they documented the change with an instrumented performance comparison.

People complain about the wing because it so detracts from the aesthetic. But yes, it's functional and necessary at higher speeds.

Wow made it 5min and 28seconds in. It a new record

What a great owner. I envy him.

That’s really nice. The kind of car I build in forza and only dream to build in real life lol

It's always power to weight ratio. Add in slicks with downforce aero and it will ran low lap times for sure 👍

That cars a monster

In Ca its 66 and older that are exempt from emissions law. 75-67 is still subject to the law. They just don't require a smog check for registrations. You can still get pulled over and receive a citation for emission violation and a referee visit.

As someone who owns a 1966 mustang; nothing about this mustang will feel like a 1966 mustang, aside from the operation of the original glove box. They are really trying to downplay how this is a custom one off track car; "I don't like the feel of a tub frame car" by looking at that cage and underbody, this is 9/10th's a tube frame car. I like it, I bet it's a hoot to drive, I want it, but it's a one off track car. Related; the coyote is roughly the same weight as the LS7 (20-30lbs heavier) so it's really only a packaging concern, but I don't think that will be an issue. I'm fine with LS swapping all the things - cheap, reliable power, readily available parts.

10 seconds a lap faster than the GT350R? Daaaaaaaaaamn!!!!!!

This video is a year old!...Has he made the Coyote based 5.2L engine swap yet? Thanks and God Bless!

I don't like the wing but I love the splitter, hood, and flares

I'll be honest with you bud I love roadkill and I love the grand tour but your growing on me I don't really laugh in your shows but I learn and that's alright

Love the look of the classic Mustang in this race trim. Wing is a bit much, but imagine there is function there. That said....smh at what is under the hood...

Dude...your an engineer! All that time and money and you couldn't put a Ford engine back into it!?! Wow

5:55 ... is he putting the GT350's Voodoo motor in this dang thing?!?!?!?!?!?!

Holy shit!! it's Mike Musto. Dude what happened to big muscle?

How did Phillips car stack up against mike maers really like to see some one to one with numbers on that comparison

Anybody else spot that 2008 Bullitt in the background at 2:19? I'm thinking that might be the same one that I saw on Facebook that's having an S550 IRS (independent rear suspension) swapped into it

I threw a fit at 5:17. I knew it was coming. FML

Which RCR video was his comments about the damn LS in... watched it but don't honest to god remember

Would it be possible to purchase the bodykit that is on the cortex Mustang if so how much would it be .

Yep. This. Every day this.

What's with the amber reversing lights? That's like what Australians would do back in the day to comply with the amber-only rear turn signal law.

Hopefully that 5.2 he's talking about is an alluminator..

Mike Musto rules!

I hope it was 10 seconds faster. Race slicks kind of give it a advantage. I believe equal Tire it would of been a great head to head.

Lol the hug

If you like this kind of " How it's done " programme, you'll love Cold War Motors and Bad Obsession Motorsport. Give them a go, you won't regret it.

2:10 A BULLITT!!!!!!!!! Dammit, I wanted to be the first Bullitt dropped off at Cortex....

That wing and motor have o go!

i wish they would put randy probst in cars like this to really compare them to modern muscle

He said the car could hangout with mid engine super cars, I guess he might be a kickass driver

That LS would probably make it able to pass smog with a quick re-flash, lmao....

I'm thinking this Mustang might end up with a Voodoo. By the way, Nicasio Reservoir looks pretty full. So much for the California drought.

10 seconds faster? Do it again on the same tire.

That looks like the Hoonicorn from FH3.

What are those hood latches called ?

cool
