2024 Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5-FD: First Look Debut

The seventh-generation Ford Mustang reaches dealerships this summer, and with it comes a slate of new Mustang-based race cars. That includes a sideways-dancing pony called the Mustang RTR Spec 5-FD, where FD stands for Formula Drift.

Built by Ford and RTR Vehicles, this is the new competition Mustang that will compete in the 2023 Formula Drift season. As the photos clearly show, it's not simply a street-going Mustang with a racing livery. There's more than 1,300 horsepower under the hood, which is more than enough to generate a prolific smoke show from the rear tires. The suspension is upgraded for the rigors of drifting, and the steering is significantly modified to help drivers keep control at extreme sideways angles.
