When you think about racing, it’s easy to get swept up in the glitz of big teams and flashy sponsorships. But let’s not forget where it all started—grassroots motorsports. That’s the heart of Ford. I mean, just look at the Model A; it’s been modified more than any other car out there. From the 1930s to now, Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln have been the canvas for countless enthusiasts who love to tweak and tune their rides. Whether you’re into road racing, drag racing, or just cruising the streets, these classics have been the go-to for anyone looking to make their mark. And then there’s the Mustang. Since it rolled out in 1964, it’s been a game-changer in the scene. Fast forward to 2014, and we’re celebrating 50 years of this iconic beast that’s woven itself into the fabric of racing history. It’s no surprise that a recent study showed the Mustang as the most desirable classic car in Europe. Talk about making a statement!

What’s really exciting is how motorsports keep evolving. With tech advancing and a growing interest in smaller powertrains, formats like Rally Cross and Drifting are gaining traction. Who knows what the next 50 years will hold? But one thing’s for sure: we’ll be right there with you, celebrating the passion that drives Ford and the Mustang legacy.

Now, if you’re looking to take your Mustang to the next level, check out the M-6017-504V Ford Racing Engine Control Pack. This isn’t just any control pack; it’s designed specifically to run the 5.0L Coyote Mustang crate engines (PN M-6007-M50A/M-6007-A50NA) with a manual transmission. Just keep in mind, you’ll need a return-type fuel system to make it all work smoothly.
