Following close behind their 20th Anniversary of operations, the team at Steeda Autosports is excited to officially announce the groundbreaking of their new base of operations in Georgia at the new Valdosta facility.  With over 100,000 square feet to tweak, toy, and tinker within, the Steeda crew can continue their fine arts on a campus of 35 acres loaded with testing grounds such as a road course, skid pad, brake testing area, and slalom course in order to refine the optimal performance parts for the Ford Mustang.  The South Georgia Motorsports Park, a full-fledged drag strip, is close by and will also be utilized to put additional testing on the Steeda-equipped Mustangs in order to provide the utmost levels of quality and durability.  Keep reading to get the full detail in the Press Release from Steeda.

We've all been there.  You know, that special place where nothing else matters except for excitement, speed, and good clean fun.  Being behind the wheel of a Ford Mustang of any age is one of the most exciting things an enthusiast can do in his life, and piloting this special Classic Mustang build-up road racer special by Jason Swenk is no exception.  From the sparks of a new love to a lifetime of passion; this car was inspired by a blue-blooded fan and StangNet is proud to present his story to you.  Keep reading to see all the details behind Swenk's Classic, in a direct personal account from him.

Continuing the coverage of the ROUSH Racing Team on the road course, we decided to share another video after exhibiting the clip from the race at Watkins Glen earlier this season. The tag-team effort in the ROUSH #59 Ford Mustang in this KONI Challenge race gave the spread something to fear at Barber Motorsports Park.  Starting in the 11th slot, the #59 Mustang had a lot of ground to make up in order to provide a substantial showing...and that she did.  Take a good look and enjoy some more excellent firsthand driving footage straight from the source: Roush & StangNet!

This slick little video featurette released by Ford shows us some firsthand spirited driving in the 2010 Ford Mustang. All of the visual cues on the car are exhibited, not to mention the all-to-familiar sound of the Mustang's exhaust note. The effects and cinematics captured in the clip are quite vivid and really get the gears going. We hope you enjoy the clip and also hope Ford releases more as the 2010 Mustang comes to market.

The very first FR500CJ Cobra Jet Mustang from Ford completed assembly and quality control, then rolled through the concourse to meet its new owner, Brent Hajek.  This 500 horsepower beast of a Mustang is set to take on the competition at the 2009 Winternationals in Pomona, CA in just a few months, so the beefy, blown 5.4 liter powerplant has its work cut out for it.  Interested in acquiring your own FR500CJ Mustang?  See your local participating Ford dealer and help keep this monster of a legend alive!

Just weeks ago, the 2010 Ford Mustang made its debut and now, in mid-December following the launch, the aftermarket tweakers and tuners are already at the board drafting up concepts and ideas for improvement upon Ford's famous pony car. Steve Saleen, founder of SMS Supercars, has taken the aftermarket by the reins and has released some preliminary details surrounding the "Signature Series 460 Mustang". Each of the SMS Mustangs will be based upon the refreshed 2010 Mustang platform and will be equipped with superchargers that boost the horsepower output to anywhere from 475 all the way to 650! In addition to the go, SMS will most assuredly apply some components for show as well. Check out all the official details in the Press Release from SMS.

If you haven't seen it by now, well, you're in for a real treat.  This awesome burnout video in the 315 horsepower 2010 Ford Mustang is likely one of the first on the Internet and it's sure to please.  Bill Deister shows us how well the new Mustang receives a little heel-toe treatment and lights up some serious rubber.  We hope you enjoy this quick little tidbit of red sweetness providing a vivid race-inspiring smokescreen.

Following all the images and videos of the 2010 Mustang StangNet has brought to the table, we thought it might be a good change of pace to remind Mustang fans there are lots of great literary works out there surrounding the legend and its tale of followers & founders. Carroll Shelby is just one of the many in history that helped shape the Ford Mustang in its earlier stages and has a strong impact on the car even today, on the eve of the 2010 Mustang. We are happy to share with you a book review on Carroll Shelby, the Race Driver by Art Evans. It might just encourage you to pick this one up for that special Mustang fan you know this Christmas season.

Reflecting back on a trying and rewarding 2008 NMRA season, the ROUSH Drag Racing Team saw just how well they rolled through adversity and finished up a very successful season. Beech Bend Raceway hosted the final event for the NMRA racers and as soon as the smell of high-octane fuel graced the air, the ROUSH team geared for action--and action they received. With almost everyone on the team trying to conquer challenges with parts breakages and other technical issues, they kept their heads up and pushed forward into the competition after wrenching through the first few days of drag racing.  Susan Roush-McClenaghan took the wheel and entered the battle for the title in the Performance Modular Muscle class. We've talked about the ROUSH racing teams (both drag and road) all year and are happy to let you in on the details from the season finale. Keep reading to see how Susan fared in the season-closing event!

Oh, to be so lucky for us to see the 2010 Mustang prices equal to some of the recent 2008 and 2009 Ford Mustang amounts! Some dealerships have been cutting the pony car stickers down underneath the $19,000 mark for the remaining Mustangs on the eve of the 2010 coming next Spring. Some of the craftier crew over at Motor Trend were able to get their hands on the official price list for each model & trim of the 2010 Mustang, including the respective options. It looks like the vanilla V6 coupe starts just under $21K + $850 destination & delivery. Jumping up to the top of the rung, we see that the GT Convertible, trimmed in the Premium decor, starts at $35,995 plus D&D. Keep reading to see each trim's price point and the official price sheets themselves.
