Long live SRT! With the merger between FCA and PSA completed, the new Stellantis group is official . While initial reports almost pushed the Chrysler brand off the edge, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares confirmed in a recent interview that it will be otherwise. Instead, Stellantis will prioritize reinvigorating the Chrysler marque in the US over bringing Peugeot across the Atlantic. As it stands, Chrysler is safe, but it seems like we weren't looking at the right place during the merger. Apparently, the one that will hit the ax under the Stellantis group is the Street and Racing Technology (SRT) Team. This is according to a Stellantis spokesperson who spoke to Mopar Insiders amid the looming rumors.

The 1963 Indy 500 winner, who several experts regard as one of the greatest and most versatile racers of all time and who should have scored at least four Indy victories in the 1960s, will be in attendance for a sitdown interview for the VIP Exhibition on Nov. 8 th . The Legends of Los Angeles exhibition will pay tribute to Southern California racecar builders, with a display of 11 cars constructed around the LA area.

Weird brakes at the back, ornery person behind the wheel. This particular Ford Mustang leaves us with some interesting questions. For starters, it looks like a typical S550, albeit with an intriguing array of exterior bits. The chin, rocker panels, and wheels appear to be from the Mach 1. The front fascia isn't Mach 1, however, and there's no wing at the back. The reason for camo wrap on the front clip is also a mystery, and then we have the words "no brakes" written on the driver side window. Weird. Are you ready for things to get weirder?

There is some evidence to back the claim up – a close look at the rear wheel reveals a dual-caliper setup that you don't find on normal Mustangs. However, you will find a similar arrangement on other all-wheel-drive models like the Dodge Charger . The janky wiring loom running into the rear wheel arch is easy to see, but … [Read more...] about Ford Driver Flips Finger To Camera Catching Possible AWD Mustang Mule
