For the past 12 years running, Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) has sponsored NASCAR's season-finale racing spectacular. That not only means that Dearborn gets to call the event the Ford Championship Weekend, but also gets to bring the pace car. This year's season closer is set to take place this weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where Ford will not only bring a new F-150 Tremor (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/ford+f-150+tremor/) to pace the Camping World truck race and a Shelby GT500 (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/shelby+gt500/) to pace the Nationwide race, but also this unique Mustang (http://autoblog.com/ford/mustang/) to set the pace at the Ford EcoBoost 400.

This pony car was built to star in the new Need for Speed movie with a widebody kit, upgraded aero, 22-inch alloys, low-profile mirrors, bigger intakes and a supercharged V8. It'll be driven at the event by Ramon Rodriguez, who also drives the car in the movie, and you'll be able to do the same in the new Need for Speed Rivals game launching later this month. Check it out in the (annoyingly soundtracked) video and the press release below (http://www.mnfords.com/2013/11/14/need-for-speed-mustang-pace-car-homestead-video/#continued).Continue reading Need for Speed Mustang to set the pace at Homestead [w/video] (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/11/14/need-for-speed-mustang-pace-car-homestead-video/)
