ADVANCE NOTES
Cindric on Darlington
“I’m excited about Darlington. It’s probably one of the most unknown tracks that I’ve gone to this year since I’ve never been there. From everything I have seen, I think it is a track that I’m really going to like. It’s obviously a very tricky race track and demands a lot of respect. I’m excited for the challenge and hopefully I can have a strong run in my final race of the season in the No. 60 Ford.”
Cindric at Darlington
Cindric will make his first career start at Darlington Raceway in this No. 60 throwback featuring the Ford Hall of Fans logo on the hood.
Darlington Throwback
The No. 60 will honor Ford’s racing heritage by running a scheme matching the first front-engine Mustang GTP. Ford’s front-engine Mustang GTP made its debut in 1983 in an IMSA series event at Road America.
The car was designed to showcase the best of Ford Motor Company and to make a statement in the competitive road racing scene of the 80’s, which at the time was dominated by imports. The original car was designed by Bob Riley, using a 1.7-liter 4cyl turbo and two cars were entered at Road America. The race was shortened by rain, but both teams made the podium. The Mustang GTP took home the win and cemented its place in Ford Racing history
