Official Release

In this special edition of AmericanMuscle’s (AM) Mustang News, Justin Dugan eagerly reports on the highly-anticipated release of critical specifications for the Ford’s new Shelby 2020 GT500. In this Mustang News, Justin dives deep into FOMOCO’s eSourceBook to expound upon this supercharged Mustang, with specifications such as oil capacity and spring rates.

“We just got back from Bristol, and unfortunately, we had a really fast car but blew our motor running in 3rd. There was nothing we could do, but we brought a really fast Kaulig Racing Chevrolet to the track, which is our goal this weekend at Road America – our third road course race of the season."

The No. 34 Front Row Motorsports (FRM) Ford Mustang will run a special paint scheme for the "Bojangles' Southern 500" NASCAR Throwback weekend at Darlington Raceway, honoring Jimmy Means' No. 52 Alka-Seltzer Pontiac. Means drove the iconic powder blue car in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

The DAYTONA 500 and the Daytona International Speedway logos will be featured on the front of their respective limited edition 4 oz bottles of Real Time Pain Relief’s MAXX Pain Relief Cream.

The infield party at the 2020 Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 weekend is going to be bigger and better than ever.

When Brian Pembelton retired from racing a few years back, his wife April probably sighed a sigh of relief with visions of Saturday nights away from the racetrack.

Although he dominated the second half of the ARCA Menards Series Allen Crowe 100 presented by Lucas Oil, Michael Self (No. 25 Sinclair Lubricants Toyota) held off his Venturini Motorsports teammate Christian Eckes (No. 15 JBL Audio/Illinois Truck & Equipment Toyota) on a two-lap dash to the checkered to earn his fourth series victory of the season.

Denny Hamlin passed Toyota teammate Matt DiBenedetto for the lead with 11 laps to go in Saturday night’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway, going on to cross the finish line in first for a fourth time this season.

MICHAEL MCDOWELL, No. 34 Love’s Travel Stops Ford Mustang – “There’s always a lot going on at Bristol and a lot happening at one time. The top was pretty much the dominant line. It’s hard to pass, so guys were aggressive in making moves. There at the end it looked like maybe the 12 blew a right-front tire. Somebody blew a tire and they all slid up, and it’s Bristol you check up and you kind of all wash up into the same spot. I saw my teammate try to dive low to miss it and just caught it and when he caught it, I just ran right in the back of him. It’s unfortunate for everybody at Front Row Motorsports – lost two cars in that accident and not really anything of our own doing, just wrong place wrong time. It’s unfortunate for the Love’s Travel Stops Ford Mustang and for David – not his last Bristol race, but this was an important race for him and I hate it for him.”

CHASE ELLIOTT, NO.9 HOOTERS SPIRITS CAMARO ZL1 – Finished 5th EARLIER IN THE RACE, YOUR CAR SEEMED A LOT STRONGER. WHERE DID IT GO? "I don't know. I thought we were just off a little bit off all night. All weekend we just needed a little bit. I felt like we were really close. We just never got over the hill. But our Hooters Spirits team did a good job. Heck, they executed a great race. I think we gained spots on pit road every time we came; like more than one spot, too. So, they did a great job. Alan (Gustafson) called a great race. I lined-up in the top multiple times. You can't really ask for anything else. From a driver's standpoint, I just didn't do a very good job with it. I seemed to be a little bit better than these guys. I felt like the past Spring race and this race, we've been off just a touch. We've got to go to work."
