RTR Mustang

A Drive That Speaks to the Soul

Picture this: the Ford RTR Spec 2 Mustang, low and assertive, charging through a mountain pass in the Catskills. The trees blur, the road rises and falls, and that unmistakable V8 torque pins you to your seat. It’s not just a drive — it’s an experience.

Out past Route 28 toward Phoenicia or up Route 214 near Slide Mountain, this Mustang feels perfectly at home. You crest a ridge, ease off the throttle, and feel the suspension settle. Then you unwind the wheel, roll into the gas, and the car responds instantly — sharp, confident, alive.

Each corner tightens your connection with the road. The RTR-tuned suspension soaks up imperfections, the steering communicates every nuance, and the exhaust note grows deeper with every downshift. In moments like these, surrounded by the mountain air and sunlight flickering through the trees, the Mustang becomes more than a car — it’s an extension of you.


Under the Hood: The RTR Spec 2 Formula

The RTR Spec 2 Mustang begins with the proven 5.0L Ti-VCT Coyote V8, delivering around 460 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque in its GT base form. But RTR’s genius isn’t about overwhelming power — it’s about precision, balance, and connection.

RTR’s upgrades refine what makes the Mustang great — sharper handling, increased grip, and a lower center of gravity — transforming it into a machine built for drivers who crave the perfect mix of style and substance.


Why the Catskills Are Made for the RTR

The Catskill Mountains aren’t just scenic — they’re a driver’s paradise. The mix of sweeping corners, elevation changes, and open straights create the perfect playground for a car like the RTR Spec 2.
