2009 Ford Mustang Pikes Peak Hillclimb Race Car for sale

I have raced this Mustang up Pikes Peak Mountain 3 times. 2015, 2016, and 2018. In 2015, I was rained out, so only got to go 1/3 of the way up the mountain in the wet, so just cruised up since it wasn’t worth the risk. 2016 looked great as I qualified 5th out of 25 cars in Time Attack 1 and 12th overall. Unfortunately, my water temp was too high after only about ½ way up the mountain, so limped it home (no damage to the engine). 2018 would be a much better experience as we learned from the previous two years and addressed the cooling issues with a completely redesigned and upgraded system. My run in 2018 was more satisfactory and representative of what the car could do. I still had issues, but got by with a final time 10:17. My goal was of course a sub-10 minute run. That 10:17 was with severely fading brakes (after only ½ up the mountain). My turbo manifold decided to peel open like a banana leaving me with no boost with 1 mile to go! I feel very confident in saying this is a sub 10 minute Pikes Peak Hill Climb car! Everything else on the car worked great! Water temp never went over 225! The 12-inch ducting, extended air intact inlets and snow performance water sprays did the trick! I also converted the car to a wide body allowing me to run much wider tires. I also added front dive planes and an AJ Hartman underbody rear diffuser.
