The 500bhp FordPerformance Mustang Dark Horse is the most track-capable 5-litre Mustang road car yet. JamesTaylorEVO puts it through its paces -
Separating the Dark Horse visually from other Mustangs are darkened headlights, a gloss black grille, fixed rear wing, side skirts and its own set of ‘forward-facing pony’ Dark Horse badges everywhere bar the nose.
Although in some ways it seems a shame to exchange the traditional twin-cowl, ‘double eyebrow’ Mustang dashboard for a set of screens, the new setup is a smart, modern-looking interface, and the right-hand screen’s large size makes it user-friendly, without obscuring the bonnet line.
With the dimensions essentially the same as the previous car, it’s a wide car, and feels it, even here in North Carolina, but you quickly adapt to it and it’s not an intimidating car to drive. We sample the manual at Charlotte Motor Speedway, on the ‘roval’ course incorporating one of the steep, banked NASCAR turns and tighter, undulating, technical corners on the infield. As before, there’s automatic throttle blipping rev-match software , which works beautifully on the road and very nicely most of the time on track, although there are a few moments where I hear the rear tyres chirrup and feel a shimmy from the rear axle while going down the gears for a tight hairpin.
