Ford Mustang GT3 debut at Rolex 24 Daytona endurance race | Corpus Christi | McGraw Ford
The Ford Mustang GT3 made its highly anticipated debut at the renowned Rolex 24 at Daytona endurance race. This event, which spans a full 24 hours from 1:40 p.m. on Saturday to the same time on Sunday, is a grueling test of endurance and reliability for any vehicle. For the Mustang GT3, this race marked the culmination of nearly two years of dedicated work in designing, building, and testing a car capable of enduring such intense conditions. The race is akin to other legendary endurance events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans or the 12 Hours of Sebring, where the true mettle of a car is tested. The Mustang GT3's journey to Daytona was not just about racing but about proving its capabilities on a global stage.
The Ford Mustang GT3 has been meticulously developed to excel in endurance racing, focusing on speed, durability, and reliability. During the "Roar Before the 24," a dedicated testing and qualifying session, the Mustang GT3 showcased its potential. The number 65 and 64 Ford Multimatic Motorsports entries qualified ninth and thirteenth in GTD Pro, while the number 55 Proton Competition entry qualified fifteenth in GTD. The car's performance was further tested under the warmest conditions seen at Daytona, affecting tire wear and overall grip. Despite facing challenges such as diffuser damage and mechanical issues, the Mustang GT3 demonstrated resilience, with the number 64 car finishing sixth in GTD Pro. This debut was a significant milestone in the Mustang GT3's development, highlighting its readiness for future competitions.
