Mustang Aerodynamics - 252 mph at Bonneville Salt Flats

I came across a FR500C Mustang developed by Hajek Motorsports for a Bonneville speed record. While this is certainly no fuel efficiency wonder it does have significant aerodynamic modifications for that high speed run.

Plenty of photos to look through here: Bonneville 2008

and here: Wind Tunnel 2008

slick 'fast cut' video here:

Unfortunately, I haven't found any more info on the wind tunnel and aerodynamic work on the car. The website is more focused on the motor than the aero

FWIW,
Tim
