Apart from landing a starring role in the upcoming movie, Need for Speed, the wide-body Ford Mustang is set to hit Homestead-Miami Speedway this weekend as the official pace car of the NASCAR Sprint Cup’s Ford EcoBoost 400 series finale. Driving the car will be Ramon Rodriguez, one of the stars of the movie, which hits cinemas nationwide on March 14, 2014. The custom Mustang was created solely for the movie, although it also appears in the latest Need for Speed Rivals video game, and it features a wide-body kit along with 22-inch wheels, a supercharged V-8 engine and enlarged intakes up front. According to the Ford Motor Company, the car is capable of handling up to 900 horsepower.
