Here’s the muscle and the drivers behind taking the checkered flag at the Targa Newfoundland race coming up in September.
500 plus horsepower Coyote engine with a 6 speed manual transmission and Alston Chassis Works suspension in a highly modified 1966 Mustang driven by James and navigated by Jay.
A boatload of work ahead of us plus a ton of track time to make sure everything is set up just right for the ultimate street race.
Remember the Molson Indy in downtown Vancouver? Now picture a race in Newfoundland with no barriers, with full out race prepped Mustangs, Corvette’s, Porsche’s, Lamborghini’s, etc., all blasting at speeds up to 150 miles per hour along the ocean and other roads. Welcome to Targa Newfoundland, it doesn’t get much more exciting than.
A special thanks to our sponsors;

The 1966 Mustang, Targa Newfoundland full on race car project is taking shape. In anticipation of its future, we’re lowering the body over the frame by just over an inch to give it a better/lower appearance later on when it becomes the grocery getter for the family.This project couldn’t happen without our great sponsors who’ve stepped up big time to make it happen. Check them out, these folks are awesome to deal with;
We are very pleased that Chris Alston Chassisworks provided such a fine chassis/suspension system for this project. Their products all fit perfectly and look great so with the performance that they supply, this Mustang will hold its own at the Targa event and others it’ll compete it and still be a great looking/performing street car afterwards for many years to come.
