HURST PERFORMANCE ANNOUNCES
LIMITED EDITION MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE PACE CAR SERIES
BFGoodrich/Hurst Mustang Makes Debut
as Official Pace Car at Ford Racing Mustang Challenge
Irvine, Calif. (September 22, 2009) – Hurst Performance, a company responsible for some of
the most iconic and collectible pace cars in racing history, announced today that it will build 50
limited production replicas of its supercharged BF Goodrich/Hurst 2010 Mustang Pace Car.
The original BF Goodrich/Hurst Mustang made its debut as the official pace car at the Ford
Racing Mustang Challenge race on Sept. 19.
“Hurst has a unique place in the world of pace cars,” said Ron Flint, President of Hurst
Performance Vehicles. “We are privileged to honor Hurst’s history and again build cars that are
fun to collect and even more fun to drive.”
The stunning limited production Hurst Mustang Pace Cars feature massive 20” Hurst polished,
forged aluminum wheels with gold painted center spokes wrapped in BFGoodrich g-Force
™
KDW tires for maximum performance.
The cars are distinctive, with painted gold racing stripes and official “Pace Car” logos on white.
Each car has a special white convertible top, boot and interior. The exterior delivers HURST
identity with subtle detailing and features including real metal badges and a unique HURST AIR-
SPEED® rear deck spoiler.
The gold HURST T-handle shifter is the centerpiece of the interior for both manual and automatic
cars and the seats and floor mats feature the famous Hurst gold and black “H” logos.
Handling and attitude are provided by Eibach, with Hurst-tuned coil over shocks, springs and
sway bars. Under the hood, the supercharged engine pounds out 435+ horsepower and over 400
lb.-ft of torque with Magnaflow custom-tuned stainless steel performance exhaust finishing off
the sound and performance statement with authority.
Each limited edition production car comes with a commemorative edition etched metal dash
badge, autographed signatures from the Hurst Team in the trunk and a Certificate of Authenticity
confirming its collectability and provenance. Every Hurst buyer is invited to take delivery at the
Hurst Performance Center in Irvine, California to meet our team and tour the facility.
Vehicles are available for purchase immediately with first deliveries in October. MSRP Pricing
for the HURST/Mustang Pace Car Series Convertibles is $36,450.00 above the cost of the base
Mustang GT or Premium GT Convertible. Please visit www.hurst-performance.com or call
949/261-5500 to order your car or make inquiries.
Now that its run with the Ford Mustang Racing Challenge is over, the unique and highly-
collectible original Pace Car will make special appearances at numerous race tracks, car shows,
parades and even SEMA, before being auctioned for charity at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale
Auction in January 2010.
Proceeds of the auction will go towards benefiting the newest Victory Junction Camp in Kansas
City, KS to enrich the lives of children with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses. The
vehicle was generously donated by Woodhouse Auto family of Blair, Nebraska with many of
Hurst’s suppliers joining in to donate parts and services for this very worthy cause.
