Ford’s Mustang is coming to Le Mans in GT3 trim, and amid the spectacle, Ford has also revealed an insane performance package for the street-legal Mustang GTD. This Mustang gleefully blurs the line between road and racetrack. The GTD's Performance package adds dive planes and a splitter to the front fascia, along with underbody aero flaps and a drag reduction system similar to what's used in Formula 1 integrated within the massive rear wing. A Lightweight package sheds sound-deadening material and adds 20-inch magnesium wheels. Ford showcased the package with the Mustang GTD dripping in a new paint color called Chroma Flame.

A father’s love for his offspring knows no bounds, so it comes as no surprise that in many cases, the son or daughter is along for a ride on easy street. Although nepotism does exist in hot-rodding, a few pointed questions usually weed those cases out after a minute or two. Make no mistake: In the case of Russell and Cavan Cameron of Noblesville, Indiana, it's a true team effort with the added dimension of scholastic achievement, and as you’ll discover here, that’s not hyperbole.
