They ask, is this the next? Looks about as crazy as those old lightweight Hemi Darts Mopar pushed out the back door back in the day.

Thats someones drag car...
The looks of the pipes underneeth and the huggggggeeeeeeeeeeeee hood intake would suggest something bigger then a 5.4. Or the 5.4 has an old school setup sitting on top of the block. Either way not street legal with the slicks on the back and the super thin drag wheels on the front. Looks like something for Hot Wheels to make some money off of.

LOL.
As for slicks, there was a car up in Thunder Bay that was all custom-made except for 40% of the frame. Legally titled as a Vette, the car had two small groves in the tires, which made them street legal.

Ya don't count on those groves in the tires to let an MTO Officer let you go if you get pulled over. They mainly make the groves in them for different track conditions.

I think he was running something like Hoosier's Quicktime Pro's, which might also be on the above Mustang.

They mainly make the groves in them for different track conditions. They make a lot of things DOT approved. Hell they make tires and classify them all season. I really don't care about this matter. The car is redic and clearly not a new gen mustang being produced. Just some redneck had borrowed his kids bike ramp and bolted it to the hood lol

Maybe the big scoop is overcompensating for something else?
