Developed with Vaughn Gittin Jr.
The RTR (Ready to Rock) Mustang is the brainchild of Vaughn Gittin Jr., professional drifter and motorsport icon, blending Mustang performance with drift culture attitude.
Based on the Mustang GT Platform
The RTR Spec 3 starts with a Ford Mustang GT and is upgraded with RTR-specific hardware, styling, and a supercharged V8 engine for track and street performance.
Over 750 Horsepower
Thanks to a Ford Performance supercharger, the Spec 3 produces over 750 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful street-legal Mustangs available.
RTR Tactical Suspension System
The Spec 3 comes with adjustable RTR Tactical Performance suspension, allowing drivers to fine-tune the ride and handling for daily driving, track days, or drifting.
Aggressive RTR Styling Package
It features unique RTR aero elements, including a custom grille with integrated LED accent lighting, front splitter, rocker extensions, rear spoiler, and diffuser for a distinctive, aggressive look.
Signature RTR Wheels and Tires
Spec 3 rides on RTR 20-inch Tech 7 wheels, wrapped in high-performance tires to ensure grip and style match the car’s extreme power output.
Custom Interior Touches
Inside, the RTR Spec 3 adds custom badging, shift knob, illuminated dash panel, and optional Recaro seats, blending performance and personality.
Drift-Ready DNA
RTR Mustangs are built with drift racing influence, and the Spec 3 includes chassis enhancements and tuning inspired by Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s championship-winning Formula Drift cars.
Limited Production
RTR Spec 3 packages are limited and serialized, adding exclusivity and collector appeal to each build. Each car includes a plaque with the build number.
Fully Street Legal with Factory Warranty
Despite the massive performance upgrades, the Spec 3 is 50-state legal and available through authorized Ford dealers with warranty coverage, ensuring peace of mind with all that power.
The Ford Mustang RTR Spec 3 is a factory-backed, street-legal track monster, developed by Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR Vehicles. Based on the Mustang GT, it packs 500+ HP, aggressive aero, and race-ready suspension, bridging the gap between a GT350 and a full-blown GT4 race car.
