2003 Mach 1 Mustang race car STOLEN roughly 5/15/2010
Josh Klugger's Outlaw Drag Radial Mustang was stolen this weekend from a self-storage facility in Ocala, FL on the weekend of 5/15/10. Please forward this to EVERYBODY you know. Maybe we can catch the thieves before they get a chance to dismantle it.
The car was last raced at South Georgia Motorsport Park at the Boost vs No Boost race in Valdosta, GA about 2 weeks earlier. The car was in a 48' enclosed trailer in a self-storage facility in Ocala. Somebody apparently stole a truck to hook up to the gooseneck trailer, pulled the trailer forward, broke into it and stole the race car. They left the stolen truck hooked up to the trailer, so they must have had their own truck and trailer waiting. This is a 6 second drag radial car, so it's not really a car that could be driven very far at all. No radiator, small fuel cell, etc.
If you see any parts to this car, any body panels that look like they may have come off it, any suspicious people that suddenly have a car hidden under a cover somewhere, whatever, please let me know. You can email me at pontisteve@earthlink.net.
The car is so custom, that many parts on the car are unique to the type of racing we do, where the motors make over 2,000 horsepower. The car was just repainted a 2010 Mustang dark blue color. In the sunlight, it can look somewhat purplish. I'll include pictures of the car from when it was black as well, so you can get a good idea of what the whole body looks like. I only have a few pictures of the new paint job, and they are mostly closeups. The body looks the same as it did when it was black. Here are some unique aspects of the car to be on the look out for:
Carbon fiber 03/04 Cobra front bumper cover
Carbon fiber tall cowl induction hood that fits tight to the windshield
Rollcage is painted a dark gray hammercoat color
Hurricane Performance.com windshield sticker
New polished stainless "bullhorn" exhaust pipes that come out the bottom of the fenders and point upward like stacks
The car was just painted dark blue/purplish color, but under the hood it's still painted black.
Black Skinny Kid rear wing
Twin parachutes
MSD/Racepak instrument cluster and Racepak datalogger
Proline Racing 450+" small block Ford motor
Keith Neal powerglide transmission
Carbon Fiber driveshaft
Alston Chassis "Fab 9" rear end housing made to bolt into Mustangs
Twin precision turbo 91mm turbos (huge)
Twin Tial wastegates
Coan bolt-together torque converter (very heavy duty-high rpm stall)
Alston Chassis "Chassisworks" double-adjustable rear shocks and gold color heavy duty control arms
Holeshot brand wheels with Mickey Thompson 315/60/15 drag radials (rims beadlocked in rear)
Kirkey aluminum racing seat w/ black cover
BigStuff 3 EFI computer
AMS-1000 Boost controller
MSD 7531 ignition box
Dry-sump oil system
D&D K-member
Flaming River manual steering rack (with torn tie rod boots)
Stroud cam-lock black racing harness
Aerospace dual caliper rear disc brakes
25.3 Certified chassis (Dan Neumann Race Cars ID plate in drivers door area of cage)
If you even think you see or hear any of these parts for sale, or see the car, please let me know asap at pontisteve@earthlink.net. The dark blue/purple paint is a brand new Mustang color, so it's not popular yet. It looks a lot like Ford's sonic blue color. Please take the time to forward this to as many gearheads as you can!
