The RTR-C was the inspiration to create the Mustang RTR, which is basically a toned-down version that offers similar looks without the carbon or the serious performance gains. The reason I chose Autosport Dynamics (ASD) in Charlotte, NC to build the RTR-C is due to their attention to detail and complete understanding of my vision. I wanted a Mustang that was simply untouchable and was a work of art; all the way from the carbon fiber HRE CF40's, to the way that the weave of the carbon lines up just as it does on a Zonda. Initially we were only building one RTR-C, however, it just came out to be too incredible to not share. We will be offering ten to the public and they will be available in either matte or clear finish. Monday I will post the first-ever full picture of the completed car!

HRE CF40 wheels (20x11 and 19x9.5) wrapped in Falken FK452's. Wilwood six-piston front and four-piston custom RTR-C rear brakes.

Rear diffuser.

@magnus- They are Fog.

BSYC- This is the RTR-C the daddy of the Mustang RTR the body is fully handbuilt out of carbon fiber. All of the metal was cut off and replaced. The RTR Does not have HRE wheels the RTR-C does. They are 2 different machines.

@JR:  

Any plans on entering time attack events?  I am dying to see the RTR-C and RTR duke it out with the JDM's and US's finest.  As well, time to see a real duel S281E vs 427R vs GT500KR vs RTR/RTR-C.  

Also, the 250lbs weight saving you mentioned on the other post, just to confirm, it's the RTR-C?  Any weight savings on the RTR?
