2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca


CAR GARAGE | 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca | Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca builds on the bumper-to-bumper improvements found on the standard Boss while further stiffening the chassis and installing an aerodynamics package Carried over almost in its entirety from the Ford Racing Boss 302R. The result is the limited-production Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca package - the ultimate 2012 Boss, named to commemorate the first-place finish at the Boss 302 Trans-Am 1970 series opener. "The Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca puts a race-ready version of the new Ford Mustang Boss 302 directly into enthusiasts' hands," said Mark Fields, Ford president of The Americas. "Laguna Seca is not intended for Boss who  buyers simply want an exhilarating daily driver.


Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca cars are powered by the same smooth, high-winding 440-hp 5.0-liter V8 as the standard Boss, since the engine was already tuned specifically for road racing. I Said David Pericak, Mustang chief engineer. " Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca cars Eliminate the rear seats, instead adding a cross-car X-brace That couples the structure Between the rear wheels. While standard Ford Mustang Boss 302 cars get vented brake dust shields to help cool the rotors, Laguna Seca models receive Ford Racing front brake ducts That outside force water directly onto the 14-inch vented front rotors, Helping to Eliminate brake fade and Ensure hard, repeatable late braking on the track.


As a race car should, Ford Mustang Boss 302 models with the Laguna Seca package look like nothing else on the road. Red also sets off the front grille, mirror caps and rear pedestal spoiler, while Laguna Seca rear banging and unique two-tone red and silver wheels complete the transformation. Adding both to appearance and aerodynamics, an aggressive front splitter for track use adds down force at the front of the car, while Helping channel water under and around the car.


The Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca front splitter is really a Ford Racing piece we've lightly adapted for our purposes, " explains Pericak. " A winning race car has to do everything well, and we've had the ability to test all the engineering That went into Boss Laguna Seca on the Ford Racing 302R.
