Background & Plans
Intention is a well-sorted HPDE car in the ethos of what I believe the 2008/09 Bullitt should have been, a spiritual precursor to the Boss 302.

The focus is upon balanced and well-engineered systems using Ford Racing and FR500-inspired components wherever practical. Each modification is meant to compliment the others, creating a cohesive package rather than another victim of the parts cannon.

The car started as an exceptionally low-mileage example owned by a lifelong Mustang collector. Most of the engine modifications were completed early in the car's life. My role is developing the chassis, braking, and cooling system into a complete driver's car.
