📸 /u/media 📹 Mustangs Of Daytona

A selection of my favourite Mustang photos from my week at the Roar Before the 24 and the Rolex 24. What better way to cap off the week than watching the Mustangs finish 1st and 3rd in class. Also cool to see Austin Cindric in something other than a NASCAR

I really like 14.

Totally a poster quality catch of the Mustang and the Ferris wheel.

Thanks for sharing. I'm a sucker for that 66 GTD Mustang and pic 15 is perfect with the Daytona lettering in the shot as well. Great shots!

What are they using to illuminate the horse on the sides? EL wire?

Most likely, yes. Doubt its a reflector.

Is it not just shiny or reflective paint? The only lighting I see is on the window

These pictures dont show it well, but you can see it clear in the races. I dont believe it is a simple reflector since the mustang outline glows evenly across the whole line from all angles. I think its a light like the BMW GTP grill lights (thin light wire, maybe LED?)
