as Car Show Season Starts in Earnest Down South
If you've had enough of snow, sleet, rain and the cold winter weather, you need to make plans
right now to head south and get a jump on the upcoming carshow season. The Mustang Club
of America's first "Nationals" show of 2010 is set for March 26-28 in Florida, at the Pensacola
Interstate Fair Grounds. The 31st Annual Gulf Coast National Mustang & All Ford Show,hosted
by the Gulf Coast Regional Mustang Club, runs in tandem with several other club shows at the
site, so come and check out all the great cars!
If that's not quite soon enough for you, you could catch the Mid-FloridaMustang Club's 23rd
Annual Mustang & Ford Roundup next Sunday, Feb. 20, at Waterford Lakes Town Center in
Orlando, Florida. Or maybe you'd rather make your car part of a "Horses in the House!"
museum display during the Tupelo (Mississippi) Cruise and Museum show on March 13,
coordinated by several Mustang clubs in the Mid-South. For details on these and other great
Mustang events, simply click on the "Events" tab on the MCA's web site. And to stay connected

The Boss is Back!
Boss 302R will be Track Ready
Forty years after its namesake became a road racing legend, the BOSS is back on track for
2010 with a new 5.0-liter V-8 engine. In honor of the 40th anniversary of Parnelli Jones1970
Trans-Am championship in a Mustang BOSS 302 prepared by Bud Moore Engineering, Ford
Racing is introducing the BOSS 302R, a factory-built race car ready for track days and road
racing in a number of Grand-Am, SCCA and NASA classes.
No Secret - The 5.0 Liter V-8 is Back in the 2011 Mustang
It's probably the worst kept secret of 2009. But we can now officially tell you the 5.0 Liter V-8 is
back! The 2011 Ford Mustang GT arrives with an all-new advanced 5.0 literV-8 engine,
developed by a passionate cadre of enthusiastic engineers who rallied around the common
goal of delivering more than 400 horsepower. The modern 5.0-liter four-valve Twin
Independent Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT) V-8 engine in the new Mustang GT will deliver
412 horsepower and 390 ft.-lb. of torque. At the same time, fuel economy is projected to be
better than the previous model and unsurpassed in the segment.
