What Makes the RTR Spec 5 Mustang Unique?

Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s Most Ambitious Build

Starting with the S650-generation Ford Mustang GT, the RTR Spec 5 is built on a Performance Package model equipped with Recaro sport seats. From there, Gittin’s team upgrades nearly every aspect—engine, suspension, bodywork, and interior—to create the flagship of the 2026 Mustang lineup.

This is far more than a cosmetic upgrade—it’s a fully engineered track-ready machine that’s also street legal.

Unmatched Power: Supercharged Performance with 870 Horsepower

RTR Spec 5 vs. Mustang GTD

Beneath the hood is a 3.0L Whipple Stage 2 Supercharger, delivering an astonishing 870 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque. That’s even more horsepower than the ultra-exclusive, $300,000 Mustang GTD—Ford’s track-focused supercar—making the RTR Spec 5 one of the most powerful street-legal Mustangs you can own. And with the RTR/Borla performance exhaust, it sounds every bit as thrilling as it drives.

Key Features:

  • Supercharged 3.0L V8
  • 870 HP / 660 lb-ft
  • Choice of 6-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission
  • Electronic Drift Brake (a special handbrake co-developed by Ford and Vaughn Gittin Jr. for precise control during spirited driving and drifting)

Handling Upgrades: Confident, Responsive Suspension

RTR’s Street and Track-Ready Setup

Experience the difference when the road curves. The RTR Tactical Performance Suspension features 30-way adjustable coilovers, model-specific sway bars, and specially tuned dampers—delivering a smooth daily ride with the excitement you want on weekends.

Additional Features:

  • RTR 20-inch forged wheels
  • Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires
  • Two-piece high-performance rotors
  • Wider stance for enhanced grip and control

Design: Fast Looks, Serious Performance

Widebody Carbon Style, Formula Drift Inspired

Every detail of the RTR Spec 5 is designed to stand out. As RTR’s first full widebody system, it uses composite and carbon fiber panels with built-in cooling vents. It’s bold, functional, and built to turn heads.

Exterior Features Include:

  • Carbon fiber front splitter and custom bumper
  • Composite flared fenders with integrated vents
  • Signature RTR grille
  • Decklid spoiler for maximum downforce
  • Optional Premium Paint ($7,500) or Paint-to-Sample Custom Color ($15,000)
    Ask us about current pricing and available colors—our team will guide you through every step of the customization process.
  • Graphics inspired by Formula Drift Mustangs

Interior: RTR Signature Touches

Designed for the Driver—Featuring Gittin Jr.’s Signature

Step inside the Spec 5 and experience gray and black leather-wrapped Recaro seats, a distinctive RTR shift knob, and an engraved dash plaque signed by Vaughn Gittin Jr.. Even the floor mats proudly display RTR branding.

This interior strikes the ideal balance between comfort and motorsport style.

Production: Limited to 50 Units Per Year
