If you live anywhere near Wauconda, Illinois, then you should have your plans set to attend Victor Ford’s annual Winter Car Guys Open House, set for this Sunday, March 3, from 1-4PM. The event goes off at Victor Ford Quick Lane at 1451 Old Rand Road, Wauconda, IL 60084. Why should you be there? That’s a good question with a great answer – because the legendary Kenny Brown will be on the premises offering a look at the latest Kenny Brown Performance creation, the GT4-RS Mustang.
The GT4-RS Mustang has been designed to be the ultimate “track day” car that boasts an impressive 7.2:1 power-to-weight ratio that, when combined with the sweet Kenny Brown AGS 4.0 Advanced Geometry Suspension System, makes the 495-horse 5.0L a feared performer on the track. The car boasts a ton of other upgrades like Baer monoblock six-piston calipers, Forgeline wheels, and Pirelli skins.
Kenny also plans to discuss coil-over shock technology as KB Performance and Paul Brown Racing have been working hand-in-hand with JRZ Suspension Engineering to develop a line of Kenny Brown-specific “RS” coil-over systems for the 2005-14 Mustang, including the Boss 302 and GT500 models.
There are four different levels of the suspension system tailored to an owner’s use of the car, from weekend warriors who make laps a couple of times a year, all the way up to someone who wants to make a charge in NASA American Iron competition. Kenny Brown Performance requires that you call in to order the kit as their technical experts need to discuss your particular application to set you up with the best system for your needs.
If you’re a road-race demon, chances are that these parts will play a significant role in lowering your lap times. In addition to having a chance to speak with Kenny, our sources tell us that Jeff Victor of Victor Ford has many specialty and collector Mustangs that will be on display at the event. It’s one that makes sense to block a few hours out for on Sunday if you’re in the Chicago area.
