Race-Bred Street Cred: 2026 Ford Mustang Dark Horse SC

Ford Racing recently introduced the new Mustang Dark Horse SC. Designed, engineered, and manufactured in house from expertise hard-won on tracks around the world, Mustang Dark Horse SC is the most advanced, powerful and track capable Mustang Dark Horse ever.

By leveraging race-proven learnings from Mustang GT3 and performance technology from Mustang GTD, Mustang Dark Horse SC offers customers a driving experience that’s distinct from the exclusive Mustang GTD but is a significant step up over the standard Mustang Dark Horse in terms of horsepower, torque, and cutting-edge performance equipment. The new Mustang Dark Horse SC expands the Mustang Dark Horse family to challenge Europe’s premium sports cars with a supercharged V8 and race-bred technology and learnings that can only come from America’s race team.

“Since we introduced Dark Horse in ’22 and Mustang GTD in ’23, we’ve established Mustang as a performance brand that can take on the world’s best,” said Mark Rushbrook, global director of Ford Racing. “Mustang Dark Horse SC is the next chapter, drawing on lessons from Mustang GT3 and technology and learnings from Mustang GTD. It demonstrates exactly how Ford Racing is bringing our race and road operations together.”
