Meet ‘Vicious,’ the twin turbo, supercharged, 1,000-horsepower Mustang that defines brutality.
Seen Through Glassis a British YouTube channel that’s visiting California to film some cool cars. This particular example of automotive brutality is built by Timeless Kustoms.
Now, while we believe Mustangs are to be driven, we also understand this is not a daily driver. Vicious is a fully-built race car vaguely dressed as a road going Mustang. The brutal electro-pneumatic sequential gearbox on its own is enough to make it unsuitable for a daily commute. However, matched to a purpose-built chassis and the weaponized Coyote engine, it makes a lot of sense as a track car.
Once we understand the owners mindset, then everything about the car, apart from the all red interior, makes sense. From the front, the car isn’t pretty. It’s a product of function over form and that’s the coolest thing about this car.
Ian Wright has been a professional writer for two years and is a regular contributor to Corvette Forum, Jaguar Forum, and 6SpeedOnline, among other auto sites.
His obsession with cars started young and has left him stranded miles off-road in Land Rovers, being lost far from home in hot hatches, going sideways in rallycross cars, being propelled forward in supercars and, more sensibly, standing in fields staring at classic cars. His first job was as a mechanic and then trained as a driving instructor before going into media production.
The automotive itch never left though, and he realized writing about cars is his true calling. However, that doesn’t stop him from also hosting the Both Hand Drive podcast.
