We also take a look into the anatomy of the new S1 Supercar, a marvel with its aluminum chassis, carbon fiber body, and a distinctive four-cylinder engine that produces 450 horsepower. In the second part of our conversation with Steve, we take a look at the six-speed manual transmission and the features that position the new Mustang as a fantastic daily driver. Steve shares the tailored changes they make to the Mustang, from altering aerodynamics to customizing interiors and powertrains, right down to the unique numbering system.   We also take a look into Steve's life off the track - his proud moment at the Alumni Hall of Fame, his daughter Molly's ventures in Austin, Texas, and his enduring love for Mustangs. In our feature segment, Jeff Dziekan brings in some classic but maybe not so classy ads from yesteryear.All this and more on this episode of In Wheel Time Car Talk!Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time car talk any time?
