Mustang Week took over Moody Gardens in Galveston, TX from April 24–27, bringing together over 2,100 Mustangs, 50 vendors, and a crowd of more than 18,000 spectators. With a mix of drift demos, burnout contests, and monster truck madness, the energy leaned younger and rowdier, but the shared passion for Mustangs, new and old, was loud and clear across the entire venue.
American Racing showed up ready to represent, pulling in with our event trailer and two standout builds at the booth. For a brand built on American muscle, few events offer a better cross-section of old-school soul and modern performance. Mustang Week gave us a chance to reconnect with longtime fans and get face-to-face with the next generation keeping the Mustang legacy alive.

AR952 GT Street: Built for the S650 Era
One of the headliners at our booth was a new S650 Mustang sitting on AR952 GT Street wheels, bringing a lightweight, modern muscle look to the latest chapter in Mustang evolution. With sharp lines and aggressive fitment, the GT Street delivered exactly what today’s builders want: track-ready style with everyday drivability.

AR924 Crossfire: Aggressive Look for the S550
Next to it, an S550 build fitted with AR924 Crossfire wheels held its own as a crowd favorite. The Crossfire’s split-spoke design, concave profile, and race-inspired stance hit the sweet spot for Mustang fans looking to balance style and performance without going full race-spec.

G Force: Still Turning Heads for the Fox Body Crowd
Even with a younger turnout, the VN516 G Force wheel caught the eyes of plenty of Fox Body faithful. Proof that good design holds its ground; the G Force keeps that classic five-spoke muscle DNA alive for builders sticking with the old school.
