Why the combo

The Formula car and V8 Mustang sit at opposite ends of the motorsport spectrum. The Formula car is about raw cornering grip and aerodynamic feel; the V8 Mustang is about straight-line acceleration and that unmistakable V8 soundtrack down the main straight. Running them back-to-back on the same circuit is the simplest way to feel the contrast, and makes The Bend a genuine destination for motorsport fans visiting Adelaide or South Australia more broadly.
