October 13, 2009 was a big day for NASCAR, Ford, Roush Fenway Racing, and Con-Way Freight as the No. 16 Con-Way Freight Ford Mustang was presented to media in Concord, N.C. It was the first time the car had been revealed to the public.
In July of 2009 Ford announced that the Mustang, the company's iconic pony car that has raced for all 45 years of its existence, would compete in the NASCAR Nationwide Series beginning in July 2010, when a limited rollout of NASCAR’s new car begins at Daytona International Speedway. The car will be driven by driver Colin Braun.
“I’m so happy that Con-way Freight decided to move up with me to the Nationwide Series for 2010,” Braun said. “They have been a great sponsor for the past two years in the truck series so it means a lot to me that they will continue to support me in the future. I’m also looking forward to driving a Mustang next year."
