Ford Mustang GT4 Rallies Back To Win Queensland 2025

Six purpose-built Ford Mustang GT4 racers took the green flag amongst 28 total competitors in Queensland over the weekend. While the races on May 31st, 2025 were rain-soaked and unkind to several Blue Oval race cars, they managed to turn things around on Sunday – and the hot, dry track proved exactly the right formula for a Mustang GT4 victory.

George Miedecke and Rylan Grey were the ones to beat in the second one-hour sprint in Queensland. They were able to outrun the field in their Ford Mustang GT4 despite a late-race yellow flag that stacked everyone back up. Nothing could stand in the way of the Miedecke and Grey, who led flag-to-flag in the short contest.

“It was a tough start on Saturday but we bounced back and won on Sunday,” Miedecke said. “We led from the get-go, with a bit of contact from behind at one stage, and then Rylan Grey stretched the gap. He was under the pressure at the end with a Safety Car restart but did the job as usual.”

Not every Ford Mustang GT4 did well in Queensland. David Schramm’s race car suffered a heavy front-end impact, unfortunately wrecking from the lead after contact with a competitor. While the driver was uninjured, the race car is worse for wear, but he plans to have it back up and running before its second GT4 start, which is scheduled for July.

Andrew Miedecke of Miedecke Motorsport said that he’s thrilled to watch the Mustang GT4 gain traction in Australian road racing.

“We now have the single biggest car count for GT4 racing anywhere in the world,” said Andrew Miedecke. “The Mustang is a natural fit. Australians understand front-engined, rear-wheel drive cars, and love the V8 engine roar. They are turning to the Mustang because they are familiar with the Coyote V8, the Holinger gearbox and MoTec engine management.”

The Ford Mustang GT4 certainly is a good fit for Aussies. In fact, it absolutely cleaned house at Bathurst last year.

  1. Here’s an ideal instead of Ford spending hundreds of millions of dollars on racing how about using that money to fix ever escalating Quality Control problems.
