Racer Delays IMSA GTX Mustang?

Along with the previously mentioned additions to the Racer/Sideways "Group 5" production for 2013, the Bill Scott Racing Zakspeed Miller Mustang that contested IMSA's GTX class in 1981 has apparently been delayed from its original 4th quarter 2012 release date.

The latest best estimate is that the Sideways Mustang (the real car was based heavily on the European Capri Group 5 racer) will break cover no sooner than the second quarter of 2013.

Some news sources are now showing the "early" paint scheme for the Racer/Sideways Mustang, which is mostly white with some red trim, as opposed to the "late" scheme above which was shown on Racer's original announcement. If a change of decoration is in the works, this could explain the delay in producing this model.
