We're pretty much done with the Mustang->ke428's 50th Anniversary celebrations here in the U.S., but the iconic muscle car->ke507 is about to get one more birthday party in Europe. The event will occur during the Silverstone->ke1009 Classic in late July, when more than 25 competition-prepped Mustangs take on the famed track in two different races->ke447.

To preview the event that we expect to become the world's largest gathering of race-spec Mustangs on one grid, the folks over at Silverstone Classic have put together a video that pays tribute to the memorable car chase from the "Bullitt" film. Regarded as one of the most influential in movie history, the chase saw a 1968 Mustang driven by Steve McQueen gain on a 1968 Dodge Charger through the streets of Chicago.

Recreated right on the Silverstone track with vehicles that looked similar to those in the movie, the scene is a worthy replica of the "Bullitt" scene with all the drifting and the V-8 revving. It all comes to an abrupt halt near the end, when the Charger "blows up" in a poorly rendered crash. At least they didn't wreck a perfectly restored classic.

If you're planning on traveling to Britain for the Mustang races, this year's Silverstone Classic is scheduled between July 25th through 27th.
