Featured Driver: Dalton Stroup
DALTON STROUP | #DS80 | ECOBOOST FOXBODY
Dalton Stroup has been building and breaking Fords since before he could legally drive. As lead mechanic, fabricator, and parts designer at Jacks & Jokers Garage, he's the guy who makes impossible swaps possible — and then takes them sideways at competition speed.
His build: a foxbody notchback Mustang running a turbocharged Ford Ecoboost swap. Cage Kits FIA cage. Radium fuel cell. Synergy suspension. No LS, no 5.0 — just four cylinders, a turbo, and the kind of confidence that comes from knowing you built every inch of it yourself.
Dalton competes in Gridlife's drift series and is the founder of Stroup Performance, developing bolt-on Ecoboost swap engine mount kits for the Ford chassis that everyone else forgot about.
The DS80 Signature tee is his first Featured Driver collaboration with SlideStar Apparel. When you buy a driver shirt, a portion goes directly to the driver. You're not just wearing merch — you're backing the build.
