Drag Race! Shelby GT500 vs. Mustang Mach 1 | Which Mustang Is the Fastest Mustang?

Күн бұрын

Our Ford Shelby GT500 is no stranger to the drag race track. Unfortunately, it's also no stranger to losing. Over the past year, we've seen it lose to the likes of the Tesla Model Y, BMW M8 and Chevrolet Corvette to name a few (at least it beat the Dodge Challenger Hellcat!). In this drag race video, Carlos Lago and Kurt Niebuhr bring out another muscle car for the Shelby GT500 to race: the Ford Mustang Mach 1. Will the 760-horsepower GT500 leave the 480-hp Mustang Mach 1 in the dust? Which of these Ford muscle cars has the fastest 0-60 time? We can't wait to find out. It's Ford vs. Ford! Mustang vs. Mustang! This is the Ford Shelby GT500 vs. Ford Mustang Mach 1 drag race.

@ms3ben 2 жыл бұрын

That because the Shelby loses traction from a 40 roll and doesn’t launch hard on the street (launch bogs on street due to the DCT setup) taking away from the gap effect. Shelby 60-130 is a good 4sec faster than the Mach 1 and the gap would get even worse after 130… Quick stoplight to stoplight street races could be close due to my above stated reasons. Anyway, both great cars; but, who buys the new Mach 1 with an auto when there’s the available Tremec !?

this is old but when in drag strip mode on the mach 1 along with traction off with sport engaged you have to shift early or the tires will lose traction and you’ll end up spinning out and shifting early will prevent that from 1st 2nd and 2nd to 3rd
