My recent trip to test this beast at Exotic Racing Las Vegas got me a best lap time almost a full 10sec slower that the new record below!!! I guess I'm also not a current/former Nascar driver.... Pretty cool to see the 2020 GT500 hanging with the "in crowd".
A cut and paste from an Exotics Racing Newsletter I received today.
NEW FORD MUSTANG SHELBY GT500
AVAILABLE ON TRACK!
If you’re wondering why the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is at Exotics Racing, let’s start by saying that it’s no ordinary Mustang. The GT500 comes with 760 horsepower, can reach 60 MPH from a standing start in 3.3 seconds and will dust off the quarter mile in 10.6 seconds. If that doesn’t surprise you then consider this: It corners exceedingly well too.
With wide sticky Michelin tires and an active, multi-mode suspension, the GT500 maneuvers corners at a sizzling rate. You may think that all that power means more fishtailing while trying to bring the Mustang to stop. This is not the case at all! The super-charged 5.2-liter V8 offers its prodigious power in a flow as smooth as any European supercar without wild and uncontrollable surges.
The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is a muscle car in name and heritage only. Below the skin, it’s all supercar and that’s why it’s available at Exotics Racing, starting at five laps for $299.
Specifications
Power / Torque ...... 760 hp / 625 lb-ft
Top Speed ............. 180 mph
