Check This Out! Non-Acura Warning

I hang around Acurazine but I've been a member of multiple Mustang sites for many years. This vid. just popped up and I thought some of you might want to take a look!

I couldn't see the video because I'm at work but 1,900hp on the stock bottom! Ford builds some bulletproof engines.

I read the comments where the car is towed around but called a street car. IMO a true street car drives everywhere it goes, no trailers allowed, no exceptions. Not taking anything away but I would not call it something it's not.

It gives a new respect to Top Fuel. In 1/4 mile they're going 50mph faster than the 1,900hp GT was going in one mile. Apples to oranges I know.

They trailer'd it there because it got a new tune, etc. It was running 42PSI so one little thing and boom! But yeah, that GT bottom end is ridiculous.
