Hawkeye O'Saben Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 Can that be referred to as a 'stock' Mustang tho? To me it's not a stock Mustang because it's gotten the Shelby treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Beyond Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 This car was built by Ford. Shelby had nothing to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Boss Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 In one day he had 140,000 views of it. My guess is he's making a lot of money. Anyone know what kind of ad revenue that translates to? I'm just glad to see them finally getting out in the wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the clarification and intelligently answering my question.. I didn't catch that the Bradenton Car was pre production, the Title said it was a stock mustang.

But it did get massive performance upgrades from the Mustang GT, regardless of who did them. That's why it doesn't seem like a 'stock' Mustang to me.

Hawkeye O'Saben Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I think Randy likes it. A lot. Amazing that the carbon fiber package takes 5 seconds off the track. Wow. I know people doing lots of stuff for 1 second. That's just insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheppd01 Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 I just did a YouTube search for the 2020 GT500 and limited the search to uploads for the past week. On the first page there were three videos with issues on the cars. 1. Engine light comes on - misfires over 4,000 rpm 70 miles on the car 2. Clutch overheating after two passes on the drag strip. 3. Rod knock with 4 miles on the car. Not a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedPhenome you tuber he has really been using his car has ran it on at least 4 strips several passes each plus tracked it at least twice already within a month of ownership. Some click bait in this post as he did overheat clutch dragging it but it is designed to through a code and limit torque for safety when it does he tried to slip the DCT for launch to hard code cleared and he has ran it at strip since. 3. this does appear to be a quality control issue out of flat rock but name me a huge manufacturer that’s does not. Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Electric Boat who build Billion dollar weapon systems, aircraft, boats and Submarines have them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
