Got this sent to me,
And all on pump gas Lets see that camaro or challenger even hold the line with one of these.
And think of this engine in a Raptor...?? I myself would be the first one in line no matter what the price tag was.
Want to have the baddest Mustang in your neighborhood? In your city? In your state? Shelby may have created exactly what you desire. Dubbed the Code Red GT500, this monster muscle car packs an amazing 1,000+ twin turbo charged horsepower!
In September Shelby American posed a question to Mustang enthusiasts on their website; which Mustang excited you the most? Of the cars presented the one that caught everyone's attention was the sinister looking black and red GT500 which was said to create over 1,000 horsepower. At the time the car was nothing more than a rendering and a list of potential options but we can now say for sure that at least one prototype of the car actually exists. The Code Red GT500, which was unveiled today, is a collaboration between Shelby and Chatworth California engine builder Nelson Racing Engines. Taking the GT500's already potent 5.4L engine, Nelson heavily modified it's internals to take the abuse of its new found twin 61mm Turbonetics turbochargers. It then added a dual fuel system allowing the car to run both race and street gas. An electronic boost controller, which has the ability to control boost levels based on gear selection and rpm, was a necessity to make the car drivable. The result? Well according to Tom Nelson the car was built to make between 1,000 and 1,200 horsepower but can peak at a crazy 1,400hp!
Will Shelby build it? That’s hard to say. They have definitely made the baddest truly streetable GT500 we've ever seen and we would love to see more.
Check out the video below for clips of the car being thrashed on the street!
