Drag Racing: A Test of Speed and Power

In our latest video, we took two high-performance vehicles, the Shelby GT500 and the CS 850, for a spin. The Shelby GT500, a legendary American muscle car, was able to complete the standing quarter mile in 11.8 seconds, while the CS 850, a Swedish hot hatch, managed a respectable 12.2 seconds. But what happens when we put these cars through a rolling race? We found that the CS 850's dual-clutch automatic transmission gave it an edge in shifting gears quickly and smoothly.

The Importance of Sound: A Test of Power

Before we hit the track, we took some time to warm up the tires and test the sound of each car. The CS 850 was able to produce a rich, throaty sound that belied its humble appearance. While the Shelby GT500's engine made a more aggressive noise, it was clear that this was a car built for power rather than finesse.

A Brake Test: Safety First

Next up, we took both cars on a brake test from 100 miles per hour. The CS 850 proved to be a safe and reliable choice, able to bring the vehicle to a smooth stop in just a few hundred feet. While the Shelby GT500 also handled the test well, it was clear that this car's massive power output came with some unique challenges.

clive sutton cs 850 mustang basically that's a ford mustang that's been tuned by clive sutton so let me tell you about these cars this shelby gt500 has a 5.2 liter supercharged v8 with 760 horsepower 850 newton meters of torque driving the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox with launch control it's quite heavy though weighs in 1 900 kilos as for the price well in america i think they start from 75 000 pounds however if you want one in the uk you've got to buy it ship it pay various taxes on it prep it for uk roads and those other bits and pieces as a result the price of this car through clyde sutton is 125 000 pounds however it is rather unique not as unique as that one though you see that has a five liter v8 but clive sutton's team has worked on it they fitted a supercharger they're featured and rated exhausted and loads of other bits and pieces brakes suspension carbon fiber bits so much to it as a result it puts out 850 horsepower and 900 newton meters of torque obviously it's rear-wheel drive like this shelby gt500 but that has the manual gearbox i'm driving the auto i'm letting someone else more skilled than me drive the manual so for that particular
