And people say Muscle Cars can't corner... I know technically it's a pony car, but you got the point. Amazing the music of this V8 getting almost 8k rpm...
I was at this race and my friend and I were blown away by this thing hunting down the 360. It's a shame he was leading then his engine blew up by super speedway turn 4. I can't wait for HSR's classic 24 to return next year in Daytona: awesome, cheap, and fun event.
Really.?! You we’re at this race? And the engine “blew up”? So….can you give the details good Sir? I was in the pits parked next to this car and team. Please enlighten us with your version of reality.
I went to Watkins Glenn back in 11 or 12 during SAAC and the Vintage race car clubs track day and watched 289 cars go full song and realizing some things :-)
Ford knew what they were doing in the early 60's since then the parts for these engines, and the equipment in general has become quantum leaps better the tires especially. I think I've seen this car before if it's real Shelby then I have!
I mean those other drivers not really racing cuz it sure seemed like. Passed everyone like its just another day. Awesome build on the engine and great driving as well.
Maybe he missed qualifying due to mechanical problems, however in short track stockcar racing back in the day at weekly shows fast cars those with most points would start in the back and therefore have to work their way through the field. Made for a better show.
braking technique with the left foot (while accelerating fully) ..... it is not for really braking, it is used to transfer the weight towards the front axle, in order to load the tires with adhesion prior to a change of direction of the car.
I'd love to get out there n practice like that with a bunch of cars, pretty bad ass, man. Plus, a mustang makes it even better! The race itself, they aren't gonna let you by so easy, plus they wont let up either lol. Still would be a blast regardless. My dad races stock cars here at the Indianapolis Speedrome/Anderson Speedway!
Lots of engine in that Mustang. I may be wrong but I don't think engines of that era shifted at over 7500RPMs. Some one commented it blowed up after this. No matter what, a fun ride.
Clearly the Shelby ate everyone's lunch! Is it me or was the Shelby loose coming out of the turns and having to slow (comparatively speaking) going into the turns. It flat out put beast mode on every car there in the straights and high bank. The only time they could stay with it was in corners it seemed. Probably just me! Awesome driving job and pure beast mode Mustang!
I went to Daytona Speedway in ``09 and took a driving lesson with ``Richard Petty Driving Experience`` and let me assure one thing I wasnt fast as hell as this Stang. LoL!
I race with Olly Bryant in the HSR Historic Stock Car Class, Group 8, SCB with a 7500rpm chip rule.

Brilliant driving and nothing beats that sound, but what are the suspension specs? I doubt he's still driving with a period suspension setup, with a modern suspension and shock upgrade almost all older racecars will be competitive with their modern day counterparts. And having a Shelby also helps alot :-)
Imagine being in your limited production European sports car designed for the track, and suddenly an American car originally never meant for the track says "pardon me gentlemen, coming through" and i get it, it's not anywhere close to stock, and i guess the others aren't either, but even so, it's still a square brick in comparison. A brick with a small block pushrod V8 making music to my ears. Lol.
Mother of God!!!!!!! Understand the Mustang greasing the inferior engineering of the Porsche’s but the way this car overhauls and crush’s the Ferrari and full blown race cars. Mid evil!!!!!
It's a good driver and a massive fast car, which is why it's not very interesting. The car is obviously faster than the rest of cars so it was kinda boring, I thought they were very similar in speed and acceleration, that would be interesting to watch someone make it to 1st place from 25th, like gp2 or something
Was the driver of that yellow Ferrari (near the end of the clip) asleep? A mustang - admittedly with a great driver - just kept up with a Ferrari through a chicane. Now I know this is a race spec mustang but a bloody Mini can out corner these cars
he was about 10seconds off the lead car time... 1:59 vs 1:51s.... ahead of him by time were porsche caymans, cup cars, and others. still impressive. the engine i hear was not original by any stretch. www.hsrrace.com/2014_Events/Daytona/Results/G510.pdf
+David Acampora Type1 High Performance spent a lot of time trying to get it to turn, that coupled with the fact that Olly Bryant is a great driver makes it look easy. Daytona is basically a big long straight away for this car.
Historic Sportscar Racing Your ignorance is almost as bad as your observations. If this Mustang could not turn or stop with the other cars it would not have crushed the widow makers in the infield. Granted the motor is special. The Mustang does toy with the remainder of the field on the banking and straights but it still has to stop and turn. I am not saying the other cars cannot turn. The Mustang is not as far behind as you are insinuating. You need to stop watching Top Gear.
awesome! talkin' about spanking everybody left and right.... that was great! Though I have a question if anyone can answer, why is the fuel line in the passenger compartment (you can see the big -10an line and big inline fuel filter on the passenger side door cage tube)???? I'm no road racer, but I would think that's a major tech issue right there, but I guess that's ok with this series?? Seems totally nuts to have a fuel line in there should a wreck occur, and I'm guessing it's an electric fuel pump too. Couldn't pay me to race with a fuel line in my lap. Awesome car though, so cool to see an old mustang taking out Porsche's and the like.
+ratmousebastard As long as its metal braided they allow them through the drivers compartment. Several tracks in our area are the same way with the rules. Might also be an oil line to a cooler in the back? Looks pretty big.
+SqueegeeBeaverRacing and +eatingsnowman, that's insane, you couldn't pay me to put a fuel line inside. I don't think it's an oil line, that's a common fuel filter, unless they just used a big screen in it to allow oil to flow well. But putting a big dry sump tank in the back? I myself wouldn't even want an oil line in there, you could get some pretty horrible burns should that line come apart in a bad wreck. Braided lines themselves are very strong, but the hose ends are just aluminum, one good direct hit on them and they'll break off pretty easily. That is an obviously pretty powerful engine, so a big fuel line would make sense. Maybe it's just lines hooked up to an automatic high flowing coffee maker, he did go from the back of the pack to the front like it was nothing! lol
I have never seen more Porsches passed in one video. Amazing!
This is so much better than any modern race could ever be!
This Pony has a Rider! Beautiful to watch!
I tried to eat my lunch while watching this... needless to say it got cold by the time the video finished. that was good fun to watch!!
When you bring a massively overpowered car to a race in Gran Turismo.
And people say Muscle Cars can't corner... I know technically it's a pony car, but you got the point.
Amazing the music of this V8 getting almost 8k rpm...
Amazing what happens when you properly setup a suspension

5:58 No, you do not have another gear.
Such an Impressive drive! Looks like an absolute ball to wheel. Thanks for sharing
I see your Ferrari and raise you a pair of Mustang taillights.
Enzo, who?
Great driving and impressive sound from that motor!! More of this thanks.
We don’t need no stinkin paddle shifters.
What a show,just keeps getting better and better.
Loved watching that 350 tear it up.
What an engine... a clear power advantage over most other cars.
well ya , Ford . hear the drive shaft harmonizing ?
Outstanding driving through all the whaletails and Euro beasts.
Balls.....of.....steel!
"All the jag ( and Porsche's) could see were my six tail lights". AWESOME!!
I love it! Great driving.
WOW!!!! This driver is amazing as is the car! What a winning combination.
Best video i've seen in a long time. Superb 👌
This is my favourite video on the internet. Ever.
Check out Bill Shepherd Cobra youtube video.
This is what dreams are made of.
Awesome STANG!
Awesome DRIVER!
THIS VIDEO WAS AMZAZING, GREAT DRIVING AND ONE REALLY NICE FAST CAR, GREAT JOB!!!
Wow! What a wicked car! Love it!
Very skilled driving
Thanks for acting on my request for this video. What an engine!
Now that is a nice Lamborghini Ferrari =)
I went to Watkins Glenn back in 11 or 12 during SAAC and the Vintage race car clubs track day and watched 289 cars go full song and realizing some things :-)
just amazing Mustang!!! im in love!!!
What a BEAST!!!
dam that thing pulls hard
thats Windsor power right there!
Porsche drivers go home crying
Awesome mustang dusting all those 911's and the Ferrari!
What a job it is to drive that thing. One heck of a driver. Bet the guys in those Porsches had a much more relaxed race.
Amazing!!!
there goes that old bloody push rod thing again lol
Ford knew what they were doing in the early 60's since then the parts for these engines, and the equipment in general has become quantum leaps better the tires especially. I think I've seen this car before if it's real Shelby then I have!
As a Mopar guy who does appreciate Stangs, I doubt like 'ell there are very many vintage or even original parts of any sort in that buggy LOL
I mean those other drivers not really racing cuz it sure seemed like. Passed everyone like its just another day.
Awesome build on the engine and great driving as well.
Did he forget to participate in the qualifying session? I'm confused why he started so far back.
lol, great comment!!
Maybe he missed qualifying due to mechanical problems, however in short track stockcar racing back in the day at weekly shows fast cars those with most points would start in the back and therefore have to work their way through the field. Made for a better show.
I love it when he Passed All them Porsches. This thing is a Beast. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
braking technique with the left foot (while accelerating fully) ..... it is not for really braking, it is used to transfer the weight towards the front axle, in order to load the tires with adhesion prior to a change of direction of the car.
That was very satisfying to see that old school muscle outrun the pack
Great flexibility in that engine ..low end grunt and good rpm..only a 4 speed boys..
I'd love to get out there n practice like that with a bunch of cars, pretty bad ass, man. Plus, a mustang makes it even better! The race itself, they aren't gonna let you by so easy, plus they wont let up either lol. Still would be a blast regardless.

perfect
full power !!!
This makes my sim racing ass feel like such a psy. That looks crazy!
um dia quero ser piloto de corrida, paixão, velocidade e glória.
Passed everything in sight....even a modern Ferrari !! lol
Spankin Porsches.
One bad ass Mustang ,great driver .
That Mustang could use a fifth gear going through the long banking and the straights.
This has to be a NASCAR engine.
Lots of engine in that Mustang. I may be wrong but I don't think engines of that era shifted at over 7500RPMs. Some one commented it blowed up after this. No matter what, a fun ride.
Biggest difference is expected engine life. A motor used to have to last them a season, or partial. These have shorter lives and more HP
Awesome, he makes that look easy, and I know it's not.
That Mustang flyes!!!
Clearly the Shelby ate everyone's lunch! Is it me or was the Shelby loose coming out of the turns and having to slow (comparatively speaking) going into the turns.

i like he hold the steering same as me :P
OMG, I want to see the whole race. Is there a link for that?
Fun ,high reving small block ford

Talk about going to the front 🥀
Was a dog box used?
+Afrothunderkat Most likely a Jerico (based on a Ford Toploader) since he is upshifting without a clutch (straight cut gears).....

+SmokinStangs Thanks for watching. Small block ford 289 stroked to a 340, cast iron heads. Real deal.
What kind of power are you making? It looks like you're revving it to 7300RPM. That's crazy for a 289
cabudge09 no wonder he blew the engine up
That's a fast Mustang.
This video feels incomplete for some reaso-
...
Oh, I've just realized that my Daytona USA soundtrack is off. XD
What are the general engine specs of this beast?!
7500rpm! !!!
Foda demais, FlatOut é nois!
Go high and stay in it....

That thing is for sure not running on leafsprings.

since when porsche gt4 cup is a classic car? :D
+Tadas HSR has an open group for our regular members to drive in so they can participate.
+Tadas Also a Lotus 2 Eleven
The horsepower mismatch is comical.
Ok what we have here a car with double power than the others ok nice

Easy when you got a way faster car.
Нормально так
sounds like 9000rpms!
