MUSTANG JUST TOOK IT BACK! 🇺🇸🏁
The American horsepower war at the Green Hell just reached a whole new level! Ford has officially dropped the hammer with the Mustang GTD Competition, smashing its previous mark by over 11 seconds to set a mind-blowing 6:40.835 lap time at the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
With factory driver Dirk Müller at the wheel, the GTD Competition obliterated Chevrolet’s 1,250-hp hybrid Corvette ZR1X (6:49.275) by over 8 full seconds, officially making it the fastest non-hybrid and fastest street-legal production-based American car to ever lap the legendary track!
⚡ WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE?
Upgraded Supercharged 5.2L V8 pushing beyond 815 HP
Extreme Aero Package: Secondary front dive planes, rear carbon-fiber aero discs, and evolved active DRS
Track Weight Loss: Ultra-light magnesium wheels, carbon bucket seats, and lighter dynamic suspension
📊 THE BREAKDOWN:
🏎️ Ford Mustang GTD Competition: 6:40.835
🏎️ Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X: 6:49.275
Is the Mustang GTD now the undisputed king of American supercars, or will Chevy respond with an even wilder Corvette?
