In a clash of American muscle titans, Carwow's Rory pits his Dodge Viper, Shelby Cobra CSX, and Ford Mustang against each other in a high-stakes drag race. All three beasts boast an impressive 460 horsepower under the hood, promising a showdown of epic proportions. The modernized Cobra, a Clive Sutton creation priced at $1 5,000, brings a contemporary twist to the classic model, while the £55,000 Mustang and £78,000 Viper stand as formidable opponents in their own right.
With the Cobra's sleek design hiding a modern chassis and Mustang engine, the stage is set for a thrilling race. As the Viper's V10 engine, co-developed with Lamborghini, roars to life, the competitors prepare to unleash their power on the tarmac. In a flurry of screeching tires and roaring engines, the cars hurtle down the track, each vying for supremacy in this ultimate test of speed and performance.
In a surprising twist, the Cobra emerges victorious, leaving the Viper and Mustang in its dust as it crosses the finish line. The race not only showcases the raw power of these American icons but also highlights the skill and precision required to handle such high-performance machines. As Rory extends his gratitude to fellow racer Adam C and Clive Sutton for their contributions, he hints at more adrenaline-fueled American car races to come, promising fans an exhilarating ride in the world of muscle car showdowns.
