In a riveting interview with Mark Rushbrook, Vehicle Virgins dives into the adrenaline-pumping world of the new Mustang GTD. Born from the fiery depths of the GT3 race car, this street beast is a true road warrior, tracing its lineage back to the Mustang Darkhorse. Rushbrook unveils the GTD's heart - a tweaked GT500 engine with dry sump and enhanced power, promising an exhilarating ride like no other. The interior is a blend of Mustang familiarity and high-tech luxury, featuring carbon fiber accents and 3D printed titanium shift paddles for that extra touch of class.
Under the hood, the GTD packs a punch with its eight-speed transaxle transmission, a departure from the traditional setup for a thrilling driving experience. The inboard suspension system, visible through a rear window, showcases the engineering marvel that lies beneath the surface. And let's not forget about that jaw-dropping GT3-style wing at the rear - not just for show, it comes equipped with DRS for that perfect balance of downforce and drag reduction. Ford's commitment to dominating the track is evident, with plans to conquer the Nurburgring in record time with the GTD.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. Vehicle Virgins also delves into the world of high-end hybrid supercars, with a special focus on the infamous P1 project. The team discusses the challenges faced by owners of these beasts, including battery issues plaguing models like the LaFerrari and 918 Spyder. With insights into the inner workings of these technological marvels, the conversation sheds light on the complexities of maintaining and upgrading these iconic machines. So buckle up, gearheads, because Vehicle Virgins is taking you on a wild ride through the fast-paced world of automotive innovation and performance.
