It’s apples and oranges this evening as a Whipple supercharged Mustang GT takes on a modified Yamaha R1 street bike. It takes a powerful car to tackle a performance motorcycle – such as the R1. Let’s see if this Ford has what it takes to win on the streets (of Mexico). The Ford Mustang GT has been upgraded with a 2.9-liter Whipple supercharger. It has a 5.0-liter V8 engine and a manual transmission. In factory shape, the Mustang GT could produce 460hp. With the current modifications, it’s likely making double that. Question is: Can it catch this dragonfly? Featuring a Read More

Permit me to introduce what is being billed as the World’s Fastest Dodge Charger. I must begin by saying that is not a Hellcat. Instead, we have a larger engine with an aftermarket blower and it’s making plenty of horsepower. Have a look. This is no widebody. It’s a base model Charger. The engine is a billet 7.0-liter (426 cid) HEMI with a Drag Pack blower (custom built and ported by Dustin Whipple). There is also a kit of nitrous (not in use today). The transmission is a TH400 automatic by Proformance. The rear end is also a billet unit. Read More

Greetings drag racing enthusiasts and horsepower aficionados from every corner of the globe. Allow me to introduce Andrew (Mustang Lifestyle) and El Choppo; his radically modified 2014 Ford Mustang GT500. El Choppo has recently been upgraded with a MoTec controller in an effort to calm his rambunctious demeanor. This video has a two-fold purpose. First, it will document El Choppo’s initial full power test passes with the MoTec. Second, it will provide before and after looks focusing on traction control issues. If you have a car that makes insane power and can’t get traction, pay close attention. Jay Meagher from Read More

The modern-day dyno room could be considered the research and development laboratory for horsepower and speed. This is where most basic tuning and refinement begins to take shape as it pertains to high-level aftermarket performance hardware and controllers. Palm Beach Dyno is on the cutting edge in forced air induction technology (superchargers and turbochargers). Today, they are going to prove it. On the dyno is Terry Day’s 2019 Ford Mustang GT. The stock 2019 Mustang GT is equipped with a 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine that can make 460hp and 420 lb.-ft. of torque. At Terry Day Racing, this just Read More

Looking for all the world like a miniature Shelby Cobra, this pint-sized powerhouse tore up the track at Lucas Oil Raceway Friday night. Running in the Monster Stick Shift Class, this little monster was everything the competition could handle – and more! Check it out. Anyone who has ever been around a Mazda Miata will remember that it is tiny. What you may not know is that a Miata is a rear-wheel drive vehicle. That makes this an ideal candidate for a high-performance retrofit. This Miata has been upgraded with a naturally aspirated small block Ford mill and a 9-inch Read More

The SpeedKore Dodge SRT Demon is – in a word – spectacular. Specializing in high-dollar, lightweight carbon-fiber replacement bodies, SpeedKore builds some of the most innovative race cars on the street and track. Factory Demon output is pretty outstanding but the SpeedKore version bumps up the volume. The OEM supercharger has been removed and a Whipple unit takes its place. Larger throttle bodies and a custom cold air intake permit more air to enter the intake and bigger fuel injectors deliver an upgrade in go-go juice. The open exhaust offers no restriction to the soothing sounds of this demonic power Read More

Whoa! Better than a Bugatti? There are very few cars that make that claim but that’s the scoop on this Galpin Auto Sports (GAS) modified Ford Mustang GT500. At a sticker price that is less than a quarter of the Veyron, this pony car might just be worth a second look. The process begins with a capable enough car in the GT500, it then gets a custom set of wheels and tires that are fitted to a one-of-a-kind aerodynamic wide body kit that is fabricated using all steel construction. The sheet metal work alone may take up four-months to complete. Read More
