Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V

The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V reaches 60 mph in 3.85 s (100 km/h in 3.98 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.83 s, tripping the lights at 124.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.95 s and the eighth mile in 7.78 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.34 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V

The 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V is a rear-drive turbocharged muscle car of 1,750 kg with 662 bhp, which works out at 379 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 379 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.95 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 923rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 8th quickest of the 789 Fords here. Its 124.8 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V 0-60 time?
The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V reaches 60 mph in 3.85 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 923rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V quarter mile time?
11.83 s at 124.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.78 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.95 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V have?
662 bhp and 1,750 kg, which is 379 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 324 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V?
Closest here on pace: Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat (3.80 s), Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat (3.88 s), Dodge Charger SRT Widebody (3.65 s). Each one can be raced against the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Mk V is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
