I must to agree, sound is really nice, im looking on Lamborghini miura and thats my dream car but from videos it sounds like some old golf Xd expecialy cold start, i guess its sound way better in real life but in videos i seen definitely not like a super car
My ultimate dream car. 1969 MK1. Full blown goosebumps. BTW I dont care what the gearing is....450HP with a curbweight of 2400 Pounds. 0-60 is in the 3 second range.
The Ford GT40 was born and based from the British Lola GT Mk6, so let's not forget that Petrol Heads, then Carroll Shelby worked his Magic. From the Little Acorn the Mighty Oak Tree Grows! The term Legend is way over used today for people who simply don't deserve that title, absolutely not the case for Carroll Shelby, RIP
Hi Seb, this and Cobra video has been GREAT !! 👍 My Top 5 Classic's are: 1) Ferrari Daytona spider 2) Lamborghini Miura SV 3) De Tomaso Mangusta 4) Ford GT40 mk1 5) Ac Cobra 427 Btw, 1976 "The Gumball Rally" is The Best car movie ever made! 😎👌
I have to have one of these in my life... I just have to have one. I'll set mine up to be used more, with more modern components, because I'll actually use it all the time. Well maybe not ALL the time, but as often as I use my motorcycles. This is actually more practical, and safer, when you think about it.
450bhp from a 4.9l (302ci) Ford V8.....I think not. Sorry to sound negative, I love the car, so much so I actually have one....but lets have it right chaps!
So you have one? What are the specs then. Somehow you know why a Westlake 302 magically doesnt make that much power anymore, even though it has since the 60's. I get the feeling you're lying.
My name is Caroll Shelby and I spent my 88 year long life claiming other peoples work as my own and never built my own car. What an American car hero. Never actually BUILT anything.
What's the red light flashing at idle ? Is she low on oil pressure? Sounds like solid lifters. Hopefully it isn't low on oil or having a pressure problem. 😬
Seb take a road trip to Croatia coastline this June, enjoy the beautiful Adriatic sea and Test drive the Fastest 1/4 mile Hypercar, the New RIMAC(c2)😏 Greetings from Dubrovnik! 👋😎 #Dubrovnik #KingsLanding #GOT #StarWars #Gumball3000 2019 😉👍
Sorry to correct history, but, holman/moody was the difference in the car's success. Maybe create a vlog to tell the real story from a guy who was there, Lee Holman. Ford brought in Holman/Moody (nascar fame and partnered) when it was apparent Shelby wasn't up to expectations. Shelby had no idea what a racing pit crew did. H/M built the cars, modified the cars, had a stable of drivers and pit crew. What they didn't have was Shelby's marketing program, which Ford later bought ... and is still pushing today. As Lee Holman says, Ford was paying $14 mil annually to H/M to race the GT 40 in the sixties. Shelby's expenses came from H/M.
I was honored to speak to Lee Holman at our team Shelby meet last month. He shared with our group the GT 40 days with us. Holman - Moody and Shelby had sort of a friendly competition. In fact at the end of each race Lee said the teams would take each others cars back to their shop and shared the development. he showed a photo during his presentation of him fueling a car at LeMans . He said he got that job because he was the only person on the crew that didn’t smoke lol.
The camera is a bit too high. I guess this is what Dan Gurney would have seen. :) By the way the Daytona Coupe "Engineer" was Pete Brock. Ironically he was a Stanford drop-out and held no engineering degree.
Since the class limit for displacement was 5L why not have a 4.020inch/102.1mm bore with the 3.000inch/76.2mm stroke for 304.5 cubic inches/4992cc(instead of a 4.000inch/101.6mm bore for 301.5cu.in./4942cc) ?
Honestly that's something I've wondered as well. My best guess is that they didn't want to mess with an already tried and proven engine. Ford went back to the MKI since it was a 289 car and just made the engine stroke longer (oversimplification, but not wrong). I'm guessing the mentality was that it's not broken so don't fix it. Doing this also allows the usage / adaptation of some 289 parts (which were extremely accessable and mass produced)
Un clásico de los clásicos de la Ford gp40 que derrotó a a Ferrari y si no me equivoco Karol Shelby se la comieron iPhone le dio un palo aferrar y uno solo da un un montón porque si eso será un carro de carrera❤ y un clásico entre los clásicos😅😮
That noise? That’s American muscle. It’s unrefined. Unsophisticated. Unapologetic. And unrelenting. It’s what we call “balls to the wall. There’s nothing else like it in the world.
Shelby NEVER produced this car at all, he should have an idea about what he's talking about A continuation does not mean its been approved by Shelby either, it means it been built under licence And thats not a wide body
But wait a minute .....I own a big American Automobile Company but my competitors keep beating me at racing ......so I bought the designs for a racing car in England .... I hired the original designers and a technical manager to build them all in their own factory in the UK ....then hired another external contractor to improve iengine performance and reliability.....then i renamed it as my own companies car.....and called it the FRAUD (FORD) GT40
Woah! It’s been a while, how are you Seb? Time to rewatch some of your videos.. haven’t watched you since the lotus days!! How have things been? What’s changed?
British chassis with a small mustang engine: "OH MAI GAWSH! THAT SOUND! THIS IS MENTAL!" Ford mustang with exact same engine: "Americans have garbage taste in cars. So wasteful. Unnecessary on all levels. Does it really need to be that loud?" 🤷♂
You don’t understand. Most of our roads are as smooth as your best race tracks and you can fit 2 of those cars in 1 lane. That is not a car of excess. But a no nonsense, world class race WINNER from the mid 1960s. A raw fighter jet for the road! Remember these cars were never seen or driven by regular Americans. They were built and sold to the elite wealthy car collectors around the world.
Horrific camera angles just wasted this video! This is not a horror movie! You need to reset your aspect ratio on your camera. The wide angle is horrific.!
