When talking about the new Ford GT, certain aficionados don't see why owners would pay half a million dollars for a machine that's not the quickest in its class, whether we're talking about straight-line grunt or lap times. Well, since the second generation of the GT is more of a racecar with number plates than anything else, it's all about the mesmerizing driving experience.
Heck, you don't even have to take our word for it. You see, we've brought along a piece of footage that delivers a sample of the 647 horsepower machine's might.
The clip, which awaits you at the bottom of the page, involves drifting, which has basically gone mainstream these days. The video was captured from inside the rear-wheel-drive animal and shows just how facile it is to slide the hell out of the thing.
We can see the FGT being driven on a mountain road, with the rain sensor being slightly triggered. And the driver drifts the thing in second gear using just one hand.
The man makes it look like it's nothing and, regardless of the fact that he has experience in the field (more on this below), the chassis brilliance of the Blue Oval halo car is obvious.
As for the element linking the steering wheel to the pedals, we're talking about an aficionado nicknamed powerslide lover. We've shown you his adventures in the past, with the car lover insisting on staying true to his nickname.
Note that we are in no way condoning such activities and we're asking you to keep the hooning for the track.
Returning to the drag racing point we made in the intro, we'll remind you that we recently showed you a sprinting battle between the new Ford GT and the McLaren 720S. You know, the Woking animal that has earned itself the nickanme of the supercar that has yet to lose a drag race.
