Ford Mustang GT Drag Races Supercharged Chevrolet Tahoe RST, Gets Trampled

The full-size offering comes with a 6.2-liter V8, which has been taken to the gym by Hennessey Performance. As such, the high-riding beast now delivers a meaty 650 hp and 659 lb-ft of twist.

And, given the hefty scale footprint of the Chevy (the thing tips the scales at over 5,750 lbs), one might wonder if the extra muscle is enough to turn the SUV into a properly quick machine.

Well, since the 2018 Ford Mustang GT is a car that deserves the label above (here's a review of the animal), the Texan specialist decided to throw the two at each other and showcase the potential of the pumped-up Tahoe.

As such, the developer turned to the drag strip in its backyard and the result can be seen in the piece of footage at the bottom of the page: the two slabs of America engaged in a standing start drag race.

Now, as you'll probably notice in the video, the 460 horsepower Blue Oval toy is present here in six-speed manual trim. And while the ten-speed auto would've made the 'Stang quicker, the stick shift version of the Ford is still worthy of the job.

As for those of you wondering what the Chevrolet Tahoe RST upgrade is all about, you should know the list of goodies includes a 2.9-liter supercharger, an intercooler, a stainless steel catback exhaust and the obvious ECU play.

Oh, and there might be certain aficionados for whom such a transformation is still not sufficient. Well, the Lone Star State developer happens to offer a superior stage for the SUV, with this taking the game all the way to 800 ponies.
