You got an 840hp Dodge Challenger Demon? That's cute because what I have here, after fought my way through the Series 32 Horizon Spring Playlist, is the Shelby 1000, the monstrous muscle car we first encountered in the original Horizon several years ago. Having found its way back into the party, let's get to know more about this one now that you got your hands on it.
First appeared at the 2012 New York International Auto Show, the Shelby 1000 is revered as the most powerful Mustang ever made at the hands of the late Carroll Shelby and the experts at Shelby American. It was offered with two different versions such as the 920hp road-going version, seen here, and a 1,100hp track variant. Both of these variants featured hand-built 5.4L V8 engines with improvements courtesy of Shelby as well as chassis stiffening, improved clutch, improved braking, rear suspension upgrade, strengthened driveshaft, and other improvements.
With the quick intro done, it's time to take the Shelby 1000 to its paces with a super-long drag race on the highway against other muscle cars trying to stand out. Let's roll the tape.
Job well done. There's nothing else I can say.
Enjoy your new ride!
