Dark Horse Mustang's crazy lap on the Nurburgring today - driven by Misha Charoudin

Even Misha was super suprised that his Dark Horse was insane fast on the ring today.

I never have seen a Dark Horse destroy the track like he did in thos video.

Craaaaaaazyyyyyy!!!

You rarely see a car take the Carousel at more than 85 - 87 kmh, he hit 95. That's phenominal for a road car.
I liked the comment, "why spend 300k on a GTD?"

Exactly. With a few mods, maybe 20k on top without the supercharger, you can make a perfect track car. He did say he is going to add more power mods on the car. I wonder if he is going to supercharge it in the future.

He's planning to add the Whipple.

They both seemed really impressed, and they both commented that it felt like they had more speed left in a lot of the track, like comfortable room to go faster.

I liked his comment toward the end, "My American viewers are going to love this video . . ."


One thing, though, is that the oil was over temperature. I don't think this was a handling package car. Does the standard Dark Horse have an oil cooler?

Also, what is the difference for the European spec car that results in lower horsepower? What was Ford required to do that choked it off?

Well, if the GT performance pack has an oil cooler, the Dark Has will have one too.
The European Mustangs have an OPF.

Start at 5:53.

Well, I guess we are going to find out soon enough about Whipples and tracking and heat . . .

Especially since the oil was already overheated in the video today.

He mentioned making it a full on time attack car, I'm guessing he wants more Mustang in the Mustang.

Another surprising thing, how tall is 6th on those Tremec's? It was dropping around 3000 rpm shifting into 6th. I'm betting he's going to get a closer ratio gear set, or different box for serious racing.

I just wish someone from Ford would step in and get that weird leaking door seal fixed, it's been like that since he got this car.

So what was the lap time?

So what was the lap time?

He didn't do a laptime. As you can see he was with other traffic.
