American tuning company Hennessey Performance Engineering specializes in making cars go faster. They offer a variety of performance packages that pushes your car to the next level. This time around though they’ll be showing us a head-to-head battle between two American juggernauts: a 2019 Corvette ZR1 and a 2020 Shelby GT500. These two cars were sent to Hennessey so they can both be fitted with their 1000 HP performance package. But before they put on the mods, they decided to pit these two against each other in a drag race to see which is faster.
The 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is equipped with a supercharged 6.2L V8 LT5 producing a whopping 755 horsepower. The 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, on the other hand, comes with a supercharged 5.2L V8 pumping out 760 horsepower. It’s worth noting though that the Corvette is lighter than the GT500, so it’ll be interesting to see how that translates during the actual race.
We don’t want to spoil you the results, so we recommend that you watch the video to see who’s the winner!
