Shelby GT350R Mustang. Aerodynamics.
To source the new lightweight track-capable carbon fiber wheels that are standard on the new Shelby GT350R Mustang, Ford partnered with Australia-based Carbon Revolution. Some formulations may have this characteristic, but carbon fiber’s durability is a feature of the type of resin and design intent of the part.
One of the issues with the Ford results, Nair suggested, is that the performance of the vehicles as designed lends themselves to more sprited driving. So when I drive that hybrid the way I drive my Shelby GT500, I typically lose about 12 mpg. Unfortunately, that’s not the way I usually drive. —Raj Nair.
