2005 Ford GT & MSW GT-40 Replica Accelerating on the Airstrip: 5.4 Modular V8 vs Roush 427 IR Sound!

Here's a brief video about a splendid black 2005 Ford GT and an interesting modern reinterpretation of the GT40 done by the guys of MSW Aviation doing some accelerations on the Engadin Airport runway in Switzerland during the 2023 Kilomètre Lancé.
The Ford GT is powered by its stock 5.4-liter Modular V8 engine linked to an Eaton 2300 Lysholm supercharger. It's able to produce around 550 hp at 6,500 rpm. It has a curb weight of 1,581kg.
The MSW GT-40 is an interesting project built around a lightweight carbon monocoque. It should be powered by a modified Roush 427 IR crate V8 engine that should be able to produce around 600 hp. The car weighs around 900kg.
The Kilomètre Lancé is a revival event of the original competition held in 1929 and 1930 as the starting event of the International St. Moritz Automobile Week. This week consisted of a rally, the kilometer race, a skill race, a concours d'elegance and the Bernina hillclimb race. For the second one, the dead-straight section of road between Samedan and Punt Muragl was the first asphalted road in Engadin and the venue for this spectacular race, in which the only thing that mattered was the maximum speed that could be achieved.
Of course nowdays these kind of sprint competitions are no longer held on public roads. The kilometer race, called by the organizers "Kilomètre Lancé", has been exhumed since 2021 as part of the modern International St. Moritz Automobile Week and it's held on the runway of Engadin Airport, in Switzerland, specially closed for this purpose. However Engadin Airport isn't only within sight of the historic venue, it also has a suitable track with its 1.8 km runway.

The red GT40 is faster acceleration in mile, and he looks like a beautiful track car! Black Ford GT looks like a greater original design and iconic for era! ❤❤❤

The 05/06 Ford GT is pure perfection in my opinion! A forever top 10 car in my mind! The MSW GT40 also looks great! Sounds amazing too!

Is the red Ford from Trinidad and Tobago? because it sure looks like our national flag.

427 cui = 7,0L That Roush is fast as hell. Easier to start with N/A engine, or/and the driver is better.
