The MISTAKES With My Mustang Dark Horse? 10,000 MILES ALREADY!

[@wentfastdidntdie]

I was paralyzed 3 years ago, and although traveling is still an option for me, ill probably never get to experience everywhere being limited you know, so some time's im truly thankful for Technology for being able to see the world through other's perspective in 4k.

[@JohnHyland2]

Hopefully technology will catch up to you and one day you will be able too. I have a spinal cord injury from being wounded in Iraq although it didn’t paralyze me I still take this to heart. I am also a left leg amputee from the same event and decided to buy a mustang GT a couple years ago in manual because of Tim’s videos. Had to get an extension on the clutch pedal but after that it worked out quite well. I think Tim should hook up with you and give you a ride!! How cool would that be!?

[@johnbrown-hm5rj]

Thanks for sharing your experiences gents.

[@ShiftingSplits]

I have that exact spec in a 1/38 scale. It would be awesome if Tim would sign it!!

I own a 24 gt premium, interesting to hear your thoughts on the platform. I get similar gas mileage, maybe a tad better (~1 mpg). I would 100% recommend the ford performance oil catch cans, especially since you're tracking it.

[@simongibbs3936]

My Lexus 5 litre naturally aspirated V8 is averaging 28mpg. To be fair that has been during the sensible period as it only has 600 miles on the clock. Sure it will drop as we can use the revs a bit more!

I love the respect and love you have for all your cars tim.

Hello. The reason the car is tram lining is because of the sport cup 2’s. I had the same issue with mine until I went with a different tire. Great video!

I was at Pikes Peak a couple days before you and Porsche was testing their new 992.2 GT3 cars. Glad you made it to Colorado come back anytime Shmee!!

[@Treesuss]

I tried to drive up Pikes Peak a couple years ago, when I lived in Colorado. We got there from Denver and they had closed it due to expected snow. So we spent the day at North Pole Colorado Santa’s Workshop at the base.

[@richtaylor2129]

Love the sound of a V8!!

[@joeryan7548]

Yes, I vote that you should wrap the car with a color that pops. I would wrap the grey area area around the headlights in the new body color or black. What about a iridescent color for the wrap. Or, the FFF collection has a McLaren 765LT has a dark blue fade to a light blue in the middle of the car. The Hennessy HPE850 performance package is a great idea.. It would make for great content , with all the Mustang fans around the world. If you did install a supercharger on the Dark Horse, I think Misha would be green with envy.

Hi. Next time you get plates, ask to see the stack they scan from. Pick one you like until you get a personalized plate.

[@HammerRocks]

Your issue with the small gap between the steering wheel and side bolster of the Recaro seat is easiy fix. SImpy slide the seat back each time you get out and slide it forward when you're seated. It's what I do when getting in and out of my Mazda MX-5.

[@ding020468]

Absolutely yes to the 850HP Hennessey upgrade. That would make for some really entertaining content, and something i would love to watch.

[@nanakwame3]

I actually drove pikes peak that same day. I saw that Ford gt and dark horse on my way up. It was very crowded!

[@StefanTugui]

Great to see you shmee , loving every videos that your uploading ! !

[@Stadpad]

Those two fords look great together 🥰

[@paulkrapp]

This was cool! I've never seen a leisurely drive up and down Pike's Peak before.

[@ItssKoby]

H850 package would be rad! Would love to see that upgrade on the dark horse!😮

[@transport740]

@shmee150 you need to add bracing underneath to fix that issue. Like a G Trac Brace

[@zactormak]

the exhaust sound on the dark horse is very nice

[@TheSuhas96]

Keep the NA V8 please. If you do go for the henessey package it would frankly in my opinion be very similar to the gt500 and lose its essence of being one of the last NA v8 front engined cars. Would love some new intakes or handling focused upgrades to bring it upto spec.

[@stevenstrassberg3776]

That was truly beautiful. Skiing ⛷️ in July?Awesome.

I like to hear about the mpg figures. I also am a MPG nut. Even tho I've got a c6 z06. Always interesting

[@standawson8414]

Drive Mt. Evans just west of Denver. It's slightly higher than Pike's Peak and generally less crowned.

[@LiqdPT]

11:07 it's weight and aerodynamics. But also it's a turbo 6 cylinder. When driving easy, there's no boost with a turbo and it's a smaller engine. The Mustang is a bigger 8 cylinder

[@davidramjee]

White isn’t typical shmee mobile, defo needs a splash of colour that matches the black. Maybe a wrap for the next time you’re out there

[@1980venom]

Yo Shmee150, thanks for the picture @ Supercar Madness Zolder Circuit! Very cool from you and I hope to see you again!

[@kavinskysmith4094]

yeah with pikes peak, I remember randy Probst saying that after a crash up there he always made a point to have an oxygen tank with him, as the height and the lack of oxygen screws up your thought process, and your ability to react properly, which is what caused his off in that skyline, as you just freeze up, and cant react properly. also another major thing was you had to change the points on your car back in the old days if it was carbed, as it wasnt just turbo cars that had trouble up there and even I remember Land rover was having trouble, modern land rover as they never rigged up or programed the computers to adjust the fuel to air mixture rate properly for that area as well given how low down and close to the sea england is, it was some news story I came across with the new 80K defender from a few years ago' the same one harry had that was a squeaks and rattle box for the same cost as a viper, like I couldnt believe that box of bolts, that piece of junk cost that much new and had that many problems also schmee, in 1965, that mustang would be getting 5 to 7 miles to the gallon with that power figure, be glad your getting 17, and its not supercharged as 440 cop cars used to need to fill up mid patrol, also supercharging actually changes the torque and fuel curve and helps the MPG weirdly enough, like theirs this guy in las vegas who supercharged a 440 and was getting that same figure out of it with 600 HP so that's not bad, and I bet a gallardo is getting the same really. also your ford gt would be better at start ups because theirs less rotational mass for the engine to get going with, based on it being a V6 and not a V8 supercar, and god please take that stupid V6 out and put the V8 in like they should have done from the factory, as theirs so much untapped potential in that chassis if they had just put in a V8 like its a good car, but damn if it aint wrong that it doesnt sound like the proper gt40

[@unicorn_rs]

Personnaly, I think you could do, with Hennessey and/or with Shelby some power upgrades, and if it's needing due to these, maybe some chassis upgrades, but above all, I think it could be great to highlight the '' stormtrooper spec'' of your mustang thanks to some details or references to Star Wars, without even completely cover the car and the white

[@derekteng]

I have the exact same problem like yours when entering my Porsche. Even with Easy access (where the seats move back) , I still scuff my steering wheel. You will notice the scratches especially when driving because you are touching the sttering wheel and I absolutely hated that. Im so careful when entering the car now and people wonder why XD

Sounds amazing for a 2024 car 🔥🔥

[@AudreyH48]

If it helps, I happen to be in that category of the license plate and also drive a Ford Mustang, but a 1969 version 💖

[@1smokan]

The way the mustang darts left to right is a cause of to much camber, have it aligned for the street and back again for the track.

[@HammerRocks]

So Tim, have you put down your name for the new Mustang GTD? Surely if you had, Ford should seriously consider you as one of the lucky few to be chosen, since you've given a lot of air time and keep iterating your love for the brand in your channel. Surely, you're a no-brainer for Ford if you had.

[@CoyoteAUS]

This needs more power. Supercharged but with excellent cooling mods would top it off.

[@gillesthibault429]

The GTD is not worth his effort! 350K for a Mustang : This Is Your Brain ON Drugs! He already owns a GT and a GT500. IMHO, he should not even keep the Dark Horse, especially in that fugly white! His next new American Car should be an ERay or a ZR1!

[@HammerRocks]

Hey@@gillesthibault429, guess what? Tim just announced he's getting the GTD. So, that means I, with my "Brain ON Drugs", called it correcty

[@gillesthibault429]

@HammerRocks It's still a pure waste of his money. In the last year or two, Tim's choices make me think that he's got more money than brains... Used to like him, now I'm wondering...

[@enricocurcio1610]

8:40 actually turbo cars do better at altitude than normally aspirated cars. They effectively make their own atmosphere. There's a reason turbos were used on airplanes.

[@V1N_574]

Hi Shmee, you should consider getting a Shelby super snake, it looks insane and would love to see your spec discussion with Shelby to make it unique.

[@keithneal3253]

Ref your drivers seat and steering wheel closeness issue. Fords I have driven (F150, Expedition) have a convenience setting whereby the seat moves back away from the steering wheel automatically before you get in/ out of the vehicle. Have you tried checking this option in the menu? Just a thought.

@Shmee150 The seat issue is easy to solve if you don’t mind moving your seat every time you get in and out like I do. Move the seat all the bay back using the under front release, get in and push forward again. Been doing it for years now no issues at all. 😉😉
