Video paints a different picture of hitting the drag strip

The next time you casually find yourself thinking about bringing your Mustang to the drag strip, you might want to consider a different view on the idea first.

While it certainly is a hell of a way to enjoy a Mustang Cobra with 730 horsepower and 800 lb-ft of torque, it does have a few drawbacks. Take, for example, losing control of the car with your girlfriend in the passenger seat, as documented in a That Racing Channel video posted below, which features a few GoPro cameras capturing the action.

Apparently, a tie rod snapped on the Mustang, but luckily, both the driver and passenger were able to walk away.
