I know a lot of it is tongue in cheek but these guys irritate me.
Notice the Dyno test where they determine the GT 500 is only about 450hp without distiguishing between hp at the crant and wheels.
Anyway it does have good clips of the Stig really driving the car HARD around the track.

I saw that. They blasted it for it's lack of handling. Gordon (I think that's his name) also mentioned that the Roush was faster on their track by 2 sec.

This video has been out a while, there is acutally more to the show then just this clip. It is a British show and European performance is more focused on handling rather then straight line speed and acceleration. The best way to put it, Americans love horsepower and torque numbers and Europeans love skid pads and G numbers. Overall the Roush and the GT 500 are great mustangs, the Roush is just more of an all rounder as opposed to the Shelby. I think the point of the show was don't bring a Roush to the drag strip if there is a Shebly, and don't bring a Shelby to the road course if a Roush is there.
