Video: 2011 Shelby GT500, now with better sound!

A few days back we had a video featuring a 2011 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 making the rounds at Virginia International Raceway, besting the '10 model's time by 9 seconds. While the video was nice, the sound wasn't the greatest. To correct this travesty, this new video has enough good noise to make up for the first.

We already know that the 2011 Mustang V6 and GT handily beat down the previous models in pretty much every performance test, so it should come as no surprise that the new GT500 is poised to do the same thing. This video, released by Ford, shows just that.

Shot at Virginia International Speedway, the video shows a 2011 GT500 being put through its paces and obliterating the previous GT500's total time by 9 seconds to the tune of 2:58.5.
