Video: 2010 Shelby GT500 Super Snake vs. Nissan GT-R Drag Race

The video above pits the 2010 Shelby GT500 Super Snake with it’s 630 horsepower against Godzilla, the aptley named Nissan GT-R with all-wheel drive and 474 horsepower. After watching this video you realize two things, the folks who made the video Motor Trend obviously are homers for the Nissan GT-R and two, the Shelby GT500 Super Snake with it’s 630 horsepower should never lose this race no matter the circumstances. This video from such a trused name in the automotive world baffles me as they get it completely wrong. Maybe I am off base with my assumptions but somebody please back me up. Check out the video and give me your thoughts.
