A couple of weeks ago we told you about the online competition launched by eBay Motors and the makers of the race game “GRID”. Well, the fastest of them all turned out to be 16-year old Timothy B. from Gretna Louisiana whose fastest lap time was 1:40:32. Timothy has plenty of reasons to be happy. To be exact, 445 horse-power related reasons as he won the grand prize that was none other than a real-life- version of the Ford Mustang GT-R that’s featured in the game.
The eBay liveried Ford Mustang GT-R has been heavily modified with a custom-made body kit, 20-inch GTR Concept alloy wheels, a race suspension, α race inspired side ported exhaust system and to top it all, a supercharged V8 engine with 445HP. Not a bad way to start your career as a driver. However, if we were his parents, just to be on the safe side as it’s one thing crashing your car on the laptop screen and another on a real life road barrier, we’d wait a few years before we’d allowed our 16-year old son to get his hands on a 445Hp beast. -More pics adter the jump
