Ford Mustang Splits in Half While Street Racing

The modern Ford Mustang has a nice reputation when it comes to handling and traction.

Older Mustangs weren’t any good either as this video illustrates. The video features an older Fox Body Mustang losing control while street racing.

The video also demonstrates the structural strength of the car as it ends up splitting in half.
