Default 80MPG 400HP 1987 Mustang Heading To SEMA

Doug Pelmear 400HP 80MPG Mustang X Prize Contestant

Now Doug Pelmear is getting ready for a trip to Las Vegas to not only be at SEMA but to really put the car on a grueling road test of 4,000+ miles round trip. Doug and his team will use this time to track the Mustang’s gas mileage.

The car even got a send off ceremony to start it’s journey with the Governor of Ohio making a statement regarding how Doug’s car could not only change the nation but the world as well. Check out the video below for the full story.

Wow... Finally a possibility for awesome gas mileage without sacrificing horsepower. I wonder what that Stang's got under the hood, lol.

I wonder what the catch is. Is it getting 100MPG of ethanol? I'm sure there's much more to the story.
