What Can I Expect

Meet the Mustang Shelby Fastback - and maybe the Jag E-Type too! You can choose to keep it all-American with a Mustang fastback drive, or go totally transatlantic with a drive in both the Stang and the Jag.

These cars look so different, yet the stats are actually pretty similar. The Mustang can post a 0-60mph time of around 7.0 seconds, whilst the Jag crosses the 60 barrier at 6.0 seconds. Underneath the bonnet it's quite a different ball game, with the Mustang carrying a hefty V8 engine and the Jag a relatively modest 3.8l four speed motor.

But you just have to take a look at the Mustang to see why it needs such a serious power plant. This is one bulky pony car, with those distinctive angular lines and fins going on that make it the epitome of American motor vehicles of the 60s, 70s and even beyond.

The Jaguar on the other hand is light, nimble, full of finesse and curvaceous with it. Although production on this car stopped in 1975, the E-Type is still much revered by motoring critics and enthusiasts alike. These Jags still win awards today, especially the older series 1 versions, the likes of which you might well get to drive if you choose to go head to head with the Fastback.

This meeting of the motoring greats will take place at the circuit of your choosing from a selection nationwide. You'll find these track days are bustling places with lots of cars in addition to the Mustang and E-type making appearances, so it's an ideal venue for serious car fans. And of course, friends and family are very welcome to come and watch.

And we have to say, the solo Mustang Fastback drive is cool, but the whole experience comes into its own when you opt for the Atlantic Challenge and get to drive both this big, brute of an American muscle car and the slick Jaguar.
