Watch Old Ford Taurus Pass Porsche, BMW, Pace McLaren On Race Track

USA / Global By: Christopher Smith

Ah, the old Ford Taurus SHO. Most people have at least heard about it, but even 30-plus years after hitting the road, it still manages to surprise people. Imagine taking your McLaren 720S to an open track event in 2023, only to see the flat face of a white first-generation Taurus hanging out in your rearview mirror. At least it stayed in the rearview, which can't be said for other drivers featured in the video above.

The clip comes from Adam Hartlmeier, and in the spirit of transparency, he's not unknown to your humble author. Adam and his wife Michelle are major SHO enthusiasts, owning a legit fleet of first-generation models including two of the four Ninja Turtle SHO race cars that campaigned in the IMSA Firestone Firehawk series through the early 1990s. No, the car in this video isn't one of them – that's a story for a different time. For now, we're focused on a white 1990 SHO that is comfortably modified for fun at the race track.
