It Was Swimming and Still Won -- M2 Machines Mustang Shocks Hot Wheels | Peak Speed Lab 1:64

Cars #59 and #60: two Ford Mustang Boss 302s, two different brands. The Hot Wheels 1969 Boss 302 (Fast and Furious 6 Real Riders) against the M2 Machines 1970 Boss 302 (Auto-Drivers Ford line). A seventh brand enters Peak Speed Lab 1:64. The Hot Wheels Mustang won the very first warm-up lap. Then the M2 Machines Mustang took over and never looked back -- even while visibly swimming in its lane through the official runs. Final result: M2 Machines 1.9555s, Hot Wheels 2.0195s. A 0.064 second gap in favor of the less stable car. The data backs up what you saw on camera. The M2 Machines Mustang measured a CoG of 44.8 degrees -- a "High" rating, meaning a higher center of gravity and less stability. The Hot Wheels Mustang measured 61.8 degrees, the most stable CoG rating ever recorded in this lab. The M2 car should have been the wobbly one. It was. It still won by a wide margin, and with less than half the timing variance of the more stable Hot Wheels car. The M2 Machines construction is also unusual -- plastic chassis with rubber tires, a combination almost never seen in this lab. Nearly every rubber-tire car tested here uses a metal chassis. This one does not, and it still finished #8 in the Rubber Tire Top 10. Full unboxing, weight, Hub-to-Hub, CoG, 20 warm-up laps (as always the first lap videoed), 10 official laps per car.
