The driver eventually gave up and called for help. Fortunately, Matt’s Off Road Recovery off-road rescue team was dealing with another trapped vehicle nearby, so they were able to come and help the Shelby Mustang GT-H out of trouble.

Although the rescue vehicle was equipped with sufficient rescue equipment, the front bumper of the Shelby Mustang GT-H did not have a tow hook, so rescuers installed ropes on the front suspension .

Hopefully the damage to the Shelby Mustang GT-H’s undercarriage isn’t too severe, but Hertz certainly needs a thorough inspection and cleaning of the Mustang before handing it over to its next customer.

It only takes 4.5 seconds to accelerate from a standstill to 100 kilometers per hour, and the acceleration time of 1/4 mile is 0.4 hours. 13 seconds.
