The upcoming week on The Young and the Restless promises heartbreak, mystery, and emotional chaos as the Newmans and Abbotts find their lives colliding in a storm of tragedy and revelation. From a devastating car crash in Los Angeles to resurfacing secrets that could destroy relationships, Genoa City is bracing for one of its most explosive weeks of 2025.
1. Noah Newman’s Tragedy and the Crash Investigation
A mother’s worst fear becomes reality when Sharon Rosales senses that something is terribly wrong with her son Noah Newman. After losing contact with him in Los Angeles, Sharon follows her instincts and flies out to find him — but her world shatters when she receives a frantic call from the LAPD. Noah has been involved in a horrific car accident, leaving him in critical condition.
Back in Genoa City, Nick Newman is crushed when Sharon calls in tears, begging him to come immediately. Wracked with guilt for prioritizing business over family, Nick books the next flight to Los Angeles, desperate to reach his son before it’s too late.
At the hospital, detectives quickly determine that Noah’s crash may not have been an accident. The introduction of Detective Burrow (played by General Hospital alum Matt Cohen, making his debut) adds new layers of intrigue as he reveals evidence suggesting Noah was “forced off the road.”
Sharon and Nick’s anxiety deepens when they encounter a mysterious man lurking outside the hospital — the same stranger Sharon remembers glimpsing at the crash site. Meanwhile, Noah’s ex-girlfriend Tessa Porter refuses to sit on the sidelines. Obsessed with uncovering the truth, she begins tracing Noah’s online messages and finds a cryptic exchange with the initials “HN,” leading her to suspect that Holden Novak may somehow be connected to the tragedy.
2. Holden Novak’s Past Collides With the Present
Across town, Holden Novak’s carefully crafted image begins to crumble. He whisks Clare Grace Newman away to Los Angeles under the guise of a romantic getaway, promising her a fresh start away from Genoa City’s judgmental eyes. But the trip quickly takes a sinister turn.
At an exclusive LA nightclub, Holden’s past resurfaces in the form of Sienna Beall, portrayed by soap veteran Tamara Braun in her long-awaited Y&R debut. Sienna and Holden share what she chillingly refers to as a “tangled, scandalous past,” and she wastes no time confronting him in front of Clare.
Sienna’s sly comments and piercing glances hint at far more than old memories — she accuses Holden of being involved in fraud, stolen art, and money laundering, crimes he allegedly committed under another name. As Clare listens in disbelief, the man she thought she loved begins to unravel before her eyes.
When Sienna mentions Audra Charles and cryptically tells Clare that she “knew who Holden really was,” the emotional damage is done. The revelation drives a wedge between Holden and Clare, leaving their future — and Holden’s freedom — hanging by a thread.
3. Emotional Crossroads in Genoa City
Back home, Kyle Abbott refuses to accept Clare’s disappearance. Convinced she’s in danger, he enlists Victoria Newman’s help in locating her LA hotel. Victoria hesitates, torn between protecting her daughter’s privacy and Kyle’s plea. The emotional confrontation reignites her chemistry with Nate Hastings, and the two find themselves revisiting feelings they thought they’d buried.
Meanwhile, Jill Abbott returns to Genoa City for what appears to be a farewell of sorts. Preparing to travel to London for medical treatment, Jill expresses her growing concern that Billy Abbott isn’t ready to assume greater responsibility within Chancellor-Winters. In an emotional exchange with Jack Abbott, Jill makes a pivotal decision — one that could reshape the power dynamics of the Abbott family forever.
A Week of High Stakes and Shattered Secrets
As The Young and the Restless heads into one of its most emotionally charged weeks of the year, three families stand on the brink of collapse.
The Newmans face a fight for survival — both literally and figuratively — as Noah’s accident exposes a dangerous criminal conspiracy. The Abbotts grapple with leadership and legacy. And Holden Novak’s web of lies threatens to drag Clare, Audra, and even the Newmans into his dark past.
With shocking revelations, emotional reunions, and long-awaited confrontations, the week of October 13–17 promises to be “one of the most heart-stopping and unforgettable chapters in Y&R history.”
Will Noah survive long enough to reveal the truth?
10 Fastest Ford Cars In Company History
101987 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth
Top Speed: 150 MPH
The Sierra RS500 was a homologation special to satisfy regulations and be eligible to compete in Group A racing. With the cancelation of the Group B class, Group A was set in place with tighter regulations and power outputs that were more manageable on racetracks and rally stages. Unlike its Group B predecessor, the RS200, the RS500 was most known for its dominance on the circuit rather than rally stages.
Specifications
| Engine | Turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter, DOHC 16-valve, inline-four |
| Power | 201 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm |
| Torque | 204-pound feet @ 4,500 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 5-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 5.4 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 14.2 seconds @ 98 MPH |
| Top speed | 150 MPH |
The RS500 is powered by the YB engine that was developed by Cosworth who introduced a sixteen-valve cylinder head and turbocharging to better motivate the Sierra. As evidence of its racing intents, the later RS500s were sold with an unplugged second set of injectors that allowed for the bigger boost that, unlocked more power when wired to function. In turn, it allowed the racing versions to make close to 500 horsepower and exceed 150 MPH.
91971 Ford Transit Supervan 1
Top Speed: 150 MPH
If 600-horsepower SUVs are insane, the first Ford Transit Supervan trumps them by a wide margin. Although Ford never sold Supervans to just anyone who’d walk into a dealership and fork over the money, the idea of a 400-horsepower van brought enough attention to the brand that it managed to get people through the dealership doors anyway.
Specifications
| Engine | 5.0-liter, pushrod OHV 16-valve, naturally aspirated V-8 |
| Power | 435 horsepower |
| Torque | Not available |
| Drivetrain | 4-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 7.0 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 14.5 seconds |
| Top speed | 150 MPH |
For a publicity stunt, the Supervan was quite an elaborate build. Starting with a retired GT40 chassis, a 5.0-liter V-8 was positioned centrally where passengers or cargo would be and used much of the other components from the famed Le Mans race car. While drag racing wasn’t its main purpose, it could manage a 14.5-second quarter-mile time and was capable of speeds faster than 150 MPH, but was the bravest anyone could manage.

10 Fun Facts About The Ford GT40 That You Didn’t Know
The Ford GT40 is a car with an amazing story behind it and here are some little known facts about the GT40 that might surprise you.

81987 Ford RS200 Evolution
Top Speed: 150 MPH
The RS200 isn’t the most popular Ford-built rally car, that honor goes to the Escort; the Mk1 from 1967, and the Mk2 from 1974. But with a short wheelbase, four-wheel drive, and close to 500 horsepower, the RS200 has to be the ultimate Ford rally car. Especially designed and built to compete in the highly competitive and notoriously dangerous Group B class of rallying.
Specifications
| Engine | Turbocharged and intercooled 1.8-liter, DOHC 16-valve, inline-four |
| Power | 247 horsepower @ 6,50 rpm |
| Torque | 215-pound feet @ 4,500 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 5-speed manual; four-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 4.7 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 13.8 seconds |
| Top speed | 150 MPH |
As part of Group B homologation regulations, Ford had to build and sell two hundred units of the purpose-built rally rocket to be eligible to compete. So the RS200 is not only fast, but also rare as it gets. In road specification, with a full interior, the RS200 made significantly less than in rally trim but still manages a 4.7-second 0-60 mph sprint and tops out at 150-MPH. Which leads one to ask, how much faster is it when fully uncorked?
72000 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R
Top Speed: 175 MPH
While the 2000 SVT Cobra R wasn’t the first one to carry the name, it was the first Mustang that was single-mindedly aimed at performance and speed. It was sold with a functional aero package wider wheels and sticky tires being the most visible changes from the regular Mustang, but its performance focus goes even deeper.
Specifications
| Engine | 5.4-liter, DOHC 32-valve, naturally aspirated V-8 |
| Power | 385 horsepower @ 6,250 rpm |
| Torque | 385 pound-feet @ 4,250 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 6-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 4.4 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 12.8 seconds @ 110 MPH |
| Top speed | 175 MPH |
The Cobra R is powered by a heavily reworked 4.6-liter V-8 from the regular Mustang and when SVT was finished, displaced 5.4-liters and made 385 horsepower. To maximize the power, SVT also worked on the Cobra R’s suspension, slipping in Bilstein shocks, stiffer springs, thicker sway bars, lighter control arms, and even Brembo brakes to improve its stopping power. The changes sum up to a 175-MPH top speed, but whether in a straight line or around corners, the Mustang SVT Cobra R is a genuinely fast Ford.

62019 Ford Mustang GT500
Top Speed: 180 MPH
The “GT500” brand has been held in high regard since Caroll Shelby attached it to the Mustang name back in 1967. Known as the biggest and baddest Mustang available next to the Super Snake Package that Shelby Cars offers, the GT500 Mustang is the peak of what Ford technology can produce in its road cars.
Specifications
| Engine | Supercharged 5.2-liter, DOHC 32-valve, V-8 |
| Power | 760 horsepower @ 7,300 rpm |
| Torque | 625-pound feet @ 5,000 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 7-speed dual-clutch automatic; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 3.4 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 11.3 seconds @ 132 MPH |
| Top speed | 180 MPH (manufacturer claim) |
The GT500 name was last used in 2014, and for 2019, the GT500 comes with 760 horsepower and a quick dual-clutch automatic. Prioritizing speed, the fastest factory Mustang is adorned with aero bits with its factory option handling package that optimized it for just that. Although it can easily knock on the door of 180-MPH, the GT500 is offered with magnetic damping, brakes, and tires that also make it capable of chasing down more expensive sports cars around racetracks and mountain roads.
52014 FPV Falcon GT-F 351
Top Speed: 186 MPH
The FPV or Ford Performance Vehicles, is technically Ford Australia and continued to produce the Falcon after it had been canceled in North America in the seventies. Down under though, FPV continued to develop the Falcon until 2014 when growing costs and dwindling popularity caught up with the Falcon and FPV decided to give it a commendable send-off.
Specifications
| Engine | Supercharged 5.0-liter, DOHC 32-valve, V-8 |
| Power | 471 horsepower @ 5,750 rpm |
| Torque | 420-pound feet @ 2,500-5,500 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 6-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 4.5 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 12.8 seconds @ 111 MPH |
| Top speed | 186 MPH |
With a supercharged Coyote V-8, yes, that Coyote V-8, the GT-F 351 is a four-door Mustang if Ford ever made one. “351” connotates the horsepower the GT-F produces in kilowatts. Which, translated to U.S. units, is 471 horsepower in a six-speed manual, four-door performance sedan that’s capable of hitting 186 MPH. The GT-F also takes a corner properly and stops well with its six-piston Brembo brakes up front. Which probably makes it more like an E39 M5 than a four-door Mustang.

10 Things Few People Know About Ford Performance

42005 Ford GT
Top Speed: 205 MPH
Effectively a homage to the Le Mans racers of the sixties, the 2005 Ford GT already had big shoes to fill. Especially with the hype and anticipation that went around, knowing Ford was even building it to begin with. And when it was introduced, the Ford GT had all the looks and styling from its older race car brother in a similar silhouette.
Specifications
| Engine | Supercharged 5.4-liter, DOHC 24-valve V-8 |
| Power | 550 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm |
| Torque | 500-pound feet @ 3,750 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 6-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 3.7 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 11.7 seconds @ 127 MPH |
| Top speed | 205 MPH (governor limited) |
Powered by a supercharged Ford modular V-8, the 2005 GT makes 550 horsepower that courses through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels. When it was released, it was naturally put up against the newest Ferrari of the time, the 360 Modena, and proved that the blue oval could still make fast cars and beat Ferrari when it came to sports cars. The Ford GT also topped the Modena’s 183-MPH top speed, running out of breath only after 205 MPH.
32013 Ford Shelby Mustang GT500 Super Snake
Top Speed: 216 MPH
If the Ford GT never existed, the Mustang would undoubtedly be Ford’s “halo car”. From its not-so-humble beginnings as the car that started the pony-car wars, the Mustang name has evolved along with Ford’s technology, even being elected to be its first mass-produced non-ICE vehicle. But the attachment of “GT500” to the Mustang name gives a very different mental image to any enthusiast. Even more so, when it’s followed by the words “Super Snake”.
Specifications
| Engine | Supercharged 5.8-liter, DOHC 32-valve V-8 |
| Power | 662 horsepower / 850 horsepower (optional) |
| Torque | 631-pound-feet / 800-pound-feet (optional) |
| Drivetrain | 6-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 3.7 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 11.9 seconds |
| Top speed | 216 MPH |
With 662 horsepower from the Ford factory, the 2013 GT500 is nowhere near slow. But Shelby ludicrously offers the already buff Mustang with an optional 850-horsepower performance package via a 3.6-liter supercharger that seriously ups the ante. But that’s not all that Shelby upgrades for the Mustang. The 850-horse version comes with an uprated cooling system, better suspension a revised body with the signature Super Snake styling cues, and even an optional wide-body kit just to name a few other upgrades.

22019 Ford GT
Top Speed: 216 MPH
The second generation Ford GT is a true successor to the first one that was introduced in 2005. And even the originals that conquered the Le Mans 24-Hours. A true endurance racer at heart, the Ford GT is powered by a high-performance Ecoboost engine which is Ford’s turbocharged gasoline direct-injection technology that makes more power while returning better fuel efficiency than that of a regular gasoline engine.
Specifications
| Engine | 3.5 literTwin-turbocharged and intercooler, Miller-capable DOHC 24-valve V-6 |
| Power | 647 horsepower @ 6,250 rpm |
| Torque | 550-pound feet @ 5,900 rpm |
| Drivetrain | 7-speed dual-clutch with manual mode; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 3.0 seconds |
| Quarter mile | 10.8 seconds @ 134 MPH |
| Top speed | 216 MPH (manufacturer claim) |
While it is a technology heavily used in the rest of the company’s vehicles, in the Ford GT, its main focus is speed and performance. Even as the first GT to step away from the use of a V-8 engine, the performance of the newest Ford GT rivals supercars from more high-end manufacturers like Lamborghini, Ferrari, and McLaren. Powered by a twin-turbocharged Ecoboost V-6, the Ford GT is capable of 216-MPH down the Mulsanne Straight in Le Mans, where it claimed a class victory for Ford just like in 1966.
11967 Ford GT40 Mk IV
Top Speed: 220 MPH
While the Mk 2 and 3 Ford GT40s were fast and successful at their Le Man’s endeavors for “The Deuce”, the fastest they could hit at the 3.6-mile Mulsanne Straight was just over 200 MPH. That all changed though with the introduction of the experimental J-cars that were further developed into the GT40 Mk IV which hit 220-MPH at the famous straight section at Le Mans.
Specifications
| Engine | 7.0-liter, pushrod OHV 16-valve naturally aspirated V-8 |
| Power | 500 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm |
| Torque | 470-pound-feet @ 5,000 rpm |
| Drivetrain | Mid-engine 4-speed manual; rear-wheel drive |
| Zero to 60 | 3.1 seconds (estimated) |
| Top speed | 220 MPH |
