Um, the original shelbys were built for the track and the street cars were also after a fashion? That was the whole point to the orignial GT500s. It was all about racing. I never said Auto-x, Im talking more about track sessions like sebring and other major tracks. The new shelby is just a name, it dosnt follow the orginal designers ideals at all.

I bet its just a name im sure Carrol Shelby just throws his name on whatever. Im sure they built this car for show. NOT! This car was made to be a beast!

Here is an Idea of how it handles. 700ft. Slalom and 200ft Skidpad

Stock Gt500:
.87 g's @ 66.2 mph

Super Snake:
.93g's @ 68.4 mph

c6 z06:
.93g's @ 69.9mph

The supersnake went 12.5 @ 119.9 with a 2.4 60' in the 1/4 spinning on the 600hp setup with 20" wheels.I say if they could knock down the 60' that would be a high 11sec car on the 600hp setup. I could only imagine what the 725 hp one would do with light wheels an dr's.

It's a beautiful car...especially in that first pic. $75K though for mid 12's.... no thanks. My car can do that and I paid 70K less...lol


That car looks a whole lot better than mine though.

Its capable of hitting a high 11 on 600hp with tires. Port,Pulley,Tune,Upgrade fuel pump,injectors, Dr's your looking at 700+ which Im sure can hit a low 11 maybe a high 10, then again you can also spray it

The z06 isnt cheap the zr1 wont be cheap either. Plus its a brand new shelby cobra they have to jack the shit out of the price.

Yeah, those stripes are gay. I'd take them off too, and then I'd put some backward graphics and carbon fiber ghost flames.
