shelby gt500

99prixgt

club of used to own a gp
I was just cruising around in my town, about to head home, when i spot a black gt500 with exhaust and tints. It was a pretty bad ass looking car :). I find that im in a mustang sandwich at this light, car next to me was the gt500 and the one behind me was a gt. The guy in the shelby is lookin over, giving me this "my car is better look" Light turns green and he gets on it weaving in between two cars going around a turn. Im behind him and this gt was behind me, on my ass...I turn right to follow this shelby, we catch another light. The shelby gets behind me and this pathfinder was next to me. The light turns green and i start hitting the gas, i get into second gear and lean into the throttle, the mustang follows, then the pathfinder that was next to me flys past giving me a ricer fly by! HAHA! i was like wtf?!? I wait for the mustang, he gets next to me, were both doing 50. No beeps, he gets the hit, i hit it, he jumps 2 cars on me but, im holding strong 2-2and1/2 cars behind and he's not really gaining any :th_king-normal:. I slow down after I hit about 80, the shelby keeps going, he seemed pretty pissed lol, im in the distance now and i see the pathfinder trying to race the shelby lol! The asshole in the shelby drops a gear cherps into 3rd, almost hitting the pathfinder and took off, going about 100. I lol'd. I think my car did pretty well for itself.
 


Nope, no way.

Either driver fail, or it wasn't a Shelby GT500..

You sure it wasn't a "Shelby GT".. Even if, they are 325hp stock.

Or your car is SERIOUSLY modded.

lol it was a shelby gt500. They have a distinctive sound. I recognize that 5.4 s/c sound :th_laugh-lol2:

No one believed me about the evo 10 either :th_laugh-lol2:

for the record regarding the evo10 post. It is an evo10 not a rallyart, i found out who the kid is who owns it.

Please dude, those things are almost as bad as a GTP wight wise. Geared horrible for MPG's and have REALLY bad traction issues...I could keep going but they aren't worth the trouble. I ran one on 152 and nosed it from a 70 with stock gears and my 3.2" setup. Oh, and he downshifted too. Even the Roush 427's are slow. There were FOUR of them one night at KCIR...best one ran a 12.9 on slicks. WOW!! Not. Only supercharged Ford I ever had trouble with was a "600 hp...or so he said" Lightning...which only could muster a little over a car on me. For the money...get a used C5 Z06...there was one at the local track that couldn't touch mid 13's. Weak.
 


Post your mods or it is :th_BSflag-big:

Either he was not trying or had a really bad at driving.

Your a high 15 low 16 sec car until you post your mods Vs a low 12sec car with driver

So first you were holing strong 2-2 1/2 cars, now you were "Somewhat" holding?

I just think it's funny when people post exaggeration stories.

Don't get your ford thong all in a twist.

It also all depends on what you call hanging...

Some people call hanging 1/2 a car, in that case i guess i fall into the "somewhat" categlory

It was 2 cars right off the hit. Then he pulled another 1/2 a car and i stayed there up to 80ish
 


dude dont worry 99prix. kawaford is just being *****y for some reason. how mant times do people have to have these kind of fights online? who cares who won? at least he was havin fun goin fast. plus he did a great job gettin his "gt" runnin better then some gtp's.

I'm just busting balls, and debating for the hell of it.

I really could care less if he raped a GT500..

Yes you do. Otherwise you wouldn't be sitting here debating about it. They are heavy tanks...lame Ford supercharged engineering which btw does nothing...can't hook for beans...for that kind of money? HA!! Can you honestly say a high revving DOHC motor with a SUPERCHARGER AND INTERCOOLER getting the snot beat out of it by a little pushrod N/A car is cool, or fast for that matter? Not likely.

Just for fun: YouTube - 2007 Shelby GT500 1/4 mile crash Typical.

YouTube - 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 vs. 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR

Whipple what? YouTube - Corvette vs GT500

And here is a good driver: YouTube - 2008 GT500 Vs 2006 Viper (High Quality)

Keep in mind...a bone stock Z06 will run down...hmm...THAT MODDED ONE? That's right. Oh...and here he put on slicks. YouTube - Ranger C6Z06 10.85 Bone-Stock on Drag Radials

And just last week. Shafer threw down a 12.4 on street tires in his GTP...slicks I bet he'd be running right along with that GT500...same weight and 2 less cylinders.
