"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

    • And how many words have I got to say? And how many times will it be this way? With your arms around the future And your back up against the past You're already falling It's calling you on to face the music And the song that is coming through You

My GT500 doesn't corner as well as your car, fortunately I live in the prairies and the roads are loooong and flat.

So far I have only had it up to 85. Have 265 miles on it now and winter is coming. Trying to hit 350(random number ::)) before the snow.

Wish me luck!

G.T. 500 is a beast.  Different weapon different purpose.  Equally deadly when placed in the correct arena.  And just as aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Is that a warning sign for arrow headed snakes up ahead?

LOL!  Quite likely though I haven't been able to verify with an actual specimen.

If it is a cobra ahead warning, that's okay.  Go faster!

Hi Deathsled,

Here is a road you might like.  This is Highway 36 west of Red Bluff California, 140 miles of curves and nothing.  I was warned to fill up on fuel before crossing and they were not kidding.    I got to cross this road after making a navigational error when Highway 101 was closed from mud slides when I was trying to get to Ferndale CA from Sacramento on Highway 101.  It was a six hour re-route.    It was like 1:00 in the morning when starting to make the crossing, no traffic and out in the middle of no where.  The roads were so curvy at the top I was using my navigation systems to track my location and the direction of the next curve.  The headlights were only lighting the road banks with every turn.  I was starting to wonder if I was going to have a Sasquatch encounter because the top is so remote.  Remember  Patterson-Gimlin and Bluff Creek, just north from the top of High way 36?

Take care

Cory

That puts me in a dream state.  I need to get out there with red and tackle that road!  That is one of the many reasons I love this country!  So lucky I am to be born in this time and be in this country.

Hers a nice fall picture
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

Great Fall pic of contrasting red Shelby and white one further down the road!

+ 1 nice ride

On a crisp Autumn day.

I have all UNGOLD cars

I am certainly not a Shelby Expert
