The Concept

Disappointed in the performance characteristics of the industry’s best four-seaters, this car collector started with a brand new 2007 Shelby GT 500 and set out to build a car that would be street comfortable on the way to the kids’ soccer practices, but could compete with the world’s best on the road course and at the drag strip. A true adventure in Road and Track! This is not a car produced by Shelby or a car for sale. It is a one time project by the owner.

What is phenomenal about this car is that it performs in the quarter mile, handles as a race car on the road course track, and is still a comfortable four seat driver. Impressive!
