Cost and value aside, would you buy one and race it, or would you buy the street version, if available??? For me, I want street, but barely, juuuuuuuust barely Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time I've heard of a street version. Ever since I read about the possibility of a GT350R in a response Amy gave in a previous (and now closed) thread in this forum, I've presumed that it would be something to replace the FR500C in Grand Am racing. But perhaps SAI is looking at a more modest race series (SCCA? NASA?). A barely street version does intrigue me because as an enthusiast who would not want to spend big race $ or risk damage I would love to do track days to see how my lap times compare to those of actual races/qualifications. -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like everyone else here, I am a HUGE Shelby fan-- and owned a GT350 in the past. I LOVED that car, and given the opportunity, I would buy a modern one in a heartbeat. I know that if we did a GT350, it would be done right-- right looks, right performance, etc. Sooooo, like you, I would not want to spend big race $-- but track days in something hot (really hot) would be wild. Not that my SS is not hot (nearly explosive!), but I loved all of the Shelbys of old (like different weapons for different battles), and the GT350 is no exception. Is this an informal poll??? Not really. But it never hurts to be heard Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
