Recommended Posts

Oz and his wife picked up #3 this morning. This was the first time that I have met him and his wife face to face. They are GREAT folks. It was my pleasure helping him get the Super Snake. I will let him post more pictures when he get home, but yall have already seen it a few times. His car and mine have posed a few times together on here :hysterical:

 

Heres one pic of Oz, his wife and #3

Thanks Michael for all of your help. I know that your red #14 is going to miss old #03.

We had a great ride for the 650 miles from Perry, Ga. to Manassas, Va. This car is awsome There is not a street car that can compare with the power and handling of these cars. If you can imagine hoping into a NASCAR and driving it on the street that would be as close as you can get. The car has an uncomfortable feel to it at first

and is almost intimidating. But it only takes a few miles to realize that you just don't need much acceleration. It handles very well in traffic if you just use 1/4 inch of pedal.

I only had a couple of items that I had issues with. 1) spots on stripes, 2) headlights condinsation 3) wheel weights sling off.

When we came up the road We got a lot of thumbs up, especially in the Charlotte, N.C. area. I did open it up a few times and it doesn't take long to get to 150. But the car handles very well even then.

I did let my oldest son take it for a spin when we came through Greene county Va. and I think he stired up the County Police nest there since for the next 2 days the county and State police placved road blocks looking for a Black Super Snake with temp Ga. tag.

We sneeked out late. Late I was challenged by a Black Charger a couple of times, I didn't take the bait and he turned out to be a State Police with unmarked car.

Now I know how Jessy James felt when someone thought they was faster on the draw. You're going to get this, just be careful you don't have to prove anything. These 725 hourses can run.

Thanks to Amy, Bud, Adrienne and all of the folks at Shelby Autos, especially Carroll Shelby.

Nice S.S you must be proud of her but I have noticed that alot of 08` s are getting completed ahead of a lot of 07`s how does this happen?

Theres alot of 07s completed they just havent posted on here. Most of the pictures Bud has posted are of 07s. I dont know why guys with 08s are posting more than guys with 07s.

 

 

Come on 07 SS. Lets here what you have to say about yalls SS.

For those interested in seeing 08SS003 Black/Black. I'll be taking it to Virginia International Raceway in Danville, Va. on the 31May for the SVT/Cobra meet. It should be a fun day. They will let us take out cars on the track, although I probably won't,

Come and enjoy the day with other Shelby nuts.

Oz if you get a chance to go on the track DO IT!!! I wasnt going to track my car in VEGAS, but after thinking about it I did and it was a BLAST. If there was a track closer I think I would do it more often. You dont have to run the car that hard, just run a few laps and see how it handles and how well you do driving it.
