shelbymotorsports Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Quit with these posts. You're making me regret not going. Oh well at least by me not going there was room for another person to enjoy the hospitality of SAI. I'll be watching the TV coverage on Sunday.

John Canfield Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Since the race on Sunday happens to be on my birthday..I fell really crappy for not being able to make this event...and I am sure it is an event... Just seing the Super Snake 427 pace car in front of the field at the Saturday race makes me feel really left out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilmor Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I had a great time there too! I traveled home all day today to find (and plow, and shovel...) 9" of fresh snow. What a contrast!!

ceswert Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hello TS, The Fox guys said the track was dusty or sandy. Was there a lot of particulate in the air? Sorry I could not be there. The tv coverage was very good. I guess this track is shorter and faster than most. How fast did the Shelby SS pace car get up to? Carroll looked and sounded great! What a hot rodder!

SLB8SNK Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 It was a great race and I finally got to meet some members from here and Stang Mafia, how cool was that!

09shlb Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 GREAT WEEKEND :happy feet: :happy feet: :happy feet: and I agree, the 427 package looks MUCH better in person ( you were correct Bud ). I should of pulled the trigger on that one. I was dropping off my GT500 to have the 427 pacakage installed and there was two SS owners in the office trying to get Bud to install the 427 emblems on their cars while in the shop. Apparently they had declined the 427 emblems when they saw the photos but after seeing them in person, changed their minds. I thought the pics looked good but they really looked good in person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Saute Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 The weekend was fantastic! For me it started with picking up my 427 White Convertible, seeing Bud, Adrienne, and Cynthia! I couldn't have been more pleased with the way the side emblem had turned out. Even the graphics this time were embroidered into the headrest instead of being a cover like on the Super Snake. Unfortunately we missed the qualifying event. The next day at the cafe when I pulled up in the car I had people coming over to admire, ask questions, and photograph it. Everyone had good things to say. The Sam's Club 300 was eventful, the weather was nice, and the seating was good. The Harley Davidson event was one not to miss, with the cars that were displayed, and the people that came. It was great getting together with many team members that I had not really had much of an opportunity to chat with at the Birthday Bash, and meeting new ones. The car was a hit there also, again many questions, and photo's. Even had a girl fall backwards into the car over the passenger door. On both days the Shelby Booth was hopping! Lot's of stuff to look at, and buy! I was lucky enough to have my car on display there on Sunday, and was a little overwhelmed with the amount of attention that it received. I have to give a special thanks to Gary, Pat, and the guy that cleaned it. (Unfortunately I can't remember his name) Also a big thank you to Glenn (from Quantum) for policing the car when I was at the races. People just can't get enough of it. Again I was told 2 girls just decided to go in get a feel for the car. (must be a chick magnet) Before the race Donny B. had a tail-gate get together, and many members showed up for that. Donny thank your wife for a great Brat! There's been enough said about the main race that I wont expand on that subject. Thank you all for a great time! I look forward to the next..... All the best.... Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
