HORSBYT Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Finally had a chance to get the car out on a road course at the Auto Club Speedway this past weekend. I know how much everyone enjoys pics and video so here ya go. I'm sure i've been bitten by the road course bug, the car did GREAT! Albeit, the track was somewhat short in my opinion (1.8 miles) but alot of fun. Randy was there from Team Shelby and had a great time as well. You'll see his 427 GT5 on here as well. I thought the car did great! BTW - I apologize for the jerky video. My 70 year old father in law, god bless him wanted to be there to video tape....

FordRocks1 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Road racing looks like fun. Nice ride.....how does the temp hold up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HORSBYT Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Temp not an issue. In between runs I would pop the hood and let it cool for about an hour or so. Granted, as you can see it wasn't a very sunny day and the temp was about 70-72. If it were 85-90? Probably be a different story... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnrehder Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Cool, I'm going to Talladega Grand Prix on Saturday with my Club. We have the track all day to ourselves. This will be the first time I have had a chance to run a road course. I'm jazzed right now! Finally had a chance to get the car out on a road course at the Auto Club Speedway this past weekend.

427 Cammer Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 GREAT video, it was neat to see the SGT in action. You had the best sounding one there from what I heard on the video. Cant beat the V8 ROAR!! Phil Williamsport, Pa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HORSBYT Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Car looks great on the track. Was that a coach riding with you? Yes it was. He runs a 97 Saleen and is a VERY good driver himself. He gave me some great tips and pointed me in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
