Rev Dennis Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Anyone know of a shop familiar with Shelbys in SE PA? I am looking for a shop that is experienced/qualified to do some basic mods like a brake upgrade on a SGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMAv Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 You might try Evolution Performance. They are off I95 just north of Wilmington, DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyEra08 Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 probably a good one is Sloan Ford in Exton, everytime there is a Shelby in their showroom, and I think that is where Tony got his GT350 fixed. Also CJ Pony Parts in Harrisburg does work on customers cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Dennis Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Sloan? Thanks. That's where I bought the 500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeye010 Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Evolution is really the only choice.great geoup of guys. But on such simple mods anyone with s197 experience can do the work as you car is really just a fancy GT. Why dont you have some fun yourself and pick up a brembo take off setup and do the install yourself. Thats most of the fun in modding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well say a GT500 is just a V6 Mustang with a motor swap and bigger tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope to meet you on a track someday to show you how impressive a SGT is. I have fun blowing by most cars on the track........its my version of hunting.

Rev Dennis Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 "I hope to meet you on a track someday" Where do you go to track a vert? Trackmasters does not allow them. Just curious. I agree that one must drive a Shelby GT to appreciate the confidence the suspension tweeks give the driver. But my GT500 is like a boat compared to it. As they say "It's a cruiser".

NordicShelby Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 I have been to the Tulsa event for 3 years and the track there is Hallet which is a good track.........you get three days of track time in this event I have brought my car there all three years I have been to the Vegas bash for 3 years and the track at the speedway is OK but not my favorite I have had to rent a 6 banger every bash but this year I will be bringing my beast to the Bash and I am extremely happy that they are having the track time at Spring Mountain. This bash is going to be extremely amazing since they changed the date and the location. The date was important to change so more people will be able to attend that want to bring there car and the track location doesn't get better. (3 days of track time with this event) I went to the Texas Shelby GT350 in Grandbury Texas last year and the Texas Motorsports track was truely incredible with the elevation changes. I was able drive the SGT to this event.....not such a good idea if you are tracking the car since breakdowns are likely. (two track days for this event) I have been to Brainerd Minnesota to BIR three times now and they do not have any rules about convertibles actually they would not allow me to even run in the slow class as they black flagged me off the track saying I was intimidating beginning drivers, the classes normal times got mixed up due to some problems people had with there cars on the track so I accidently went out on the biginners session and they did not like that. I think that Shelbys rules about convertibles not running in class 1 started from the people who organze the Tulsa event.....I hope they change those rules for the 50th Annivesary bash.
