EL SHELBY Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Anyone in the DFW area looking for a Shelby Club really needs to check out Scatracks.org. Our next 'Meet and Greet' will be will be Saturday, January 21st, at Papa's BBQ on Northwest Highway & 35E, 10:30 to 1:30. All are welcome to attend and Shelby ownership is not necessary to join the club. Just need to be a fan of the Old Man. 'In fact, the only real requirement is a love for the cars and a sincere desire to participate with a very fun group of people. While many of our club activities revolve around an automotive theme, SCAT stresses the social and family aspects or our organization. We routinely sponsor family picnics, tours, and outings...But we also enjoy our cars, too! SCAT folks tend to adhere to Mr. Shelby’s philosophy that his cars, “were made to be driven”...that’s exactly what we do as often as possible!'

springer Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 With all the Shelbys in the DFW area - where are you guys? Come on over to Papa's BBQ Saturday and have lunch, visit and check out the club. We'd love to have some more members!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbsFaris Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Ive been trying to get more involvement from SCAT for years....and I personally know most the founders....hope we can grow a bit closer in the next few events!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL SHELBY Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm really not sure why more of the SCAT members dont frequent TS. John, Carl, and myself are the only ones stop by here frequently. And I'm really not sure why more TS members (specifically DFW area folks) haven't check out SCAT. Frankly, SCAT needs more younger members to help keep the club active. I'm not as active as I would like to be but I have a very young family. In a few more years I'll be able to devote more time and include my wife and daughters. SCAT has members present and nearly all North and Central Texas Ford, Mustang, and Shelby events. Many of the SCAT members are also members of the North Texas Mustang Club which sponser shows all Summer long ending with the Yellow Rose at Will Rangers in Fort Worth. In addition to SCAT's members what draws me to the club is it's close association with Mr. Shelby, along with his Son and Grandson (Patrick & Aaron) which opperate Legacy Bank of Texas.

stewarbc Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Any Shelby owner in the Dallas/Ft Worth area should check out this great group of folks with some awesome vehicles. I went to the meet and greet today with a buddy of mine(he drove his white 07SGT) and I drove my Black 07SGT1163. We were the newbies but this group welcomed us as if we were old friends. We both ended up signing up to become members. I met springer and we went for a spin in his awesome GT/SC. It was simply incredible. All I can say is WOW. It was great to finally meet El Shelby. His blue Shelby is simply awesome with the MBRP muffler deletes, super cool wheels, and interior modifications. In summary, we met a host of wonderful people. I highly recommend this group....... Thanks to Springer for calling me earlier in the week to remind me to come...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zachman Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Jason, I talked to Springer twice today about attending your SCAT meeting in February and going to Vegas for the 50TH. Hope to see you in February. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Whats up with the 50th tour? It's coming to Dallas the end of June. Details are still being firmed-up, but, there will be a banquet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelby girl Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Yea a banquet. That is the best part!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL SHELBY Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 A track event was mentioned and is not out of discussion but late June in North Texas can be pretty dog-gone HOT. I know at least one performance driving school in town will not run events during the middle of the summary simply because its too hard on cars, drivers, and staff running the events. Additionally, this event will be within a few weeks of Tulsa (which is still really hot) where I would suspect most in the region are preparing ($) for track time. One of the ideas presented was an evening show and cruise along with the banquet. SCAT is working with Shelby and the promotion co. running the 50th tour to determine what will work best consideing the tours complete schedule along other Ford/Mustang/Shelby events already scheduled. If anyone has suggestions on what to do and where to do it (within DFW) throw them out there and I'll relay them. One idea I'm going to toss in is an AutoX course.
