I just received another picture of him with StormCat. Did the Bubbles refuse to have him in the picture?

I had a great time at a few of the events. Had a busy day at the track entertaining family . I didn't get to see William much or hang out with the bubble girls unfortunately. I did have Billy take me around the track for an awesome ride in Helenor .

At the kick-off car show at the Ford dealership they invited me to put my car on the showroom floor..

Anybody hear of this Camilo guy? Apparently he gets around . There was this sketch on the inside door of the Shelby American hauler

A few more pictures from the opening night car show at Gus Machado Ford.. That's forum member Ernie's car on the far end of the Shelby American Trailer.

I shared the showroom floor with a GT40 replica it was blue with an orange stripe.. there's recently been some questions whether that combination look good. It looked pretty good to me..

Saw these tail lights on a Mustang. The GT effect is trickling down. They actually looked pretty good...

Brian, do you have any info on that radical looking Mustang behind your awesome GT in the Ford showroom?

You guys down there are having too much fun!

Stormtrooper will really put you over the top. See if you can get the Bubbles to wear some revealing outfits when the new car arrives.

That's Ernie's Francis Jr's race car.. I think that one's built to Trans Am spec. He's an up-and-coming racer. He just got a ride in the new multimatic GT4 Mustang.. let me see if I can round up a better picture.

A big thank you to Bob Zinzell. President of Team Shelby South Atlantic! ! Looking forward to next year

I'm going to have to buy a wing from you.

The GT doesn't have the grip the DP does. I came through turn One around 80 mph and the tail came around. I slammed on the brakes and stopped her in the grass. Lucky nobody was coming and I just tore up a little grass.

Probably fastest I've ever spun

Storms wing looks like it will make a HUGE increase in rear grip over stock. Just be it to balance it with more front aero...

We can talk..

Yep, and yep.. you can see my front splitter in the picture in post # 8.. you can get by without it but the car will push sooner than later. The wing is fully adjustable so if you want to maximize the downforce a splitter really helps balance the total package...
