Just can't get enuff!
Nice, such a beauty.
:thumbsup:
Four words... seems like the car is a handful, or maybe they just don't trust the media warm shoes with the hardware.

Oh, yeah... here's AG with black stripes somewhere around Monterey / Pac Grove / Pebble Beach. :)
Why? Because.... here's my short sweet comment. :D :headbang:

that's my ride. exactly.

I didn't interpret those comments as the car being a handful. the 'don't shift' comment is consistent with the hot laps I got around LS...there's just not a lot of shifting required given the gearing.

'Don't lift' could just mean that you don't need to...it's that grippy.

That's what I'm hoping they mean ;-)

Very true - or could be out of context for instructions in a few specific points on the track. Maybe I've been around 911's for so long, where lifting usually == spinning and/or death. :headbonk:

That's likely the thing they are wanting to avoid...lifting and decel in a corner.

As a track denizen... I also agree. Don't lift, don't shift... will also yield to smooth in, fast out! :thumbsup:

Grey with white stripes.

Strange color combination. It would take sometime for me to get used to that. As for now it's a beautiful car that they fiddled with a paint scheme that went in the wrong direction...

I saw an update from Evan Smith with pics on FB.

"Shelby GT350 is simply amazing, I wish all my car friends could experience this. Drove it on the street this morning, heading out on track in a few minutes."

This was posted 41 minutes ago.
