Charles from Function Factory Performance joins me in my 760hp 2020 Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track Pack riding on Hoosier R7 tires for an intense private track day at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit in Oklahoma! We had 20 cars split into groups of 5 on the track at a time. It was north of 100...
Thank you sir!
I took the front fascia off the car and sprayed the trans cooler with water after my excursion into the creek. I did not drop it down through to see how plugged it was. I did not show a picture of the whole thing plugged because I never took one. The tech at the dealership hit it...
I take my 2020 Shelby GT500 CFTP to the dealer to change both filters in the Tremec DCT TR-9070 7-speed dual clutch transmission. The transmission fluid is drained and the side filter as well as the pan filter are both changed... I show the process!
I've had 3 recent track days where I got...
Charles did have the trans replaced in his car. As for my overheating issues... I’ve already solved it and track tested it on another 100+ degree day. I’ve got some editing to do, but info coming soon.
Charles from Function Factory Racing/Function Factory Performance joins me at Eagle's Canyon Raceway in TX for a HOT, but fun ass track day in the advanced red group with Chin Track Days! My buddies are also there with their 2020+ GT500s for some 100+ degree track fun! After an orientation...
I provide a variety of different views. Hopefully everyone finds something they like. As for the gear, the tranny does a great job keeping you in the proper gear for max performance at any given moment. I had Hoosiers on for this day, which provide excellent traction.
I had one more track day with an overheating trans… finishing that video soon. Follow-on videos will cover what was done to the trans. Problem now solved.
Sorry for my delayed reply. I was at an out of state private track event that had me busy for a couple/few days.
I have yet to see a 22 HE 500 in the wild. I’ll see one eventually as we have quite a few Shelbys in the DFW area of TX.
Congrats on yours!
Team Shelby hosted a fantastic show in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of TX that was open to all Ford powered vehicles. I took my 2020 Shelby GT500 CFTP and my wife took her brand new 2022 Mustang Mach E GT to the show. Her new vehicle was a big hit and garnered a lot of attention. Aaron Shelby...
Ride along in a 760hp 2020 Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track Pack in the advanced red group with Edge Addicts at the iconic Circuit Of The Americas track in Austin Texas! Footage is captured from 5 camera locations including a GoPro 360 Max that provides a unique panning experience on track! The...
No I didn’t. I did have a track day after that without heat issues though. However, it was much cooler outside and was at Ozarks, which is a much more technical track (not standing on the gas pedal all day).
Inspection of all the lines/bottom of the trans looks good. The bottom closeout panel...
I did some maintenance after this weekend, which didn’t solve the problem. I then hit the dealer for warranty work (I am stock), but haven’t had a chance to drive/test the car so I’ll hold off on what I did until I know the results.
