Info on guys reviewing the GT500 in San Fran

[shelbykr]

Hi Everyone,

I'm a new member on the Shelby GT500 forum. (Great forum for the 2020 GT500 info)
Does anyone know why there is no current info on Youtube about the GT500 from guys like "Stangmode" and the like.
Many were invited to San Francisco by Ford to test and review a week or so ago on the 2020 Mustang lineup etc. After the review of the 2020 HP eco, about a week ago there has been nothing.
They should have driven the GT500 by this time.
Has there been an embargo of info or something ?

Thank you
Sam

Stankmode doesn't have his car yet, so YouTube content will be later when he gets his car (ahead of all the other folks who were ahead of him at that dealership).

I am not aware of a GT500 in San Fran for press review. However I do know there is a press embargo until later on. So there will not be any press reviews for some time.

Ford placed the participants under an embargo and won't let anyone comment on it until a certain date.

C8's are currently being tested by several parties, and the embargo is supposed to lift 10/16 from what I hear. That car won't hit the ground until around February. So what in the world is the hold up on the GT500, which will be on the streets in a month or two?

Im guessing the reviews are going to be lack warm otherwise they would be all out already. I still do not think they can turn 4200lb into a track car. I mean bugatti couldn't do it.

Uh, I don't think that was Bugatti's goal

There is a reason he goes by firestarter. He is just stirring the pot (again).

Im not saying break the NDA I am saying it is odd it is so long. I mean the C8 vette impressions come out mid October. How is questioning the track capabilities of a 4200 RWD car stirring the pot?

Maybe it's time to go back to 'Vetteville?

Because it has all been beat to death (and not in a nice way I might add). And you were one of those guys stirring the pot back when the C8 unveiling occurred. And here we go again, huh?
How about we agree to just wait and see? Debating and discussion is better done with facts.

I would surmise that the reviews will be out soon. Its Oct 1st. Some very lucky people will be getting their vehicles soon. I'm thinking next week will start to see the news and reviews.

Yes, I agree. It is then that we crank up the troll machine again and all the usual names will be here in force. However this time, we will have a car and supporting data.
