    Looking for GT350 Owners' Feedback on the car...

    I have had my GT350 for a year now. I have just put my 450 rwhp/470 rwtq Terminator up for sale. I absolutely love the 350. I had quit driving the Terminator - its low end torque is addictive, but driving the 350 is a whole new world. So much more refined, so much better handling, and the...

    Black 2003 Cobra Convertible For Sale - GA

    This might be the hardest post of my life. I have decided to sell my beloved 2003 Black/Parchment/Black Cobra Convertible. I need the garage for my new 2018 Shelby GT350. I am the original owner and have been a member of this forum since April 2002, even before I took delivery of the car. I...

    I did it. Sold the SB Cobra for the GT350.

    I have a track prepped 03 Cobra with 500 plus rwhp and torque. I just picked up a GT350 - the first car that really captured my attention since the 03 Cobra. The GT 350 does not have the stump pulling, tire shredding torque (which I do love), but man it is light years ahead in drive ability...

    GT500 Will Kill GT350 Prices, No?

    This. Plus I am going to drive the crap out of my GT350 for many years and do not really care about resale. And look at Terminator prices - those are still running at close to 50% of their original MSRP for clean examples - 16 years later!

    GT500 Will Kill GT350 Prices, No?

    After a long absence I am back with a new GT350 - and still have my 520 rwhp 03 Cobra. I bought the GT350 to go road racing. It is the perfect tool - 500+ hp, NA, 8,200 rpm, perfectly balanced. A scalple for the track. I have had 600 plus HP supercharged track cars, they just are not the...

    How much power is safe on a Road Course

    Calling all track dogs. How much power do you guys think is safe on a road course? We are putting a lot more stress on our cars than the drag guys, running WOT for hours at a time rather than seconds. How much power is too much? How much is unsafe? I just got my blower ported and added a 2...

    Custom Rollbar Installed - Does not intrude on rear seats!

    Check out my new welded in 4 point roll bar. It mounts to the framing behind the rear seats but goes over the top and through the plastic. It does NOT go through the rear seats or interfere with the convertible top. Also includes a removable cross bar for a five point harness and new seatbelt...

    My Terminator, Gutted! (pics)

    My Terminator, Gutted! (now with pictures) My Terminator has around 36,000 miles. I drive it daily, and take it out to Road Atlanta 3 times a year or so. So I took my Terminator in to have the Eaton rebuilt (noisy bearings), upgrade the rear suspension to address wheelhop, and do some...

    No Roll Protection

    Anyone else suprised that the GT500 vert does not offer any roll over protection? Seems a 475 hp vert. should have something, most of the competitors offer some form of roll protection - Vette, BMW, etc. It is a pity to have a car like this and not be able to run it at the track: drag or road...

    Jet Powered Beetle

    I never though I could say these words, but that is one bad Beetle. 1350 flame throwing horsepower and street legal to boot. http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/street-legal-jet-powered-vw-beetle

    Bigger Tires, More Mustangs - says Shelby

    The latest issue of the SVT rag had an article on the GT500. Shelby is quoted as saying he thought the car needed bigger tires and a stiffer rear suspension and that both were approved "yesterday". Also the article says that more specialized Mustangs, a new Lightening, and other vehicles...

    Alternator died - fixing the tick

    Well the alternator on my Terminator died yesterday, stranding me in the middle of a busy intersection. First the radio shuts off for no aparent reason. WTF? Then the traction control light comes on. Then it starts to hesitate. Then it dies. Won't turn over. Wait five minutes, starts up...

    tangled with Porsche GT3

    Out for a drive in the country and I see a 911 coming up fast. It passes by and I see it is a GT3 - a stipped for racing Porsche - 380 hp and only 3040 lbs - MSRP $99,000. I pull in behind him and he hits it. I hit it in third and stay right on his tail. Two more times and he can't get away...

    Busted - speeding for 8 seconds

    I never speed, unless I am on a closed track, which we get to do frequently at Road Atlanta. I feel no need to speed on the street (although I usually get to the legal speed limit as quickly as possible). However, last week I was in SC on the beach with friends from NY. I wanted to...

    CD changer TOO HOT

    Anyone take their car on a long road trip yet? After about an hour of playing the stereo at decent volumes, CDs come out of that roaster at seriously elevated temps. I would guess over 150 degrees. I do not think the mechanics of the CD changer are going to last under these conditions. I...

    Out of gas - check engine light

    O.K. I am officially an idiot. I ran out of gas on the expressway today. Luckily I had enough speed to coast to the next exit and enough fumes to get to the gas station (starting the car three more times and stalling three more times). :rollseyes Now my check engine light is on. Do you...
