    A 40th anniversary model is in the works and many HP up grades to the new Shelby mustang will be released shortly, Gary patterson from Shelby talked about just a few, but said the excitement is flowing for performance, 500HP is just the bottom of what you can drive.

    Carroll has told me since the prototype stage of the GT500 that the car could be easily increased to 750hp. I don't recall exactly how, but he said it would be easy to get it to that level. Thanks for the info Tout!

    The factory was on an off day as they work a 4 day 10 hour shift, but the sheer number of cars inside getting modified and the parking lots surrounding it was great to see. Gary did mention the 750 HP number , but smiled when I asked if that would void the warranty,right now it is very exciting for all involved.
