What kind of idiot do you think is going to see this decal gimmick and think it's got a 427 under the hood? EVENTS RELATED package,it's not Roush slapping a 428 sticker on his for no reason,it's a LAME MARKETING EVENT PROMOTION......duh,get a life. A real enthusiast wouldn't just see a 427 sticker and get excited and especially a Shelby enthusiast,we would know what it is,another Shelby moneymaking scheme.
Only somebody like a ignorant Impreza owner would just see a 427 sticker and get excited. Do you think that '93 Indy 500 Camaro has 500HP or 500ci?

The race is being lengthened to suit the name. Nascar races rarely have an arbitrary length: 400 miles, 500 miles, 500 laps, etc. notable exceptions are the road courses that they run. This will be a 427 mile, 285 lap race.

The race will actually be lengthened to 427 miles and will be called the 'Shelby 427

Also, I don't think that anyone will be fooled into thinking that it will have a 427. Its more about the fact that if you see Shelby's name on a car, and its called a 427, the first thought that almost anyone has is that it should have a 427 cu engine.
