Shelby Super Snake numbers close to new SS...

I hope the surface and the driver was terrible. BUT even that trap speed is telling me that car makes no where near 850 hp...

I don't understand why anyone would buy a modified Mustang from Shelby American when Ford is offering better performing cars right off the showroom floor. There was a day when taking a Mustang to SA might have made sense, but those days have long passed.

Shelby American's time is past...they're a dinosaur needing to fade away.

The last package they made that was worth a darn was the "GT350" they produced in 2011-12

The company is garbage. They just slapped some parts on the car. To top it off, they added 400 horsepower to a car that has 3.73 gears. Great freaking job, dumbasses.

This ^ Shelby American just slaps some body parts on, new wheels crappy tires and if you really fork out the $$$ they slap a supercharger on it and crank the HP out really high

If you are still spinning halfway down the track, the MPH makes sense lol.

Lots of power+no traction improvements= dyno queen

I bested one from a roll in my "base" C7, at the time I had no idea what a "Super Snake" was. Makes sense now, my car will do a best of 12.0 in the quarter on paper.

Because you would need to put 4 extra tires on to stop this thing from spinning by the time it reaches the end of the 1320.......spin CITY. Car is worthless imo.
