Very nice numbers. Just make sure if you own one of these cars you are aware of this:  
“A word of warning to all Shelby GT 500 owners out there. This car has a totally unique electronic control system, not seen on any other Ford (not even the Ford GT). The drive by wire system will take power away if you pulley the car, and then add it back in slowly. The car could be given what is thought to be a _safe_ tune on the dyno, but then blow up a few days later.”
