Default Sideways PUT TO SHAME an '07 Mustang Shelby GT 500

After Cove, Phil ran a '07 Mustang Shelby GT 500 (400+HP). Results: Even with Phils old legs, tired arms, and slow shifting, he STILL WALKED AWAY by a few cars.

Why not? The shelby weighs nearly 4000lbs with 500hp. Phils car makes well north of the 450hp? mark with a car thats 1000+ lbs lighter. Numbers seem right to me.

I was there also, and yes it did happen. It was lovely to see. That Stang definately knew he was there. He worked everyone for a couple of miles just to get to the head of the pack. Unfortunately for him the last car to hookup with was Phil.

I have driven one of the GT500's and think Phil could take it easily.
