Deep Dive into the #111 1966 Shelby GT350

car. I've been racing this car for uh more than 15 years and me and this car are one and um I love this thing. Uh we've won a ton of stuff with this. We won the ProAm at Indianapolis with Paul Tracy as our ProAm partner. Um just a great car. It's really well dialed in. You want to sit in it? No. What? Sure. Watch your head on this right here. Hold my stuff. So, being so acclimated to this car and then going to the Cup car, what was the biggest thing you're like, "Wow, this is so different than the grip." Um, and the brakes. The brakes and the grip on this. Here, grab that steering wheel. We'll put that on there. There you go. I have a 67. Do you? Yeah, that's cool. Fun car. Fastback or coupe. Yeah. Nice car. Each one of those wheel wells takes 10 hours of a very, very talented body guy. And see on the front body line still maintained, but you can still feel the um So, this was all hand hammered. Yeah, you can feel it. That's cool. Where it was patted in. Yeah. Oh, so they hammered it out of the st out of the fender. This isn't added on to the fender, right? Wow. That's That's the original fender. Now that exhaust system is four into two into one into one stainless steel. So that's why these things sound and scream like they do. How big is the class that is that you're running this in today? There'll be probably 50 cars. Really? Yeah. I have to get past two of the four um big block cars um to make the podium. And so it is highly likely that my Shelby will be going to the body shop after this race. And we have a camera in there. So let him have it. Thanks for what you guys do. Thank Pretty crazy. These are real Shelby Mustangs. A real GT350. At least two of them. I would imagine that one up there is a real one, too. Last year, we didn't even get to see these things run or we weren't paying attention to it because we were so deep into the stock car stuff, but there's less of that going on now. So, we actually get to check some of this out. What are you doing here? Yeah, we brought one of the rock cars. Oh, you were actually working on that orange one over there? Yeah. Yeah, that's awesome. That's uh Dave. So, we're just doing a shakeddown, getting it ready for Monteray. Oh, cool. Heat up here.
