We have succeeded in building this potential into your new Shelby, but to what degree it’s utilized will depend largely on you as the owner and driver. Even the most skilled drivers, the real pros, always take time to completely familiarize themselves with a new piece of equipment. They also know the importance of proper maintenance, based on the intended use of their vehicle. Take a tip from them and do the same. A little time spent here will pay off later in added miles of trouble free operation, overall performance and great driving pleasure.

During the 1960s, Shelby American offered a drag racing version of the Shelby Cobra called the “Dragonsnake.” Given the new Ford Shelby GT500’s dual clutch transmission and stout 5.2L engine, Shelby American reimagined Ford’s new Mustang supercar for that same mission. The Shelby team’s design for the Dragon Snake adds more power to the car (800 HP+), revises the suspension for maximum grip and straight line acceleration, lightens the car with specialty equipment and exotic materials, retunes the DCT and modifies the bodywork including unique wheels. A widebody option is also being considered. In addition to the engine tune, Shelby American added high-flow catalytic converters, new lightweight glasswork and other innovations. 2020 Shelby GT500 Dragon Snake Concept Standard Features Performance Exteriors Interiors - Shelby suspension system - Carbon fiber hood - Custom Shelby leather interior - MagneRide enabled - Drag style carbon fiber spoiler - Serialized CSM numbered engine plate - Front and rear springs - One-piece forged aluminum wheels - Serialized CSM numbered dash plaque -Front and rear sway bars - Hardened and extended wheel studs - Shelby Supercharger upgrade - Performance tires - Windshield and glass package - Wide body option - Performance Half-shafts - Shelby hood pins - Full exhaust system - Striping and badging - Catalytic converters - Mufflers + exhaust tips (Cat back system) - Emissions complaint 50 state legal FOB Las Vegas.
