Allen and I talked on Saturday.  When he told me he drove 17+ hours straight to get there, I about fell over.  Awesome story.

Thanks!!

If you show up and pay same-day admission, can you park down in the lower fan zone, or do you need to register ahead for that area?

Excellent video.

Looking forward to this!!  Thanks for posting. 

Well.......that helped.  Much more friendly on the freeway with the 3.50s. Thanks everyone!!

Thanks again for all the advice.  I got tied up at work for a little bit, but I am finally installing the 3.50s this week.  We will see how that goes and then figure out what is next.

I am going to try get a little work done before SAAC-50.       

Thank you for the information and pictures, everyone!  I like the look of the Wide Ovals and Polyglas tires, but one tire is the same price as 4 Coopers. It looks like I have a decision to make.

Also, any thoughts around how often tires need to be swapped out.  BF Goodrich says 6-10 years, but if the car is driven less than 1,000 miles a year and is garaged in a temperate climate (CA), will you still experience the same degradation in the rubber? 

The BF Goodrich tires I have on it right now are date coded 2011, but have 95% + tread life still.  The car was not driven much until 2 years ago and probably has less than 1,500 miles on it since the tires were replaced in 2011.     
 

I am looking to purchase a set of new tires this summer.  I have a GT350H, stock Shelby suspension, and original Magnum 500s.

Currently, I am running BF Goodrich 205/70R14.

Anyone running 215/70R14 Cooper Cobras?  Do they rub?

Any other suggestions? 

I drive it weekly on the street and highway.

Nice!! Enjoyed this. 

Thanks for sharing!!  Great video.

Wow. That is awesome. Thank you for sharing the video / pictures. 

Does access sell out or can you pay at the gate the day of the event?

 There is a per-day walk-up rate of $30 per person

Thank you!!

These cars are such a deal right now.  Nowhere to go but up, especially with the fact that they had true Shelby influence. 

I picked up a 2008 Shelby GT from my uncle in Vista Blue.  He bought it new and it only has 16k miles on it.  The car is an absolute blast to drive.
