Oh, I know. I'm just excited that something typical of Ford, like "GT500 plans scrapped," wasn't happening.

I'm thinking this is another corporate marketing scheme, but you have to admit, the car wouldn't have gotten the Shelby name without the ol' man's okay to do so. This is also probably the LAST vehicle that's EVER going to be made sporting his name from the factory. Didn't Super Ford do an in-depth article on the assembly of one? Pretty ballsy of Ford to allow 9psi of boost, considering how conservative they've been with it in the past. I'm just wondering how much more it'd take before popping.
