I just purchased my 2020 Shelby Cobra GT500 for my birthday the end of August. I have been itching for a track day since day one and been racking up those miles to hit that 1k track break in. On September 13th I finally got to take the Cobra out for it's first adventure and release the beast!
We had a great time at Buttonwillow Raceways with Speed Ventures. They ran a great program and we can't wait to go back!
The Shelby performed flawlessly as expected and I was way more comfortable out there than I thought I was going to be. By our 3rd round I had made it up to the 5th fastest out of 20 and by our last one I was already 2nd fastest.
I had a blast trying to chase down that red BMW, he was in my sights the entire time! Maybe next time hehe! He obviously finished 1st and I hit 2nd. I didn't show our last 2 laps where we caught up with everyone else and lapped about a dozen of them.
I hope you enjoy this ride along! It's my first edit in a long time but I figured I'd put my FPV skills to some good use!
Listen for my cheer squad in the beginning haha, thanks to everyone who came out to scream their lungs out (my mom and wife were the loudest, go figure).
Stay tuned for more cool GT500 stuff and please like and subscribe, we'll sub back!
