Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords Magazine Completes Drag Testing Of The New Limited Edition 2008 Sheby GT500KR At Englishtown Raceway On Mickey Thompson ET Street

06/16/08

Stow, OH - The team at Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords was eager to test drive the new Limited Edition 2008 Shelby GT500KR, and wanted to see just how well this Shelby could perform on the drag strip. So they fitted it with a set of Mickey Thompson ET Street tires (Part #3743) and took to Englishtown Raceway to see just how fast this Shelby could go. The 100% factory stock Shelby ran 11.58 at 122 mph, making it the fastest drag test of any regular-production Mustang in history.

Watch for the feature story on the new 2008 Shelby GT500KR, one of only 1,750 that will be built, in the September 2008 issue of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, published by Source Interlink Media, formerly Primedia, or visit http://www.musclemustangfastfords.com .
