Count me out. I wanted to attend and my SuperSnake is in Vegas so it would have been perfect but in light of the attempt by Shelby to Trademark SAAC and what appears to be a attempt to destroy SAAC I can't see myself doing anything that has to do with Shelby's new ventures. What should be great times in Shelby history appears to be bad times with ugly legal fights ahead where everyone loses. I hope fences can be mended but I am starting to doubt it.
I am sorry to hear that, I know nothing about the legal issues with Saac, what i know is that I am here to make Team Shelby I fun and great place to be, this event will be a wonderful event, for everyone that attends. Maybe we will see you at one of the other events in the future, We are also doing OK and Dearborn in 2008 and last years Dearborn was a great time,. Is your Super Snake being done at SAI, I just love the look of the Super Snake, maybe when I am there I can get a look at it for you. Maybe a photo.....
Oh, very cool, so i will be the one taking photos for my self of the car That is a nice photo, I am debating on getting the new Super Snake. But i would love to have that Super Snake. That is a great photo of both the cars. :
Whats to debate, looks like an awesome car. If my vote counts I'd say go for it. What color is your GT500 you are considering converting?
We will be getting the KR and will be taking it to some of the Team Shelby shows as a Show car, I would really like to up it to th 725 and some of the other options that come with the Super Snake, I want the Vapor ( silver) with blue stripes. The question is do you leave the KR original or do you upgrade it to the Super Snake, certainly would be few around like that. This is my debate, not one I can say that i hate having.
Bob Gaines had convinced me at SEMA to come to the Oklahoma event but it is right at the end of Hot Rod Power Tour and another show in Detroit I have already committed to. Maybe next year in Oklahoma.
I hear you Charley! This lawsuit BS has taken the wind out of my sails too. Nobody wins with this crap. This $tuff is not hard to figure out. Sorry if I offended anyone. Tony I
With all the crap thats unfolding on a daily basis between SAAC, Shelby and Team Shelby, My wife and I decided to pass. I'm a huge SHELBY fan BUT, I can't seem to get this bad taste out of my mouth with whats being done to SAAC. Without SAAC's help, I wouldn't have the Shelby I have in my garage today. Sorry. Jim
I just wanted to make sure that everyone knew about the event, so that those that wanted to attend can have the chance, for those of you that are planing on getting the tickets I look forward to meeting you. If you have any questions for me about these tickets or any thing else please feel free to contact me at sharone@teamshelby.com. Sharon
Sharon...I wish you luck but I sit and wonder if any of the money raised by your event will be used in the legal battle against SAAC. I will be donating to SAAC's legal fund and now I'm wondering if my membership money in the new club is also going to be used against SAAC. You are caught in the middle. This sucks.
The money from Team Shelby, will stay in the club, for events for track for new publications for special events and things like that. For the Las Vegas event we are only charging 699 for three days including two nights at a hotel like the Bellagio and three days of events including two parties , two tracks, car show and more, Really this means that the pretty much means that the 699 for the tickets covers the cost of the the hotel, Shelby will be putting in alot more money for this event then will be coming in. Robert and I started the S197 Shelby that has now partnered with Shelby and is now Team Shelby for the love of the cars and the Man. We still have the same passion that we did when we first started and wanted to share that with others that felt the same way we did. .
The tickets go up for sale in about 45 minutes http://www.stangsunleashed.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=13367&st=0&start=0
