Ford Racing’s 5.0 liter “Cammer” engine powers this race version of the Shelby GT500. It is just one of many numbers that this Shelby GT500 uses to tell the difference between the avid racer and the coinsure.
When they named this shelby a Professional Road Racer, they did it for a reason, as it is no casual observer. This is a vehicle that lives to race. In fact, it was purpose-built for that very reason. A study in performance, it honors the innovation of Carroll Shelby in the best way it knows how: By stepping onto the track and win.
