Timothy HookerJan 11, 2013 dang I gotta get n on this...I would be stoked
Nate MataJan 11, 2013 Last year was a red gt500 .. I think it was tuned to over 600 by ford racing
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 What car was it last year?
Lead PeddalinJan 11, 2013 They did this last year too.

Ken GreenJan 21, 2013 I tried logging on for the Auction there for two days, had a very hard Time tried for HOURS.. So I thought it just wasn't meant to be, was bummed out there for a little bit, But more I thought about it, More I realized I did win, because this Auction was all about those GR8 Kids!!!! and They WON, and to have all those gr8 people helping out all those kids!!! Was really something Else !!! Thanks Gu...
Greg KenerlyJan 12, 2013 Really? An auto? I like new gen autos. They are usually far better shifters than the regular Joe...but that's not the point is it? It's about being in total control. If it has 2 doors it needs a manual. Imagine shifting 800hp...Daydreaming.
Jacob BurfordJan 11, 2013 I wonder how it does in the corners? Good or a big mess? Anyone know? Not that it matters a huge amount for a muscle car like this!
Matthew MoellerJan 11, 2013 I own this exact same car, all the tacky stick on parts just detract from its design. Stock owns this thing, sorry haggerty.
Timothy HookerJan 11, 2013 if I had this car and only a left arm I would figure out how to shift with my teeth...manual is the only way to go
Author Norman R. ColsonJan 11, 2013 Funny, Carl (*sarcasm) millions of people drive automatic muscle cars and sport cars at least half of them is men are they pussies too? God being an elitest must be so hard for you
Lou GuerreroJan 11, 2013 Actually David, Carroll's ideal Cobra is a narrow MkI with a 289 and an auto. His words.
Justin RouthJan 11, 2013 Hahaha said it perfectly Carl
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 The Boss 302 is not available in an auto either. Look if you need an auto get a GT. I was just saying the boss 302's engine would be better for DD-ing.
Author Norman R. ColsonJan 11, 2013 *correction
Gt has a lot of them.... But no option for others what gives
Author Norman R. ColsonJan 11, 2013 Carroll Shelby don't care... I said there should be an option for auto like if u pay for it from a dealer. And how come the 302 is auto but not Shelby? Biased much!?
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 And I think it's pretty awesome and unique that this car is ONLY available in a manual as it should be. Make this an auto and Caroll Shelby would roll over in his grave.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Worn tolerances can't handle boost, or the lag on the pulley drive. A Boss 302 would make a better DD, my dads gets 25-26 mpg on the highway.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 An auto would be nice for drag racing and being a daily driver. But first of all, supercharged cars don't make good daily drivers. N/A cars do though. Superchargers are quite harsh on engines with high miles.
Tin NguyenJan 11, 2013 I'm sure it not expensive to convert to auto.
Tin NguyenJan 11, 2013 I wish they make it auto too cuz I'm a para and have to drive with hand controls.
Timothy HookerJan 11, 2013 haha. this in an auto would be blasphemy!
John JenkinsJan 11, 2013 well, if you want a daily driver, I suggest you buy yourself a Prius, it comes with an auto, great mpg, and plenty of storage space for all the groceries you could possibly desire.
Author Norman R. ColsonJan 11, 2013 I said it so you can curse me all you want this car should have an auto option. you want to enjoy shifting and being purists fine. i want a daily driver, it should be auto. shifting is too much work for me.
Jordan JacksonJan 11, 2013 What kind I of blasphemy is this?!?!?! Make this an auto!? Your nuts! Lol
David ParentiJan 12, 2013 Chances are, if you have the dough to buy a lightning or a ram SRT-10, you don't give a F about the price of gas
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 @Aaron. Haha yeah my dad has a Ram SRT-10 as one of his daily drivers and it gets horrible gas mileage. Although not the worst mileage of the cars he has lol
Aaron CrispJan 11, 2013 I want a Ram SRT10, but then I look at gas consumption... Lol
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 @David. Yeah you're right. That supercharger allows for so much torque. Love it
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 Must've been a terrible driver. Cuz I easily won over the SRT-8. About a 40 to 110 and it was pretty convincing win. Granted I did get the hit but still. Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races
Aaron CordrochJan 11, 2013 Lol @ Tyler. I have a challenger r/t with minor mods. Blew a lightning's doors off.. Seriously, he needed new doors when I got finished with him.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Tyler, even from a dead stop you would've taken him. The lightning makes great low end torque with that S/C.
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 @Robert. Have you ever even driven a 2nd gen Lightning? They are ridiculously fast and easy to upgrade. Both the Lightning and SRT-10 Ram are crazy fast and not just for trucks. Mine is near stock and I ripped a Challenger SRT-8 from a 40 roll
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Tyler, that white lightning looks pretty sick. Looks like its on bags and tucking 22's or 24's.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 They have totally different interiors; door panels, gauge cluster, seats...
Suspension is engineered to handle, the lightning sits about 4-5 inches lower. The engines are two different animals. Different frames. I can go on all day.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Lightning was far from a turd. There isn't much that is the same with a lightning as a regular F150 maybe the cab and fenders. They are almost completely different.
Robert YoungJan 11, 2013 Man those lightnings were turds bro. Just like the Chevy 454SS. Soooo much potential but they screwed us on purpose.
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 Just want to give a shout out to the white Lightning in the background :)
Greg KenerlyJan 12, 2013 I don't think people actually win things like this. If I did I'd sell it and buy an SUV a truck and a Mustang GT...2015 that is...
Wyatt GordonJan 12, 2013 Im loving those wheels, anyone know what they are?
Aaron CrispJan 11, 2013 My girlfriend won some make up from Covergirl. That's about it in my experiences haha
Aaron CrispJan 11, 2013 I knew a guy who won $50 at McDs monopoly...
Drew HumphreyJan 11, 2013 I won a pencil once for getting bingo in French class.
Yep.
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Oh man that sucks! They always publish the winners of those things. I wonder if they are just actors lol. I won a 400$ BMX bike in a raffle. I hope this one is legit.
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 I sort of won something from the McDonalds monopoly. I got three of the four railroads needed and then about a week after it was over I found the final piece on the ground. Pretty upsetting
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 I've never met or heard of anyone who's won a national contest. I won a local contest once.
Tyler TarboxJan 11, 2013 Haha I will be too. And I'm sure this will be one of the entries for it
David ParentiJan 11, 2013 Looks like I'll be Hagerty Fantasy-bidding!
dang I gotta get n on this...I would be stoked
Last year was a red gt500 .. I think it was tuned to over 600 by ford racing
What car was it last year?
They did this last year too.
