TEAM SHELBY 50th CELEBRATION NORTHEAST

[30 PSI SHADOW]

apparently the shelby dodges are included with this event. It looks to be a real fun time! 2 days of road racing, a poker run/cruise and a car show with a shelby celebration.

Anyone have more info? Anyone planning on attending?

50th Celebration East | Team Shelby Northeast (http://www.teamshelbynortheast.com/50th-Celebration.html)

Pretty close
I might have to check that out
WOW only $20 for dragracing
but....... only open for 2hrs.....too bad it isn't 1/4 mile to put a hurting on the Fords

[BadAssPerformance]

Team Shelby puts on a good event, had a blast at the 2 that Craig and I went to in Vegas :nod:

Surprized at the addition of an event... so they have Vegas in March, Carlisle in May, and Kansas in June now? And the only one Shelby Dodges are included entirely in is Vegas... at the new East Coast event, our Shelby Dodges are probably allowed at the track and actual shelby events, but probably not at the Carlisle Ford Nationals.

Looking at prices, they appear to be every bit as spendy as the Vegas ones :(

OK, I gotta ask... How many folks are willing to spend this kinda cash for a track day? Think of it... if we could get 50+ racers to spend $500-$700 each, we'll host SDAC at any track we want! LOL! :D

[omni_840]

Awesome! It's actually partly in WV (Summit Point), too bad that is not even close to me. Although I might make the trip :)

[T-Bohn]

Summit point is a fast track, the straight is LLOONNGG!!! The carousel is a lot of fun as well. I have only been at the track on the bikes never in the car.

[168glhs1986]

That looks like a good way to spend a weeeknd. Here is the scheudle for #168 as of today.....Pickup from paint on April 28th, Pickup from Cage Man May 11th, Deliver to Slowe Racing on May 12th.....That might be possible! You bringing the CSX Bill?

[30 PSI SHADOW]

first got to find out if its true that the SDs are welcome at carlisle...

i wont bother with team shelby stuff untill the SDs are truly recognized.

[Turbo3Iroc]

I was wondering if we would be welcome at Carlisle being a traditional Ford only event. I'm not sure if I am interested in the track leg yet but the poker run sounds interesting.

I'd be very surprized if SD's were allowed, and if there were classes for SD's, but let me know what you find out.

FWIW, the "Vegas" TS event does allow SD's, but that is the only one I know for sure that does. Also, pretty sure the TS definition of "SD" includes only #'rd Whittier cars, so my Shelby Z or Kelly's IROC R/T or your T-III Rampage would not be welcome. :(

The TS Midwest/Topeka event does not allowd SD's. We asked if we could participate 4 years ago, and details "why" were not disclosed, however pretty sure it is Ford's decision as they contribute funding to the event. :(

Also, FTR, TS members are welcome to bring SF's to SDAC events :nod:

I'd be taking my GLHS if I attend. I'm sure Bill would be bringing his CSX as well.

[BadAssPerformance]

Right on, I know you guys have #'d cars... So do I. It's the point that those that dont, but still have cars that fit into the Shelby Dodge family cannot

[Turbo3Iroc]

True. We do need to verify that our cars are welcome before putting up any money.

[30 PSI SHADOW]

Ok, just got off the phone with John Keller the regional rep. All the questions have been answered. YES. Totally embraced and welcomed. Had a very nice conversation, what a super guy to work with.As for carlisle, he is working on setting up our classes for shelby dodges and he was going to call me back. As for just numbered cars, its not the case. if it is sold as a shelby numbered or not, it is welcome. So daytonas chargers,omnis,ETC. Nothing in stone yet, but hoping to bring something special from carrolls dodge collection along for the ride.
I told him about or little forum, and how a annoucement could be made here. Im sure JT, you will be contacted on this subject..


This sounds like a real fun time.............

Thanks for the leg work and update Bill! This is cool :clap: So Rampages, etc. (that were not branded as a "Shelby" but fall into our SDAC family) are are welcome at Carlisle too!?

[30 PSI SHADOW]

sorry i didnt get back to this tread but im working 12 hour shifts ..ugg. anyway yeah, he said that the idea is to get as many shelbys there to break the record. turbo dodges are welcome but they wont count toward the record. as long as it was sold under the shelby name #ed, daytonas chargers etc, they will be counted. but yes you can bring an omni glh, rampage,etc..

[85shelbycharger]

Hmmmm sounds like a great event! I'm seriously contemplating this right now!

[30 PSI SHADOW]

how many of you were thinking of going to this? You got to admit, this is a great way to get our cars noticed!! So, How many?

[85shelbycharger]

I'm interested but just looked at the cost. For single day show entry through Team Shelby is $125 plus the $40 Carlisle fee. That's $165 for a car show... unless if I'm misunderstanding it all?

[contraption22]

Bringing Chryslers to a Ford show reminds me of some saying I once heard about flatulence in a house of God.

Actually it includes a celebration party (food and drink included) poker run, and goodie bag,decals etc: need to read the link in the first post...

this may be true, BUT with that attitude,our cars will NEVER get respect they deserve.

besides, this may be a ford show but this includes anything that had to do with shelby, vipers, series one. etc

[89FerrariShelby]

I would have to seriously consider it if only for the track part. However I do not have a #'d car, just a lowly Daytona shelby....so i'm betting I'm not allowed. Hope some the #'d guys get out there, it'd be neat to have a presence there.

[T-Bohn]

I have been giving it some thought. I do have a lot that needs done to the car to get it on the road.

Your Daytona would be welcomed there. Baker said that the person he spoke with about the event, said that any Dodge that was sold with the Shelby name on it would be allowed (i.e. Daytona Shelby, Shelby Z, Shelby Charger, and all the #'ed cars)

My bad on that, I didn't realize it included some extra perks. Friday night Shelby bash would be fun. I'm going to give it some serious though.

My thoughts exactly. I think it would be really cool to have a decent representation of Shelby Dodge's in attendance. So that if nothing else, some of the population would be able to look at and realize that my cars are not Mustangs! Shelby did in fact work with Dodge! Haha.

[ScottD]

Wow combining a Team Shelby event with a Carlisle event - good idea.

Maybe some day we can try that with SDAC and Chryslers at Carlisle.

This looks like an interesting event, maybe I'll go to this, it is close for me.

[contraption22]

I understand what you are saying. I think the Summit Point event and even the drag stip would be a great place for our cars to earn some respect. I was mostly referring to the idea of the average Ford fan wondering why Chrysler K-cars were admitted on to the show field at the Ford Nationals.

[89FerrariShelby]

Your Daytona would be welcomed there. Baker said that the person he spoke with about the event, said that any Dodge that was sold with the Shelby name on it would be allowed (i.e. Daytona Shelby, Shelby Z, Shelby Charger, and all the #'ed cars)

Not going to lie, that makes this event very tempting...will probably depend on how she holds up at the dyno day May 5th. I'd hate to represent the SDAC community with a broke down pile as all the fords go whizzing by....

All the shelbys will be placed on the field upfront and on their own sections. Once we get a feel for how many of us are going, then I can let John know.

Cool. I hope it'sa big turnout. I'd like to come and hang out. Any excuse to knock back a few beers with friends.

[168glhs1986]

Man, it wil be tight for car #168 to make it but I'll be there if it's ready. A lot of things have to fall into place first. I'll know more by Mid to late May, lol.

[30 PSI SHADOW]

Can't put the cage in after?

[168glhs1986]

Can't put the cage in after?

Paint shop and Cage shop are both in Ohio. I could put the cage in after SDAC, but I feel confident they both will be done on time. If anything has to wait, it can be the cam swap and a few other misc. items. But that could probably be done in between this and SDAC.

[BadAssPerformance]

If I had a nickel for every cam swap I've seen in the parking lot at an SDAC event :thumb:

[30 PSI SHADOW]

these are the cars that will count towards the guinness book of records for the most shelbys in one place. it doesnt mean that other cars are not welcome. they are.As time gets closer, im sure it will be more detailed.

1)Bill Baker 1989 Shelby CSX (maybe my rampage)

[89FerrariShelby]

Hmmm...i'm going to have to see where the finances are when i get back from my trip.

But there's a good chance i'll go (i'd really like to). Since either car can make it, i'll say i'd prefer to take the Daytona, but the Spirit is always down to go when the Daytona is up on stilts...

[denviola]

Bill, I'm going to give this some serious thought. Put me down as a possible with my 89 CSX. Do we need to be Team Shelby members? Don't think so, just checking.
Wondering what would be in the goodie bag to rate a $75 upcharge for the goodie bag and 50th stickers from the base entry.
Doesn't matter, just thinking out loud.

Bill, I'm ready to register. Any thoughts before registering?
Looks like option 3, the Carlisle event and parade will be $250.
I read the linked thread on Team Shelby, 20 pages of "where is the info?". Reads like the SDAC announcement threads, many anxious people LOL!
There is a post in Team Shelby that is asking if any of us are coming. I'm trying to figure out what the 50th decals look like, cause the registration asks for white or black. Dunno what works on a red CSX.
I may set my trailer up in an adjacent lot (as we do for the Chrysler event) so we have overnight crash and bash space.
UNK

[30 PSI SHADOW]

probably something like this..


38052

[89FerrariShelby]

man...i kinda really want to go to this...but not sure i can take the time off....damn...

[ScottD]

So the cheapest option is $125 and includes the following:

1. Shelby Cruise from Winchester, VA to Carlisle, PA. Ending in a grand entrance to the Carlisle Ford Nationals.

2. One ticket to the Friday night "Shelby 50th Golden Celebration Party" Live entertainment, celebrity guests, food and beverage included. This will be an EPIC Shelby event!

3. Exclusive access to Quarter Aces Drag-O-Way ($20.00 per. Car entrance fee will apply)

4. One ticket to Saturday's Shelby car show @ Carlisle including lunch, entertainment and Guinness World Records documenting history in the making. (Team Shelby and Carlisle Events are working with Guinness World Records to set the first record for the most Shelbys gathered in one place.) This is sure to be a historic Shelby event.

5. One ticket to the Team Shelby Down Town Carlisle Parade Party. Hors d' oeuvres are included. (Cash Bar)
(To Drive your car in the parade you must register and pay a $10.00 fee with Carlisle.)

[denviola]

So the cheapest option is $125 and includes the following:



Almost -
The way I read it you still have to pay the $40 to Carlisle to participate, plus $10 more for the parade. I'm doing it, may not get the chance again.
UNK
PS saw the pictures of your 86 S you posted on FB. Sweet, can't wait to see it in person.

exactly. It should be fun, and mingle with a different crowd too. may never get to do it again!

[denviola]

Registered today, doing the event starting with the Winchester to Carlisle cruise. Will have to call Carlisle to register. Will not let me leave the car class field empty online, and when you list Shelby all the classes are Mustangs. Read there are 400 spaces reserved for Shelbys in the infield. Who else has reserved?
UNK

[89FerrariShelby]

Wish I could make it, but between making SDAC this year (fingers crossed) and Cambodia i'm just about all used up on Vacay time. Have a great time guys and represent for us SD's!!! I'd just embarass us anyways...probably spend most of my time on the side of the road =P

[30 PSI SHADOW]

Bump....

[ATaylorRacing]

This reminds me of when I raced with the then 12 second Omni GLH Turbo at Indy in the Shelby American Auto Club Nationals back in the 1980s. I was runner up and was paid....NOTHING! BUT.....a certain lowly 84 Horizon won the Corvette Nationals in 1993 and 1995 and got paid well...also at Indy. I am always on the look out for races that national car clubs hold in which any make is allowed so I can cause a bit of embarresment! If any of you guys hear of these events, let me know please. June 2nd I'll be racing for points in the United Manul Transmission Racers series at Mountain Park Dragway in KY (about 265 miles from home) and the next day I'll be racing for poiints at Indy!

[denviola]

So, who else besides me has signed up, and where/when are you joining the event?
I'm driving to Summit point for the start of the poker run to Carlisle on Friday and am registered for the whole weekend show and the parade as well.

[168glhs1986]

I haven't signed up and it's probably too late. I'd like to do the poker run on Friday and the car show / parade. Let me see if spots are still open.

[denviola]

Just needing to know if anyone is coming to determine if I'm gonna bring my camper to the spot where we camp during the Chrysler show. So far there is no need. Looks like I'll crash at my sister's place on the other side of Carlisle.
UNK

[168glhs1986]

Why doesn't SDAC have a trailer like this? JT can you work on that?

Plus they had 2 hot Team Shelby chicks walking around barely dressed. Didn't have the balls to take their picture next to my car. Chicken Sh!t.

It's pretty cool hearing the super charger whine of the Shelby GT350's. A lot of newer boss 302's there also. Wouldn't mind having either of those mustangs.

Can't believe the Cobra was scared to come out and play with the GLHS but at least we got together. I had to work yesterday so I missed racing around the track but did make it out today to take some pics. Love anything Shelby, even the Shelby series 1, lol.

[30 PSI SHADOW]

Nice! Keep the pics rolling bud!!!!

[denviola]

Mike, did you run or just visit at Summit point? I met up with the TS group there with my CSX Friday morning for the poker run back to Carlisle and stayed with them until the wrap up party late Saturday night. I'll be sending an article for the Up Front SDAC newsletter.
The sweetest part of the weekend for me was Saturday morning. When the big parade of Shelbys came into the show field on Friday, the local newpaper took a pictue of me cleaning my car. Saturday morning one of the vendors told me I was on the cover of the Carlisle Sentinel newspaper, and one of the TS members gave me a copy. The Dodge Shelby steals the cover at the Ford event! A guy from work posted it on facebook.
BTW the scantily clad ladies were at all the weekend events.

I wanted to do this also but I'm trying to get the Daytona rolling for SDAC.

That was great you got on the front page Denny! Were you the only FWD car in the parade and show field?

Hey, Denny it was great having you at Carlisle. Your CSX was more the talk of the show then you know. The Mach owners enjoyed talking to you and wished you could have made it to one of the cookouts.

I talked to John Clor today and he really enjoyed talking to you yesterday. He told me he used to run a Shadow in autocross events before going to work for Ford. He loved the fact that you brought the CSX and that you also have the GLHS. He truly is a car guy and loves talking cars. For his celebrity he picked a 99 Mustang GT that had over 200,000 miles on it when the owners restored it. It is still being used for Daily Driver Duties.

I'm glad the majority of the Ford owners treated you with respect and apologize for the idiots that made smart comments. Unfortunately every group has their idiots. :(

The local group wants you to bring the CSX on the Crab Run in August.

Would you guys believe Unk signed a Ford? I'll let him share the rest of the story.

Why doesn't SDAC have a trailer like this? JT can you work on that?

Plus they had 2 hot Team Shelby chicks walking around barely dressed. Didn't have the balls to take their picture next to my car. Chicken Sh!t.

It's pretty cool hearing the super charger whine of the Shelby GT350's. A lot of newer boss 302's there also. Wouldn't mind having either of those mustangs.

Can't believe the Cobra was scared to come out and play with the GLHS but at least we got together. I had to work yesterday so I missed racing around the track but did make it out today to take some pics. Love anything Shelby, even the Shelby series 1, lol.

Did you get to see the Shelby 1000? Over 1000hp and is streetable. For meanly $250k you too can own one. 2013 GT500 is 662hp and is capable of over 200mph with a base price of $54k. Not bad for a 200mph street car.

The negative comments were very few, and usually said by someone passing by that didn't want to look at the car. I was extremely pleased that the CSX got so much attention, and the turbo-dodges were the "I used to have" rides from the attendees. That statement was many times followed by "wish I still had it". It's all good. Many people asked where they could get one. I gave contact info for Billy Lofink about 12 times, since he has one for sale.
Give me the info on the crab run for this year. I was apprehensive about coming before, but not now after meeting some of the group. Will go if I can.
One of the GT 500s found the tire wall at Summit Point, and damaged the passenger door and a few other things. He was having the Shelby owners sign the door in sharpie. He invited me to sign as well, so I did and told him the SRT-4 hood story from SDAC Topeka in 2006. He plans on bringing the door skin to future Shelby events.
On the way home late Saturday night a guy in a Mach with a supercharger passed me, then downshifted to see if I was interested. I downshifted to fourth just for fun, then to third as there was a traffic light ahead. He downshfted as well and it was obvious he was ready. As he lagged behind the light we were rolling toward turned green, so I downshifted to second and rolled through the light. He thought I was on it, so the next sound I heard was a whine and an ear-splitting roar. I stepped on it very briefly, and let off. He recognized that I wasn't going to play so he let off as well, although at that time he was way ahead. Caught up to him at the next light as he was turning and told him "Very Nice". The sound of horsepower is awesome.

Got about 30 pics, and the TS guys just sent me a couple more. I'll post a few as teasers, and post an album as well. This one was taken by a TS member right away when I arrived at Summit Point Friday morning.
Not counting on this event for next year as this Carlisle Ford event featured the Shelby 50th anniversary celebration. Without a special event, not likely we get invited to Carlisle Ford Nationals. Thinking there will be more northeast events at other venues that we will be invited to.

There were officially 382 Shelbys at the 50th Anniversary NE celebration, and we all got certificates for the largest recognized gathering of Shelby vehicles. I was one of 2 Shelby Dodges. The other is in the pics below, a 1 of 1 Shelby Viper on display.
