I haven't even finished watching yet, but... "I'm a little bit of a disruptor in large companies; I don't really work at that well..." I laughed out loud at this charming understatement.
The GT500 did come back in '07 with the 5.4L, facelift in '10, all aluminum 5.4L in '11 and '12. 2013 and 2014 came the "Trinity" 5.8L with 663hp you were referring to. Love the show guys, thank you for the content!!
Damn, i'm so happy you guys bring us a new , fresh, funny, and factual carshow/podcast !! We were in dire need of that! Really, the icons video's are better than topgear, in every way! Thanks alot jason & companions !! Grtz from belgium
As a person who owns a 2022 GT500 and a 2020 GT350R, I agree with pretty much everything said. 350 is an absolute maniac, and 500 is an absolute animal on track. 500 is stupid fast, and handles amazingly. 350 is truly special and pure. Nothing sounds like it. And I have had multiple GT3 and GT3RS.
Honest to goodness, I don’t hit that notification bell for anybody. You guys just earned it. We’re over the moon to have you back Jason! And this new to me cat Derek is pretty cool too! I appreciate his 94 year old soul! I’ve been loathed by fellow millennials for my whole 28 actual years and have been known as 65 years old since I was 12-13
This show is SO much like my friends & I shooting the shit about cars after a afternoon wrenching in your garage. Only thing missing is a couple of beers...get these guys some beer and this show will be perfect.
I'm with Camissa at 5:30. Movies need to be more grounded to reality in shit like this. Especially when this one was trying to be half documentary. I also didn't like the sped up car movements. They looked like Need for Speed 2 on the Playstation 1.
Love the format guys , I really like Jason’s points of view and also commentary, I hope you guys do more car reviews as well and maybe take a couple of road trips , I would love to watch the adventure and review of the cars ....yes I know to much top gear / grand tour but I really like Jason’s opinions and humor
That's right, but it wasn't a road car, and I think only six were built. It was groundbreaking aerodynamically, really a very significant race car. It was also a Ferrari beater at Le Mans, winning the GT class against the previously dominant Ferraris just before the GT40 project came along. With those two cars, Shelby's small racing operation was directly responsible for ending Emperor Enzo Ferrari's reign at Le Mans. Not too bad for a former chicken rancher from rural Texas, with a sketchy ticker.
I would say ( own a 18 gt350).. that the 500 doesnt produce many reproducable times...its a one lap hero car...then no breaks and tires very quickly...unless u want to drag race, the 350 is the better car all round...street to track day and back to daily driving..over again In all honesty i do prefer the manual trans especially that tremec...its out of site good, i know DCT is faster , but so what its No Damn FUN!!! ...good show guys...great job. Gt350 future classic!!!
Funny, not knowing it at the time: I took the "Shelby approach" when I turned my 2000 Mustang GT into a Time Trials Champion. I barely touched the engine but went wild on the suspension, brakes, and steering going as far as electric brake cooling fans, added Panhard rod, spherical bearings instead of bushings, etc, etc. I left the outside appearance completely stock, just to pi$$ off my competition some more. :-) Absolutely hilarious out-cornering M3's and Lotuses in a stock looking Mustang.
Would never even consider the 2020 GT 500 because it doesn't have a manual transmission option. I cannot stomach an automatic, no matter how fast it shifts; it's unacceptable. I couldn't care less how many hundredths of a second faster it would make me. At 33.37, you want "espresso con panna" (espresso with whipped cream), and do not let them daunt you with indignation or weird looks; insist and you shall be rewarded. If they have powdered chocolate, have them sprinkle it over the whipped cream.
Hahahaha I feel Jason 100% on the gas pedal on the Mulsanne Straight, I HATE that stuff! It was a joke! But overall it was an enjoyable movie and it got me to learn more about that era (as a Porsche fan, Ford v. Ferrari used to be the thing that happened before Porsche came and beat them both 😉 ); I just wish Hollywood would stop messing up such boneheadedly basic details in racing movies, they do it EVERY time!
It's quite true the brakes needed to be hot to perform without heavier than usual effort. However, the original equipment 775/15 Goodyear Blue Dot HP Power Cushion tires, though "state of the art" in 1965, most definitely had their shortcomings compared to "anything that's round and black" in 2020.
Mr. Tam hyphen Scott is right, there was a gt350 in 84. I believe it could be had with either the SVO 2.3 liter turbo or a 5.0. The SVO was a separate model and didn’t carry a Shelby name but had the 2.3 turbo.
While we do talk a lot on Instagram I still wish you would have a discord style Podcast too where you can have people come online too. Similar to "Pain Killer Already" but I do enjoy seeing face to face conversations between two guys like you two who have experience/knowledge about these topics. I do watch/listen on 1.5x speed and it's like you are on SO MUCH cocaine
There was the 69 Shelby GT350 & 500. That was a new body style for that year. And that was the last time until 2006 that Ford used the Shelby name on their most powerful Mustang.
Nah, because people are dumb and all they want to know is: can I connect my newest phone in the Hyundai Venue? But, like you Sir, I do wish that this channel gets million of views because the content is sooooo great!!!!
Wow dude. First modern GT500 was in 2007 on the first S197 platform , 5.4 Supercharged Iron block, then was refreshed in 2010, in 2011 when it got an all Aluminum 5.4 , then in 2013 was the trinity 5.8L 662 HP car.
It was the 2013-2014 gt500 that had 662hp. Motor trend on an extremely hot day got it to 196mph. It’s fair to say with a cooler day it would have made the extra power to get it 200.
In reality, Hollywood felt they had to make the relationship between Hunt and Lauda more interesting by portraying Lauda this hard edged angry guy that didn’t get on with Hunt, which in reality isn’t true. Lauda was more likable and they got on well as close friends.
Third comment but I agree the GT350 is more like the original GT350 as a more hardcore track guy vehicle to enjoy driving. The GT500 is a middle finger to everyone to take the vehicle to the most extreme they can while still being a roadcar. It's a ZL1 LE competitor
This may have been posted here, but Derek was right. Ford slapped the GT350 moniker on an 80's mustang. It could be had with either the SVO turbo 4 or the 5.0/302. It was the 20th anniversary edition. It was just a sticker package basically. Shelby was not involved and I believe he sued Ford.
I guess i am in a minority. While i like looking at cars that look like racecars, i want a car that looks a bit more incospicuous and drives better than people think. ->Sleeper cars. I've got an old E63 (with the 6.2L V8) and although people who know about cars know what it is, for the majority of people it's just a big Mercedes-Benz and they don't look twice.
God those jackets are obnoxious!! The GT500 seems like the GT2 RS of the Mustang world, whereas the GT350 would be the GT3, and the GT350R would be the GT3 RS, in my eyes at least.
Considering the GT3 and GT3 RS are N/A and the GT2 RS has forced induction, your analogy makes more sense, I agree. Also, the way the GT500 came just about 1 or 2 years before the s550 goes out is closer to how the gt2 rs was launched.
Criticizing automotive sportswear while yourself wearing a white dress shirt and tie..................... Something about glass houses and rock throwing and all that, with some irony sprinkled in.
@@JasonCammisa that sounds more like it yeah. I know it was something with a shop where more/other work was done but couldn't for the life of me remember what it was haha
The GT500 that came after the "Terminator" Cobra had a weaker engine as far as strength and they ended up using making it a bit better in 2010 by all using the KR engine as a last attempt to get some sales since they really weren't as popular. These were not "Shelby" GT500s as they were not associated with him at all nor the SVT group. The ended up bringing Shelby back on board after the 2011 didn't sell well and the Shelby GT500 came back in full force.
I disagree on the "sexism" of the adverts. They weren't saying anything about the girls being sexy. Hell they even said Sally was sensible and quiet. She did her job effectively with no fuss-- aka she's a good worker and an effective secretary. And the catchline was saying that you don't need to be the CEO to enjoy the cars. A secretary's salary can get you into a mustang.
The 427 were used to complete with the hemis from Dodge in the NHRA and of course NASCAR. The engine was called the cammer. Shelby had nothing to to with the SVO OR the Cobra Mustang. I liked the movie, no it wasn’t historical accurate but it’s Hollywood not much you can do about it. The funny thing is when I went to see it, I was the youngest person watching the movie and I’m 52!
I agree with Jason, modern racing is just boring and way too clinical. Even Le Mans, which is so so sad... Best racing era was 90s touring car racing, particularly BTCC. Bring that back, and people may watch racing again...
If you can, try to watch a bit of the 24 hours of the Nürburgring. There are around 200 cars on the track at the same time if i remember correct, anything from GT-3 cars down to a Renault Clio or a Golf GTI. Lot's of action there.
@@ChaosphereIX I vaguely remember 90's touring car racing (at least the DTM as this was shown in my country too) but in todays times the 24h on the Nürburgring is the most exiting race to watch i can think of. Additionally to the number of different cars, weather always plays a big role, i remember a hailstorm on a small part of the track while it was bone dry on the rest.
Holy shit, did you guys forget the Daytona? Contemporary, ground up car, which many believed would have been faster than the GT40 if Ford brass had allowed it to achieve its potential. They hamstrung it so as not to step all over their baby.
For the record, "Rush" was better than "Ford vs. Ferrari." And, yeah, the changes in reality turned me off. Miles was far more part of the team than the movie shows.
Is discount Adam Sandler going to show up in a gold lamé Corvette jacket, someday? ; - ) I had the same objections regarding the Hollywoodization of the Ford v. Ferrari racing scenes. Ridiculous.
When you wrote the title of this episode, you did not count on one thing. The one thing was a man who cannot retain information that could be of use to the human race. However if its trivia about transportation then step aside and watch me go. Before watching this show I am presenting my knowledge of what it meant. I have not seen Ford vs Ferrari but know the story fairly well. If I am wrong with my answer, I will take my punishment. Please God let my dumb knowledge of all things cars, pull me through again. I am dumbing this down to save space: No name yet for Shelby's new car and Ford was getting fed up the delay. This time Ford would wait no more and Carroll was pressured for the name. He asked a buddy how far his door to the barn area, and was told about 350 feet. Shelby Mustang 350GT was born. (Sorry guys but 350 was not an engine of Ford unless you mean 351 Windsor or Cleveland.) I was very impressive at parties until that bastard Google came along.
Oh you need to give me more info. For what - a daily? A weekend fun car? A track rat? A sex-partner magnet? A tool to run people over whilst sideways leaving a Cars & Coffee?
@@oldcarproblems3332 100% Elise. Less than half the price - and half the weight. Which means tires, brakes, and other consumables last twice as long. The GT350 is genuinely an epic ride. But the Lotus is fully depreciated (bonus!) and far, far more raw. I'd say the Mustang in a second for daily use, but not much can beat an Elise for side-chick thrills. It's no contest.
@@JasonCammisa Your points are noted. Used GT350s can be had in the low-40s, so the price delta isn't quite halt, but I get it. imo, Fords Voodoo is the best sounding engine EVER, and the S550 Mustang is the best looking since the Fox. Yeah, the fucking fox! I'm already married to very reliable, drama-free Land Cruiser, so my side-chick needs to be a real skank, you know? That said, I'll shop for an Elise. Thanks for your input and I appreciate your honesty in a world where most channels regurgitate the same shit over-and-over ( I won't name any names) and provide zero integrity or honest content.
This is It is amazing and ridiculous how americans manipulate history to make their ego feel better, then they tell each other this lies and go on to believe them...
Can‘t wrap my head around how derek can remember all of those dates and numbers I could listen to him about old cars for hours straight 👌
It's nothing special
I haven't even finished watching yet, but... "I'm a little bit of a disruptor in large companies; I don't really work at that well..." I laughed out loud at this charming understatement.

350 steps from Shelby's office.
Feet.
Very true! Thats what I read. He used the 350 steps from one point to another.
Loveeeee this format with you guys! Deff prefer listening with a video
This show is SO much like my friends & I shooting the shit about cars after a afternoon wrenching in your garage.
Only thing missing is a couple of beers...get these guys some beer and this show will be perfect.
Good info and recommend Comer's book on the Shelby Mustang too.
Jason, you need to watch the British Touring Car Championship.
I'm with Camissa at 5:30. Movies need to be more grounded to reality in shit like this. Especially when this one was trying to be half documentary. I also didn't like the sped up car movements. They looked like Need for Speed 2 on the Playstation 1.

@33:07 what about the Shelby Daytona. It wasn't too far off from ground up right?
That's right, but it wasn't a road car, and I think only six were built. It was groundbreaking aerodynamically, really a very significant race car.

Third time listening/watching it today.
My theory is that Shelby knew about the up coming 350 chevy and or wanted to make it bigger than the 327 number.
More people need to know about this channel

Do you guys have matching helmets for the fancy jackets?
No but strangely we had matching underwear on that day.
What was wrong with those old Mustang ads? Did I miss something? BTW: The 427 and 428 were both FEs but different in bore and stroke.
350 comes from the fact that Carroll’s shops were 350 feet apart from each other
Out of curiosity and a somewhat related note to the Shelby movie, did you see Rush a few years ago? If so, what were your thoughts on that one?
I did see it. I remember liking it - but loving it. I cant remember why, though - I should probably re-watch!
JasonCammisa I personally absolutely loves Rush (actually more than Ford v Ferrari, which is still great) but I’m definitely biased being Austrian 😉

This may have been posted here, but Derek was right. Ford slapped the GT350 moniker on an 80's mustang. It could be had with either the SVO turbo 4 or the 5.0/302. It was the 20th anniversary edition. It was just a sticker package basically. Shelby was not involved and I believe he sued Ford.

350 steps to shelbys office
The 65’ GT350 was too extreme and raw and now is coveted for it’s purity? Looks like the 2018 Manual Camaro ZL1 1LE will be a buy and hold.
It happens often. A car that's "too extreme" when it was new winds up being the perfect classic car for occasional use. Hold onto that Alfa 4C.
350 feet between Shelby's buildings.
Ford versus Ferrari was ok, but it was pretty disappointing from an accuracy standpoint after how brilliant Rush was.
So basically, new GT500 and GT350 are the equivalent of the Porsche GT2 vs the GT3?

I have not seen Ford vs Ferrari but know the story fairly well. If I am wrong with my answer, I will take my punishment.
Please God let my dumb knowledge of all things cars, pull me through again. I am dumbing this down to save space: No name yet for Shelby's new car and Ford was getting fed up the delay. This time Ford would wait no more and Carroll was pressured for the name. He asked a buddy how far his door to the barn area, and was told about 350 feet. Shelby Mustang 350GT was born. (Sorry guys but 350 was not an engine of Ford unless you mean 351 Windsor or Cleveland.) I was very impressive at parties until that bastard Google came along.
Jason, current GT350 or your Elise? GO...
Oh you need to give me more info. For what - a daily? A weekend fun car? A track rat? A sex-partner magnet? A tool to run people over whilst sideways leaving a Cars & Coffee?
@@JasonCammisa side-chick weekend car, dude. One or two track days a year. Mostly backroads and leaving C&C without lifting.
@@oldcarproblems3332 100% Elise. Less than half the price - and half the weight. Which means tires, brakes, and other consumables last twice as long. The GT350 is genuinely an epic ride. But the Lotus is fully depreciated (bonus!) and far, far more raw. I'd say the Mustang in a second for daily use, but not much can beat an Elise for side-chick thrills. It's no contest.
@@JasonCammisa Your points are noted. Used GT350s can be had in the low-40s, so the price delta isn't quite halt, but I get it. imo, Fords Voodoo is the best sounding engine EVER, and the S550 Mustang is the best looking since the Fox. Yeah, the fucking fox! I'm already married to very reliable, drama-free Land Cruiser, so my side-chick needs to be a real skank, you know? That said, I'll shop for an Elise. Thanks for your input and I appreciate your honesty in a world where most channels regurgitate the same shit over-and-over ( I won't name any names) and provide zero integrity or honest content.
Hey Jason,can you use more foul language ?
Bet I do...
I'm reluctant to see the movie. I've never seen a good racing movie. They just piss me off.
Le Mans with Steve McQueen and Rush are pretty good.
discount adam sandler 😆😂🤣
GT-H not terribly valuable..... ok. Usually they go for 100-400k

Careful, the anti-fanboy-fanboys will come for you for saying that about the Zupra.
This is It is amazing and ridiculous how americans manipulate history to make their ego feel better, then they tell each other this lies and go on to believe them...
