Default Shelby boys lay down challenge to new Nicky Camaro

I was talking to some of the Shelby head honcho's at the recent Shelby bash and the discussion turned to the new Nicky Camaro's and the Shelby guys want a grudge match as soon as this new Chebbie is up for it and ready for an old fashioned butt whipping by their 725 HP Super snake. They are even willing to send a snake to the SCR this year to administer the butt whipping on Stefano's home court.

Last I heard Stefano was seen in his office curled up on the floor in the fetal position with his thumb in his mouth??

got a feeling the snake will slither away and hide as soon as the NICKEY turned the corner into the Pit area

The Ford Super Worm sure won't stand a chance with you driving, that's for sure. I'll just let the Nickey Super Camaro do my talking

You had better get on the phone to Oshawa and crack the whip. From what the tool and die makers on the project are saying, there just doesn't seem to be any drive from upper management to get this thing rolling. Line workers have been back to work since early November, so the wages are going out, and apparently there aren't very many cars coming off the line yet. That's over three months. Over the years I've been through 7-8 fairly major model changes in Oshawa and have never seen anything like this. I was a tool room lead hand during two of them. Something strange going on here I think.

I am forced to admit that yes with me driving the snake turns a 16.5 but since Chevy can't seem to even produce one Camaro for sale to the public that should be fast enough.

I think we need to get a hold of Kana to see if she is up for the driving chores.

As I recall there is already a 2002 Nickey that is about 1200 hp ? And the Pooper Snake has 725 ?

Oh how soon we forget Charley? Isn't that you driving the original pooper snake in all the magazines and didn't you make an obscene profit when you sold the original pooper snake and now your back on the Chevy bandwagon after your love affair with Fords is over? BTW Bob Perkins now has your old 63 wagon, He put a bunch of NOS parts on it under the hood.

Well you have to give Clill some credit for changing his ways.

Those Shelby guys can read right? The Nickey Bill Thomas Alliance built this one and it is ready to take on all comers. Nickey Camaro
