inventive display of cargo containers and race cars at the Ford Racing area at SEMA



 I'm not sure what the info is on the above car is, but I guess it's the 1901 Ford to represent the past of Ford Racing
 This is the 67 GT500 Shelby Mustang that they are raffling off, you have to buy tickets to get a chance to win. http://www.winthemustangs.com/ is an "Enter to win" a 1967 Shelby GT 500 and 2012 Ghelby GT 500, and both were at the Ford Racing area at SEMA but you have to go to their website and buy tickets

 These Fiestas from mlast year are not representative of what you can buy from Ford Racing, as the Fiesta is now only available in a 4 dr. They didn't point that out though. Why they went away from the small 2 door is a mystery I've not heard any press releases about. Now in 2012 the only Ford you can buy in a 2 door is the Mustang, or trucks.

Blue Collar Customs of Sacramento were chosen by James Hetfiled to build him another vehicle, first they built him STR8 Edge the purple truck, now this 36 Ford

Velosters were at SEMA in good numbers, and big variety due to giving them to customizers before production cars were sold to the public









No idea what made them think that a full tool box would be a good thing to have in the back seat. I do like the racing seatbelts though



bitchin' hood

I doubt that the car ever spends much time at speeds high enough to make the wing of any use. I believe that the info I heard was speeds above 80mph would only begin to create a downforce of any significance





Does anyone at all actually have a dj setup in their car that they use with any reasonable frequency enough to give customizers this notion that making the prototypes and show cars with all this turntable and audio gear is a viable selling point? Am I the only one that has never seen or heard of a mobile DJ just backing up a vehicle into an event and making money with that?




there it is, different rims, different looks, and different uses for a reasonably good looking econo box. Automobile magazine just compared it to the VW beetle, and the Mini Cooper, and found the Veloster the best buy and best suspension. I found it to be the best in gas mileage and factory installed stereo and touch screen AV center
