Page 9 highlights

Driving your Shelby GT500 assembly with a very durable friction material with high torque capability. Depending on your driving technique, the smoothness of how the vehicle reacts to clutch engagement may be different from other vehicles you have driven. This behavior is typical of a cera-metallic clutch and is not indicative of any abnormal issues with your vehicle. DRIVING YOUR SHELBY GT500 THROUGH WATER The Ford Shelby GT500 has aerodynamic devices attached to the underbody designed to help control airflow for superior performance. Therefore, the driver must be especially careful to avoid driving through deep or standing water. If driving through deep or standing water is unavoidable, proceed very slowly. Never drive through water that is higher than the bottom of the wheel rims. GROUND CLEARANCE Note: Because of low vehicle ground clearance, use caution when approaching curbs/curb stops from the front and rear as vehicle damage could occur. WASHING YOUR SHELBY GT500 Do not drive your vehicle through an automated, commercial car wash due to the vehicle's low ground clearance, tire width and track. Wash your vehicle by hand, with a commercial wand, or by using a touchless commercial wash with no mechanical tracks on the floor. 9 2007 05+ Mustang (197) Supplement USA (fus)
