Brave driving that beauty in the rain!

GEN V has traction control no sweat...

Ralph and Dick drove the car in a blizzard before it made its production debut.

During a development drive from Key West, Fla., to Los Angeles, Gillies and engine chief Dick Winkles were caught in a freak snowstorm that forced them to stop in El Paso, Texas. All the hotels were booked, so they spent the night in the local homeless shelter, sleeping in a large room packed with beds and locals. Gillies called it “the scariest night of my life.”

I wasn't as worried about the driver. More worried about everybody else who drives like an idiot in inclement weather. I never worried about my Shelby getting out from under me in the rain (although hydroplaning was always a risk). I worried a LOT about the other motorists on their cell phones not paying attention.
