Do not drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal or use the clutch
pedal to hold your vehicle at a standstill while waiting on a hill. These
actions will reduce the life of the clutch.
Your vehicle is equipped with a twin disc clutch. Due to the high
performance of the powertrain, a certain amount of noise from the
transmission is normal.
ADVANCETRACSTABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
AdvanceTracSport Mode
The AdvanceTracsystem provides an available Sport Mode specially
calibrated for the GT500’s unique performance characteristics. This can
be selected utilizing the AdvanceTrac off control switch. See theDriving
section of the owner’s guide for more information.
Sport mode is not intended for use on public roadways as this mode
provides less AdvanceTracsystem intervention than when the default
ESC and Traction Control systems are on. Sport mode will allow more
spirited driving while the AdvanceTracsystem is still enabled.
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. Water may enter through the
air intake due to the vacuum generated in the engine. Damage caused by
the intake of water in the engine is not covered by the warranty.
