On the cover:
Ford released its latest Shelby GT500 and we were there to put it to the test. With 540 hp, it's a real screamer, capable of sweeping the strip or cleaning clocks on the road course (photo courtesy of Ford Motor Company). The SBF in the top corner is Dart's latest budget bullet, and Mike Galimi was on hand to give you a full report.
