AFX Racing 2022 Shelby Mustang GT500KR Slot Cars

In 1968, the Mustang was made royalty when Carroll Shelby introduced the GT500KR, "King of the Road," making that model the most coveted collector Mustang in existence. However, only a small number were made, which is why its reemergence at the New York International Auto Show in 2007 did more than impress. Several new performance upgrades—like increased horsepower, new suspension and a state-of-the-art carbon fiber hood—reminded this new generation of the GT500KR's reign; the fastest, most powerful street-legal car Ford has ever produced. The 2022 Mustang drives with a powerful, stealth-like grace reminiscent of its badge: the cobra snake. A vented dry carbon fiber hood breathes life to a supercharged 5.2L V-8 engine, roaring at an astounding 900 hp.

AFX Racing Shelby GT500KR slot cars display this Mustang's unique design with a high-flying rear wing, intricate grille and muscular but sleek, sloping body. With striking blue stripes atop a shining silver, these hobby cars will turn anyone's head.
