You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 February 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Shelby CSX''' (Carroll Shelby eXperimental) was a limited-production high performance automobile based on the turbocharged intercooled [[Dodge Shadow]] and [[Plymouth Sundance]]. These cars were offered by Shelby Automobiles Inc. from 1987 through 1989.
The CSX serial number was established by AC Cars, in Surrey, England. The purpose of that serial number was to identify which chassis were to be exported to Shelby in the U.S.  CSX stood for "Carroll Shelby Export".

==CSX==
[[File:1987 Dodge CSX number 1, Greenwich 2018, rear left.jpg|thumb|left|The first of the 750 built 1987 Shelby CSX]]
The first Shelby CSX appeared in 1987. Power came from Shelby's intercooled [[Chrysler K engine#2.2 Turbo II|Turbo II]] 2.2&nbsp;L [[Inline-four engine|inline-four]], producing 175&nbsp;hp (130&nbsp;kW) at 5300 rpm and 175&nbsp;ft·lbf (237 Nm) of torque from 2200-4800 rpm, with a 0 to ((convert|60|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on)) time of 6.8 seconds.((Citation needed|date=April 2008))

[[Shock absorber]]s and springs were replaced, and [[Dodge Daytona#Shelby|Daytona Shelby Z]] rear [[disc brake|discs]] were added. Once again, Shelby used his own wheels. Outside badging was more restrained than other Shelby offerings. Black was the only color available.

750 of the 1987 CSX's were sold, priced at $13,495. There was no optional equipment.

==CSX-T==
[[File:88 Dodge Shadow Shelby CSX-T (8937734368).jpg|left|thumb|1988 Shelby CSX-T]]
In 1966, Shelby created a special line of [[Shelby Mustang]]s for the [[The Hertz Corporation|Hertz]] [[car rental]] company. Shelby repeated this method in 1988 with the creation of the '''CSX-T''' for the [[Dollar-Thrifty Automotive Group|Thrifty]] rental company. The CSX-T was only sold to Thrifty. All 1,001 units produced were white with grey and blue trim.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2019/09/rare-rides-the-1987-shelby-csx-not-a-dodge/|title=Rare Rides: The 1987 Shelby CSX, Not a Dodge|date=2019-09-10|website=The Truth About Cars|language=en-US|access-date=2020-04-06))</ref>

The CSX-T was mechanically similar to the 1987 CSX, except the non-[[intercooled]] [[Chrysler K engine#2.2 Turbo I|Turbo I]] engine was used. Two variations were made, an intercooled version given to the president of Thrifty and a version with a factory sunroof given to the president's daughter.

==CSX-VNT==
The final CSX was 1989's '''CSX-VNT'''. This would also be the final Shelby Dodge, and marked two notable technological advances: the introduction of a [[Garrett AiResearch|Garrett]] variable-nozzle turbo ('''VNT'''), which was the first application of variable turbine technology in a production car, and the application of composite wheels designed by Shelby and produced by [[Motor Wheel Corporation]], known as "Fiberrides", which were lighter than contemporary aluminum wheels.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.motortrend.com/news/1989-dodge-shelby-csx-vnt-history-photos/|title=The 1989 Dodge Shelby CSX-VNT Was the Pinnacle of Turbo K-Car Radness|last=|first=|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=))</ref>

[[File:Dodge Shadow CSX VNT Shelby.jpg|thumb|1989 Shelby CSX VNT]]
The engine was Chrysler's new intercooled [[Chrysler K engine#2.2 Turbo IV|Turbo IV]] equipped with a [[Getrag]] A555 5-speed transmission. The variable geometry turbo vanes were computer controlled and needed no wastegate. Instead, they adjusted the flow of exhaust gases to spool up instantly and provide strong power. Chrysler kept the horsepower rating at 175&nbsp;hp (130&nbsp;kW), but upped the torque rating to 205&nbsp;ft·lbs (278 Nm) at 2100 rpm.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.allpar.com/model/csx.html|title=The Shelby CSX - the full potential of the Dodge Shadow/Plymouth Sundance|website=www.allpar.com|access-date=2020-04-06))</ref> Full torque was available from this low rpm to well past redline. Turbo lag was eliminated, with full boost (15 psi spike) available at 2100 rpm. ''[[Car and Driver]]'' magazine called it "a high-tech hot rod" and "a technological showcase" and were impressed with the engine's flexibility and top-gear acceleration. (They tested it to ((convert|156|mph|abbr=on)).) Synthetic oil and premium fuel were specified for use with this car to prevent turbo overheating and prolong engine life. Rather than a proper tune-up (the VNT's control systems were advanced for the time), replacing the VNT with the simple but lag-prone turbo II was common.((Citation needed|date=July 2020)) Examples with the VNT system intact are today considered more valuable to collectors. Shelby installed emblems in the engine compartment specifying [[Mobil 1]] [[synthetic oil]] only, as he did on other Shelby Dodges. These are often missing on long running examples.((Citation needed|date=July 2020)) The suspension was also modified, as the alignment specs are radically different from the other Shelby Dodges. On the exterior, Shelby chose Exotic Red, a mix of bright red and maroon, with gold wheels and trim and a ground effects package produced by Kaminari Aerodynamics to set the VNT apart from the standard CSX. The MSRP was $15,995.<ref>((cite web | url = http://www.nadaguides.com/classic-cars/1989/shelby-automobiles/shelby-csx-vnt/2-door-coupe/Values |title=1989 Shelby CSX-VNT Value |publisher=NADA Guides ))</ref>

Production was limited to 500 vehicles (including two prototypes) and with the completion of cars, Carroll Shelby's direct involvement with Dodge was complete (although he continued to work on projects with Chrysler, often taking advisory roles, which included the development of the [[Dodge Viper]] and [[Dodge Viper (SR II)|Viper GTS]]). The 89 Shelby CSX production figures can be broken down into the following: 15 were equipped as 'two option', coming factory with 225 wide tire option as well as RECARO bucket seats; 2 were used as prototypes; 2 were equipped with non-RECARO and wide optioned tires. The remaining were either RECARO or non-RECARO equipped cars with regular size tires. The front air dams and rear wing can still be purchased from Kaminari Aerodynamics. The wing is now equipped with an LED brake light built into it. The front air dams are slightly different than the original factory piece.
