Steve Saleen was born in 1949 in Inglewood, California, like so many big names in the aftermarket and race car tuning. Stevie's interest in cars dates back to when his father bought a 1956 Porsche 356 coupe. Well, Steve's father gave him that 356 when he graduated high school, when he wasn't in business classes at USC, he would go to local Porsche Club events and tinkered with his 356 that was cool and good, but like all kinds of twenty-year-old cars, Steve wanted to upgrade to something with lovely guys, more power, well, he was saving up for a Porsche 911 and discovered that that board was much more affordable and just as capable. machine in 1969, he replaced the old Porsche with a used Shelby gt350 after a few years, several modifications, and a few SCC events.

Steve drove the Shelby and his first road race at Riverside International Raceway and most people just want to finish their first race this Guy wins, sick, this guy rolls in the late 70's Selene lived out all your hot guy fantasies and was a professional racing driver in the Formula in Lane Six series in 1982, he jumped to the SCCA trans-am series, the sickest racing series in history. The following year he was introduced to some Ford executives who had heard about his history with Shelby and wanted to see what the guy could do with a Fox Body Mustang, and at the end of the year he founded Saline Auto Sport and went to work in his first company.

Saline Auto Sport Mustangs production car debuted in 1985 just as the Lois roof did with the Porsche 911. Selene made extensive modifications to the new factory bodies right from the dashboard, earning them a brilliant manufacturer's title, which He turned them into more than just a tuning shop, Saline Auto. The sporty Mustang had new aerodynamics, Bilstein suspension, wide n chi 16-inch wheels and upgraded sporty interiors and the same 210 horsepower v8 from the Mustang GT. You could order one directly from your local Ford dealership and it came with a factory warranty. Wow, what Selene kept running. Throughout the 1980s, achieving an impressive 30 podium finishes in four years, the racing team swept from first to third place in grueling consecutive 24-hour endurance races at Mosport in '87 and '88, something that had not happened since The Ford GT40 destroyed them all.

In the '60s, I don't know if there's anything better than that. Steve was making a big name for himself building fast, reliable Mustangs for both the street and the track and was just starting to get into the 1989 Ford Mustang Celine supercar, the reliable 5o has large ports, a larger throttle body, a new intake plenum, a new rocker arm, stainless steel tubular headers, Walker Dynomax mufflers, and a heavy-duty cooling system, this made for a total of 292 pairs of them, a big coup considering an original mustang that LX was putting out. Around 220, the SSC also had BorgWarner five-

four-wheel disc brakes and adjustable shocks in the '80s, what the hell was this?

A Porsche 959. I know damn well what the hell this was. A Porsche killed five people. The 959 actually had extremely low rear seats for your friends, but the Saleen supercar threw the rear bench out of the stangs and instead crashed into a massive 10-speaker system. I just want to take a second and acknowledge how sick it usually is to remove the back seats because you want to put a cage or harnesses back on. there, but this guy took it out for 10 speakers like me, white like Celine, debuted the car on April 17, 1989 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original release of the Mustang.

Ford didn't do anything for the event, they didn't even get the Mustang flowers, but $36,500 was a pretty expensive pony car and Celine ultimately only sold one hundred and sixty-one of them. Production slowed further starting in the '90s, but just before that the old Fox Body Mustang was parked in the retirement pasture. Steve rearranged his tried and true standard upgrades, the 1992 Saleen Mustang sported 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in wide, sticky tires that

Celine was ready to do big things with the new generation of the sn95 Mustang in 1994. Celine debuted with the S 351 and the SR. The interior had some awesome upgrades like 200 miles per hour of acceleration on the outside they had body kits, an aggressive stance, sick color matching wheels and came in some period correct neon colors and these are the years 90, a carbon fiber roof. In fact, they changed the modern overhead cam v8 that came in the new one. Mustang for a reliable old stand next to the 351 Windsor that came in the SVT Lightning and had been around for literally dozens of years.

Slean modified the larger engine to produce 371 naturally aspirated horsepower. The SR model had essentially the same engine. You want to know what? the biggest difference was more power more power bull pump power baby ball palm up more power baby ball stack plant more power baby a big ass blower was strapped to the SR this thing stomped 480 sweet sweet air Spurs the whole package pushed to outperform the competition, including the Corvette, a year after SRS debut, Steve formed Celine Allen, our

lab racing team with his friend, comedian slash actor Tim Allen, that's right, the lovable ex-felons from Detroit, dad you can't drive a stick cannon, they added more safety equipment and other race car necessities to a Celine SR and jumped into SCCA World Challenge racing.

They won the last race of the 1995 season. Oh, same thing here after Marlin was born and carried that success into 296 in '97. Tim and Steve brought the Mustang back. at the 24 Hours of the mall for the first time in 30 years, I have to get mufflers for this for the next few years. Celine continued its formula of turning factory Mustangs into fast, impressive-handling machines. There was the S 281 and the sprinter SI 20. It had a lot of horsepower, but you're probably not here for them, you're hoping that the non-Mustang just wanted to build something that punched above its weight class, something that would destroy its veterans. and tweezers and would even give the endings a chance than the Maclaurins.

For their money, they had the experience in making incredibly capable and street-legal track cars, which is why the guys make their 2001 Saleen S7 one of the most underrated supercars of all time. Steve knew a lot about modifying Mustangs and b8s, but he needed Rhema Lock Limited to help. with the overall development and design of a mid-engine supercar, rml was simply a legendary race car development company, no big deal, the Saleen s7 was America's answer to the McLaren f1, its long carbon fiber body was as slick as Nolan's shaved bodywork and a cabin that looked like a damn Lomov prototype, the first generation engines were big 7-liter Ford Windsor v8s that generated 550 Hertz for all that power sent the s7 from zero to 60 in three point three seconds and at 168 created its own weight in The owners of the road version installed them from the factory like an F1 driver because the seats were not adjustable.

They also came equipped with a rear view camera, so it's nice, fancy for the year 2000, but you needed it because you couldn't see much faster like a 7 channel swag, all of this could be had for a cool $388,500. dollars, that is, 1.5 million dollars today. The revised twin-turbo S7 was very similar to the first, except that the revised body had an updated interior. and one person used 750 hurst, 700 foot-pounds of Turks and only made like a hundred pounds. This thing was still under 3k for bolt on bagel turbochargers with only seven liter v8, now they slap drivers in the face, another version, the racing version of the s7 naturally.

The aspirated S7s proved to be super competent on the track when they took on Maseratis, Lamborghinis and Ferraris at Imola in 2004. The Celine's left the ground white with them. Legend has it that to this day Ferrari still remembers this as one of his biggest surprises in his career. The whole story and I love that after the success of the s7 supercar there was almost nothing Celine couldn't do, which is why Ford asked them to help build their new GT in 2004. Ford needed to outsource some work in order to produce a 200 miles. per hour, so Celine used his experience in specialized manufacturing techniques to do the assembly and painting.

Celine was a factory supplier for other cool cars in mm: they made a supercharged engine in the harley-davidson edition ford f-150 and were the paint supplier. for the 4th generation Dodge Viper in 2007 they diversified further and released the Celine s3 31 sport truck, the upgraded f-150 had 23 inch wheels and the supercharged version made 450 their Spurs, but that same year Steve Saleen parted ways of the company that founded and launched the SMS supercars eventually turned to increasing the power of other American cars. He installed a blower for the first year of the Dodge Challenger that would allow it to produce 700 Spurs.

He made a modified Chevy Camaro with 650 Spurs and called. It's the Camaro 620, you know, because the dust settled in 2012 and Steve walked away from his old company bringing all his other SMS messages, of course, this was still making Celine Mustangs like a 2014 model called SI 30 to celebrate the 30th anniversary. There were more special editions but 'yeah there's a lot to cover nowadays, Celine has the 700 horsepower, 302 and 700 horsepower sport truck even better, they are also building a carbon fiber which is not quite a madness, a follow-up to the s7, the $100,000 Celine is powered by a and I love this one, a 2.3-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that makes 450 horsepower and 350 pound-feet, the s1 engine is in mid-mountain and the The car gets to 60 in just 3.5 seconds and is only offered with a 6-speed manual transmission and in true American style, it wants to make a GT racing car that is cheaper than its European competitors.

The Cup Series they have developed will have a category for young drivers and a class champion will get a free seat in a Celine gt4 car for the following season. which is my favorite thing because right now race car drivers are just rich kids where's little LeBron James? Where is the Mike Tyson of racing? It is this? Maybe the Sims too probably too, regardless of whether this all sounds like Steve's humble beginnings in motorsports and good for him for paying it forward, thanks. for watching the updates and all other programs from the donor media we are about to reach too many subscribers so hit the subscribe button if you like this video tell our boss and hit the like button watch this episode of the my son Nolan's program. watch this episode of my other show follow me on instagram at Jeff Humphrey Paul donut at donut half I love you
