Default Re: Carroll Shelby - The Authorized Biography

I bought a used 1990 LX 5.0 hatch in college and it was one of the most fun cars i've ever had. It took a serious beating. I put over 100,000k on it and street raced it every weekend. I also had 3 apart big block Chevys and 4 Muncie transmissions in the hatch area at one point in time when I bought some stuff while in college and had no truck. The car drove like nothing was back there.

As for Carroll Shelby, not a fan of what he did to the club members. They literally preserved and continued his legacy. If it wasn't for them, he wouldn't be as recognized as he is today.

I compare Shelby and the club members to the people trying to preserve the Harrell heritage and Valerie getting in the way.
