Default Re: Race on Sunday, No Warranty Come Monday
Years ago John Leifield was my neighbor. He worked for Ford and was assigned the Shelby account in 1966, and specifically the Shelby Mustang. John was an engineer and his job was to make SURE the Hertz Shelby Mustangs were in good shape on Monday morning. They knew the $25 a day rental cars were being raced over the weekend. Now that sounds to me like Ford wanted the cars raced......and you can bet Chevrolet did too.
