saying he's not a racer is pushing it though, we all know he was a gr8 driver b4 he started modifying mustangs and ac cars.
Hes not a racer.. He was a racer. He hasnt been in a race in 30 years. And before you point out his age how old was Paul Newman in his last Lemans run?

I'm admitedly not a fan of Shelby. Not because of his cars.. but because of how he treated the replica community. The man has always come off as a sleezy used car salesmen to me.

america simply wasn't making good cars in the 80s
There were a few good, at least compared to the rest of the world at that time, American cars in the 80s. Shelbys name wasnt attached to them.
