"i may be confused here but didn't Bondurant have some dealings with one of the kit car manufacturer's at one point? just goes to show you where Shelby's values are.."

I almost bought my Superformance from Bondurant in '97. Part of the sales pitch was a couple of hot laps around Firebird. He was indeed a franchisee of the enemy camp.
Not knowing all of the details surrounding the Brock situation, I'll avoid any nasty comments about Mr. Shelby, other than to volunteer that one way or another, my opinion of him hasn't changed one bit.
