Ernie,

I have been soured on Carroll Shelby ever since SAAC 25 when I saw him pull up to all the Cobra replicas in a golf cart and tell his cronies to start snapping pictures of all his Cobra badges on the ERAs at the event. It was to be used in preparation for his suit against ERA.

I lost all respect for the man, here folks are paying $25 each to get into the event that was celebrating his successes, waiting in line to pay for the privilege of owning his signature and what is he doing? Using those very same fans as fodder for one of his lawsuits.

My bubble was burst then and it has only gotten worse.

I still enjoy the conventions, but only for the cars.
