Shelby has built his reputation in the 50's and 60's with his being a winning driver and then building a winning team and cars.

Everything I see after that without a racing heritage to go with it seems to be nothing more than a designer brand. Much like the Eddie Bauer Bronco.

Anything not built during his racing and WINNING does not hold the same prestige.

Face it. It is Shelby winning that the Legend is built on.

We all love a winner.
I would like to see Shelby put a winning racing team together and throw that Mustang back in the mix. Then I can look at the new GT500 and say it has a racing heritage behind it.
