When I started lurking/reading/posting here, I would say I didn't notice that much grief for Shelby relative to what I see now. I did see a tipping point with the SAAC drama started to unfold. Even with just that limited perspective in regards to my membership to this site, I didn't see an inflammatory intent with the deodorant post; just fascinating history that I am happy to know about a very savvy and ballsy entrepreneur.

Anyway, I have to say that I have learned more in this post about the racing history that surrounded CS (As I have been solely focused on his achievements) than I would have expected from a deodorant topic. Now I know there are some other great racing icons to learn about during the cobra period that deserve my attention.

I am constantly impressed with the information/history that the members possess. Thanks!
