hmmm...still seems a little disingenuous though to call a company ShelbySuperCars and then put a disclaimer that says "Shelby Supercars, LLC is in no way affiliated with Carroll Shelby or Shelby North America".

I think I will start a company called FerrariSuperCars to manufacture ricer accessories, but put "Ferrari Supercars, LLC is in no way affiliated with Enzo Ferrari or Ferrari North America" on all my packaging...

Let's see how far THAT gets me once the damned lawyers (redundant adjective!!) get involved!

its interesting how conversations go sideways isnt it? I just thought it was a nice looking car. I also like the FordGT . but i wonder . who is Jerod ? really?
is he a long lost relative who has something to prove? or just another rev-head in the USofA? Is the surname Shelby in America a bit like the surname Smith in England and Australia ?? all these questions, and no one to provide any quantitive answers.
yes i am bored today. its raining!!
