Carroll Shelby is no longer with us. He passed away yesterday. May he RIP.

Yep. Yesterday's ALMS qualifying (and today's race) broadcast paid tribute to Carroll. Here's a screen cap.

A visionary, a rebel, and one hell of a legend. He will be sorely missed...I remember the first time that him and FoMoCo announced they were bringing back the Shelby name for the Mustang and watching him help sell #1 on Barrett-Jackson...one thing is for sure, no one will ever forget the name Shelby.
