Re: Important Shelby News out of SEMA

I just dont understand how a man who basically owes his second coming to this club could ever let anything like this happen. Carroll SHelby is my hero and i would never say anything negative about him but this whole situation seems to throw me through a loop. Amy, what did SAAC do to upset Carroll. Or did they upset Carroll at all?
Furthermore, i really dont see why there must be one 'recognized' shelby club. Would it just be absolute mayham to have two seperate clubs?
From what i am reading, it sounds like the emphasis on this new club starts with the new stuff and has an after thought of the old cars. I dont think that the new cars hold quite the place in the our hearts as the classics as they simply havent been around long enough to establish their own 'legend' if you will. (Not saying anything about the new cars as i personally think they are fantastic.) I hope you realize that now that you guys are forming the official shelby club you have the responsiblity to accumulate as good or better information than SAAC did. It is going to be a tough task.
AS PRESIDENT OF SHELBY AUTOS COULD YOU PLEASE JUST ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS STRAIT UP AND GIVE SOME RAW ANSWERS?
Best Regards,
Vern
