Looks like a fun party! How many people were in attendance? Any new announcements of forthcoming products? Did Shelby give a speech?
Is there any significance to the fact that the roadster prototype
and the coupe GR1 prototype were there--that Ford is loaning them to Shelby for further development or were they just there sort of representing Ford?
Were these pictures shot in Vegas and the birthday party is in Scottsdale? Please fill us in for those who couldn't make it (yeah, the Lear's in for service...)

The Friday night party for Carroll Shelby had about 400-450 people there, Mr. Shelby did give a speech. The Road Course and Drag Strip and Car Show we had somewhere between 700-1000 people.

It was a great time, I will be putting up on Team Shelby this week an entire photo album of photos from all the events from the Bull Run to the Roll off of the KR at Barrett Jackson.

We just got back from Barrett it was an amazing time. I hope to meet more people at our next events in Tulsa and Dearborn. I actually lost my voice from talking so much.
