Not bad for someone who often described himself as just a chicken farmer. Goodwood Revival, Goodwood Motor Circuit, Chichester, West Sussex, England, September 2023

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Carroll Shelby Celebration at Goodwood Revival in September 2023. The image showcases CJ13 1335, a remarkable Balchowsky-Buick known as Ol Yeller Mk2, driven by the talented Ernest Nagamatsu. As one of over fifty cars featured in this legendary motorsport career retrospective, it is evident that Shelby's impact on the industry was profound. From his triumph at Le Mans 24 Hours in 1959 to his engineering prowess with the iconic Shelby and Daytona Cobras that secured victory in 1964, Shelby's legacy shines through. The picturesque setting of Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex adds an air of nostalgia and heritage to this momentous occasion. Surrounded by other classic vehicles and engulfed by the ambience and atmosphere of circuit racing, spectators were treated to an unforgettable experience. It is fascinating to note that despite his illustrious achievements, Carroll Shelby often described himself as just a chicken farmer. This humble background only adds to the allure surrounding his incredible journey from farm life to becoming a motorsport legend. Chris McEvoy's skillful photography perfectly encapsulates both the speed and retro charm associated with this event. The image serves as a testament not only to Carroll Shelby's enduring influence but also celebrates motor sport enthusiasts who gathered together for an extraordinary celebration of history and passion for all things automotive.
