EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a momentous event at Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex. The image showcases an impressive AC Cobra trio, paying homage to the legendary Carroll Shelby and his remarkable motorsport career. The Carroll Shelby Celebration parade featured over fifty cars that played pivotal roles in his journey as a driver, engineer, and team owner. From winning the prestigious Le Mans 24 Hours race in 1959 to developing the awe-inspiring Shelby and Daytona Cobras that triumphed at Le Mans again in 1964, Shelby's contributions were truly extraordinary. It is fascinating to reflect on how this accomplished individual often described himself as just a chicken farmer before making his mark on the world of motorsports. This juxtaposition adds depth to the story behind these iconic vehicles. The Goodwood Revival event provided an ideal backdrop for this memorable spectacle, with its heritage ambiance and nostalgic atmosphere transporting attendees back in time. Against this picturesque setting, these classic motorcars symbolize speed, competition, and pure sporting excellence. Chris McEvoy's expertly captured photograph not only showcases the beauty of these vintage vehicles but also encapsulates the spirit of passion and excitement that permeates through every aspect of circuit racing. It serves as a timeless reminder of Carroll Shelby's enduring legacy within the world of motorsports.
