Capturing the Essence of a Legend - Richard Meins and the Ford GT40 at Goodwood Revival
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Chris McEvoy, we are transported back to September 2023 at the iconic Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex. The image showcases CJ13 1312, a stunning Ford GT40 driven by none other than Richard Meins during the Carroll Shelby Celebration parade. Richard Meins, a man whose name is synonymous with motorsport excellence, left an indelible mark on both racing history and engineering prowess. From his triumphant victory at Le Mans 24 Hours in 1959 as a driver to his groundbreaking development of the legendary Shelby and Daytona Cobras that clinched another Le Mans win in 1964 – Meins' achievements were nothing short of extraordinary. What makes his story even more remarkable is that he often described himself as just a chicken farmer. This humble background only adds to the allure surrounding this photograph and reminds us that greatness can come from unexpected places. The atmosphere captured within this image exudes nostalgia for classic motorcars and pays homage to an era when circuit racing was pure entertainment. Surrounded by over fifty meticulously restored vehicles from Carroll Shelby's illustrious career, it is impossible not to feel immersed in automotive heritage. Chris McEvoy's lens skillfully freezes time as Richard Meins speeds past, showcasing both power and elegance embodied by the Ford GT40. The vibrant ambience of Goodwood Revival further enhances our appreciation for vintage racing culture while reminding us why events like these continue to captivate enthusiasts worldwide. This print serves as a testament to Richard Mein's enduring legacy – forever etching him into motorsport history alongside icons like Carroll Shelby himself.
