The Automotive world has lost a legend.

Patrick · May 11, 2012

I'm at a loss of words. A true legend gone. Wow.

RIP Mr. Shelby.

Northstar · May 11, 2012

NNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

He will be missed, at least he lived a hell of a lot longer than expected.

Will have to make some chili in his memory.

Dennisch · May 11, 2012

Sad day for the automotive world.

Coxis · May 11, 2012

Not fair. srsly guys.

Even in his later years he was still making cars, no? That's a passion-driven guy. He'll be missed.

Eric. · May 11, 2012

Didn't he want to get the Shelby 1000 produced this year to make it happen before he passed away?

The legend will be missed.

Wiegert · May 11, 2012

He lived a long, eventful life. No doubt that he will be greatly missed by all.

RIP Carroll Shelby.

But, but, but....

He seemed so strong, this is quite a shock to me. He was a great and charismatic man, somebody who inspired car enthusiasts around the world. Shelby cars will never be the same. R.I.P.

Wow. I know he was an old chap by now, but still a bit of a shock.

RIP.

Bopop4 · May 11, 2012

That's terrible. At least he had a good life and became a legend. Far cry from being a chicken farmer. R.I.P

Zenith · May 11, 2012

Go use that white Cobra to make them put up speed limits in heaven.

RIP.

DaxCobra · May 11, 2012

Wow...

Terrible. Another legend gone. R.I.P. Carroll Shelby.

LVracerGT · May 11, 2012

I used to work for Shelby Automobiles in Las Vegas. I've met Carroll a few times. For me, his death marks the end of an era.

If anyone would be interested, I will host a fun race tonight for the Cobra and GT350.

Spacegoat · May 11, 2012

R.I.P Carroll Shelby. Your legacy will never be forgotten.

You set that up, I'll be there.

Still can't believe this has happened.

DaxCobra · May 11, 2012

Holding a few Cobra races as we speak.

Kent · May 11, 2012

RIP

And now begins the exploitation of the Shelby name.

Just the same, lets give the man the respect he earned... :bowdown:

One of my favorite racing stories would not have been possible without Shelby.
