EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Carroll Shelby Celebration at the Goodwood Revival in September 2023. The image showcases a remarkable piece of motorsport history, the CJ13 1334 Lotus-Climax Eleven LM150, which was raced by legendary figures such as William L'Anson and Alec Griffiths back in 1957. With its sleek design and powerful twin cam Coventry Climax FPF 1500cc engine, this iconic car holds a special place in Shelby's illustrious career. From his triumph at Le Mans in 1959 to his engineering prowess with the Shelby and Daytona Cobras that dominated the race in 1964, Shelby's impact on motorsport is undeniable. It is fascinating to see how someone who once described himself as just a chicken farmer could achieve such greatness. This print not only celebrates Carroll Shelby but also pays homage to his incredible journey from driver to engineer to team owner. The Goodwood Motor Circuit provides an ideal backdrop for this historic moment, with its rich heritage and nostalgic atmosphere. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era of thrilling circuit racing and adrenaline-fueled competition. Chris McEvoy's skillful photography perfectly captures the speed and excitement of this event. It serves as a reminder of why classic cars hold such allure for enthusiasts around the world – they represent more than just vehicles; they embody passion, nostalgia, and timeless beauty.
