Carroll Shelby

Racing has reached the point where it is pricing the young driver, no matter his talent, out of the game.

I never had ambitions to see how rich I could get. I got a lot of contemporaries that that's their ambition, and I don't know very many of them that are happy.

I don't think I'm a celebrity. I'm just a guy from east Texas who loves cars and airplanes.

I had a lot of fun driving race cars, but it wasn't my No. 1 priority.

It's a massive motor in a tiny, lightweight car.

My proudest moments are beating Ferrari for the World Championship in 1965, and working with Ford to win Le Mans in 1966 and 1967.
