This marks a very important anniversary…

The 100th anniversary of Carroll Shelby entering this world, so the 2023 Goodwood Revival will honor the man and his legacy. It’s easy to understand why they’d be focusing on Shelby, a man who was a force to be reckoned with as a racer, car designer, and entrepreneur. His influence goes far beyond the cars which still bear his name, heavily influencing American racing and muscle cars to the present day.

Since the annual event focuses on the history of motorsports, the AC Cobra and Ford GT40 will be getting plenty of the spotlight this year. Expect plenty of reminiscing about the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans podium sweep, an event glamorized not all that long ago in Ford v Ferrari. The GT40 went on to win the endurance competition four years in a row, rocking the motorsports world.
