Default CS to be Grand Marshall at Road America June Sprints June 24, 25, 26 ?
I have it on a _very good authority_ that the Chicago Region SCCA has arranged for Carroll Shelby to be the grand marshall for this years 50th anniversary June Sprints.
Carroll won the first Sprint at Road America in a Ferrari, and is said to be very enthusiastic about attending in spite of some recent health issues (which have caused him to cancel on some other recent events).

Carroll should arrive Friday during the day (he couldn't make Thursday, the first day of the event) and be there through the weekend.

For various political reasons the management at RA hasn't been publicizing this (the Chicago Region SCCA has arranged it...) So i thought a little heads up to people who might be interested was in order.
