Evan, no personal attack here but I think on this point you are really in the minority.

The SAAC conventions especially, have provided Shelby exposure to us Ford fans that most other marques can only dream about.
Lots of marques have big shows but SAAC was the first to allow the owners to put their cars on the track where an awfull lot of us fans prefer.After all Shelby made his name on the track not the show field.
