I don't think he short changed the guys at SAI but is rather saying the Without help from many different places he wouldn't be where he is today.

He said "While one does have to give Shelby credit for placing himself in the right place at the right time, so that he could become a legend of the performance industry, he did not do any of this alone. Other people had put a Ford V8 engine in a AC Ace, other people had won in Mustangs , but Shelby was able to market those products and himself. It took, Ford, Holman & Moody, Alan Mann and all the great drivers and team members of each of those teams and the hard work of the Shelby American Automobile Club to enable Mr. Shelby to be what he is today."

Seems to me that lately Shelby is doing more to discredit and throw guys like Brock under the bus. You know the coupe being such a huge mistake and all...
