Ken Miles wasnt the only tea drinking English Knight with super skills that Shelby could of hooked up with back in them days. He was another string to the Shelby bow at that time....

Im not trying to re write history im just saying what alot of the Brits here sometimes touch on but fail to fully engage with. There is alot of underline things that got over looked in the grand story of this.
Its somewhat a single sided story sometimes on a double edged sword.

First why do you post 4 times to continue a train of thought? (if that is one train of thought).

Why is it in any way relevant as to what AC could of/might have/should have done? We are talking what was done. You know...if I had wheels I'd have been a race car. Part of the magic of the Shelby story is that it wasn't a car company with millions and years of experience in manufacturing and design or backed by or receiving money from any government that created a world beater.... it is the fact that it was just a bunch of American "Hot Rodders" who accomplished what they did and created one of the most iconic cars of all time.

Yes, there were other talented English drivers in that period of time. And your point is?????????

You're a Brit? Really???? I envisioned you sitting next to a moonshine Still in the hills of Kentucky chew'n some tabbackky. .
