EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Carroll Shelby Celebration at Goodwood Revival in September 2023. The image showcases CJ13 1298, a magnificent Jaguar C-Type driven by Frederic Wakeman, a legendary figure in motorsport history. Known for his remarkable achievements as both a driver and engineer, Wakeman's illustrious career included winning the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1959 and developing the iconic Shelby and Daytona Cobras that triumphed at Le Mans in 1964. The parade of over fifty cars featured in this celebration pays homage to Carroll Shelby's extraordinary contributions to the world of racing. Against the picturesque backdrop of Goodwood Motor Circuit, located in Chichester, West Sussex, England, this event exudes an ambience filled with nostalgia and heritage. It is fascinating to learn that despite his incredible success on the track and as an engineer, Carroll Shelby often described himself simply as a chicken farmer. This humble background adds another layer of intrigue to his story. Chris McEvoy's expert photography beautifully captures not only the speed and excitement of circuit racing but also highlights the classic beauty of these historic motorcars. This print serves as a testament to the enduring allure of vintage sports cars and their place within our collective fascination with motor sport history.
