Auto Legend Carroll Shelby Passes Away

Carroll Hall Shelby, a man whose vision for performance transformed the automobile industry, has died at age 89. Mr. Shelby passed away yesterday (Thursday 10th May USA time) at Baylor Hospital in Dallas. While probably best known now for the Shelby Cobra and Shelby Mustang, his auto-industry start came as a notable race driver.

Born on Jan. 11, 1923, Carroll Shelby was one of America’s greatest success stories. Championship-winning racecar driver, “flying sergeant” wartime pilot, philanthropist, entrepreneur, car manufacturer and racing team owner, he embodied the ingenuity, tenacity and grit to overcome any obstacle. He is perhaps the only person to have worked at a visible level with all three major American automobile manufacturers.

The Ford Mustang was the car that jumpstarted the pony car revolution and rejuvenated the term ‘High Performance’ in American automobiles. But FoMoCo wanted more! Dearborn had a vision of it’s pony car winning races and even more sales success. So Ford hired Carroll Shelby to repeat his Cobra magic with the Mustang and in 1965 the Shelby Mustang GT350 was born. From it’s debut, both in Street and Race configuration, they humbled all opposition on the road, racetrack and dragstrip.

     2012 BOSS 302 - TWIN KEYS... 
The new 2012 Boss 302 will come with two keys.. one programmes the car for street use, the other is a "Trackey" ..

The red TracKey differs from the standard key (with a black Boss logo) because when used it activates
the TracMode powertrain control software, making the Mustang Boss 302 a competition-ready track car.
The TracMode software alters more than 200 engine management parameters, increasing low-end torque.
