Shelby nailed it when he said “people SAID they wanted a race car for the street, but they didnt. What they wanted was a street car that SEEMED like a race car.”
So true even today. Look no further than the Demon or the 1320. Not many of them were ordered as stripped down/no option/lightest possible weight cars.
Most want the race car with blue tooth and leather and Apple Carplay, myself included lol
