Matt Damon to play Carroll Shelby in up-coming movie

[557]

Curious:  Has anyone from SAAC been contacted about being a technical advisor for the movie?   

Where else are they going to find guys who were there back in the day, and/or know the stats, facts and minutae like a Ford-obsessed savant?

Of course, that makes too much sense for Hollywood.  And probably too late now anyway.  I heard that filming is scheduled to wrap in July.

.   Yeah but if they did that they might get it right,,,,,That's kinda counterintuitive (for Hollywood...)

I was headed to Miller Motorsports Park for a day of driving after buying my 2013 BOSS 302LS. In the plane seated next to me was an older woman who was asleep except for the last 15 minutes of the flight. We talked a bit and she asked me where I was headed. I told her and her comment was " I used to work with Carroll and the gang back in the '60's. The partying and carrying on can't be talked about today. We would all be in trouble." I thought "Why the hell couldn't we have talked since boarding and not just 15 minutes. I would have recorded everything she told me." It all happened so fast that I neglected to get her name. Not that she would have given it to me anyway. She should be a resource for the movie!

Yes, what a treasure trove of off-the-books entertainment she would be!

I used to buy parts and tires from Shelby's operations in LA.  I learned to go in the morning.  It was hard to find his "administrative assistants" to process your orders after noon.

Release date is June 28, 2019.  You have been warned.

I'm excited to see it regardless.  And there is no such thing as toxic masculinity.  I reject such notions out of hand.  I refuse to live in such a world and substitute said world with my own.  Movies pay for social justice agendas.  It killed Star Wars in the last couple of films.  I'll use my manosphere filter to weed out the social justice crap in the Shelby film and just enjoy it for what it is.  Hopefully...

Looks like the release date has been pushed to November 2019.  Must be some mishaps in the pits.
