Sadly, the auto industry, hot rodders, and friends/family lost another of the great automotive icons. Even if you weren't that into cars, chances are, the name "Carroll Shelby" rang a bell. One of the innovators in the industry, and without a doubt, a HUGE gearhead, he will be missed. It should also be noted, he marketed one of the best damn off the shelf chili mixes I've ever had! Mixed with beer as opposed to water, the chili is nothing short of spectacular. R.I.P. Mr Shelby, your legend will last an eternity.
