***This book is the story of my life: I was born in 1923 in Texas. After flying bombers in World War II, I raced during the 1950s, winning the SCCA National Championship, Le Mans, and the USAC Sports Car Championship.

During the 1960s, I opened a driving school and produced Cobras, King Cobras, and Shelby Mustangs. My cars won everything there was to win including the FIA Manufacturers' Championship.

My team ran Ford GTs and won the triple crown of racing in 1966: Daytona, Sebring, and Le Mans as well as the Manufacturers' Championship for Ford.

In my spare time, I invented my very own chili and sold it to Kraft Foods.

During the 1980s, I produced modified versions of Dodges and in 1990, got a new heart.

In 1999, I built my own sports car, the Series I, from the ground up. I also began building more Cobras and Shelby Mustangs in my factory in Las Vegas.
