Boat Racing Equivalent
I think it was clearly your Dad, Paul. Carroll was not a manufacturer--a Ford or Kiekhaefer. O. F. "Chris" took existing production products and in the after market enhanhanced their performance.
Shelby took Fords or Chryslers and (working with the manufacturers) made them run better--faster.
Chris took Mercurys and made them run faster. Even in you connecting rod story. Chris caused the manufacturer to make a bettter product.
Chris get my vote for the Carroll Shelby of boat racing.
