"In 1956 or 7, a man named Roger Wing, of Bethesda, MD, bought a rolling chassis from AC and installed a Corvette engine and transmission in it. He named it the CorvAce. It's first race was at VIR, where Shelby won in a Masser. The Ace withdrew with a broken brake drum and after the race, Shelby showed more than casual interest in the car. Roger Jr told me that Shelby had dinner at their house and drove the car."
