A Brummie is someone born in Birmingham , Staffordshire . Most residents of Sutton Coldfield like to think that they are posh and disassociate themselves from Brum , right Stan ?
Please guys don't give away any more of the plot , let folks see it for themselves .

I didn't realize the Shelby wasn't always a Ford product - not that I know much about cars. I noticed one in the 90s and was told they weren't being produced for sale. They are manufactured right in LV, NV -- interesting.

Plus anyone who uses the phrase "all around the Wrekin" has brummie aspirations.

Spoiler alert.
Ken Miles was a legend and the GT40 he helped build also. That circuit Le Mans in France is a ridiculously fast track, and even faster in the old days before they divided the long straight into three sections with two chicanes. Just white knuckle shit in those old cars.
I don’t think they know for certain what went wrong in the accident that killed him, but those who new him say it wouldn’t been have been driver error. His shocking death got Ford into developing driver safety technology in race cars that made it vastly safer for those who followed.
