I agree that white with the blue stripe was the accepted traditional american racing colors and Briggs Cunningham, the most traditional of American racing entrants, always ran the white with blue stripe cars. Others thought changing up a little was good fun so Mecom, Shelby American, NART (when they didn't run a red car) and a few others ran the blue with a white stripe. As a matter of fact, I never saw a Shelby American car that wasn't blue with the white stripe, but I'll take your word for it that they ran the white with blue stripe. Anyway, it would be really nice to see someone in ALMS run those traditional colors, at least when they race in Europe (Le Mans).
