By the early 80's, it was time for something different. Carroll went to work for Cal Wells, trying his hand at off-road racing. "I learned a lot!" said Carroll about his time. He won a lot, too.
Carroll never stopped working. Near the end of his life, he consulted for Ferrari Formula One and had many clients in vintage racing. He was always an avid fan of SAE (the Society of Automotive Engineers) and remained active until his peacful death from panchreatic cancer in early 2003. He was last seen by most of his racing friends at Long Beach, crowing about the barn he raised with his fiancee, Ginger, at his retirement home in Northern California. |
