==Life after driving== Declining health forced him to hang up his goggles in 1951, but he remained active in racing. He worked with [[Briggs Cunningham]], who was trying to develop an American sports car that could win [[Grand Prix motor racing|Grand Prix]] races, then become manager of a [[Chevrolet Corvette|Corvette]] team with the same goal. Neither project succeeded, but Byron enjoyed sports cars.
