The King Cobra was a Copper Monaco with a 289 COBRA FIA Engine installed, they had major frame twist problems with it as the Coopers did not have very sophisticated space frames, the much more advanced Chapparal with a monocoque tub and articulated independant suspension lead until it broke down, full marks to Dave McDonald for the win, a tragedy he was killed at Indy in May, 64'.
Thats great stuff..thx! Superstars everywhere in this race..macdonald was great driver and i'm sure would've gone on to be an alltime great. Love the king cobra drifting in the turns..beautiful

Amazing driver. The slip angles Dave was able to maintain around the course just boggle the mind.
