I love Cobra's, but lets not get excited that a car designed to win races can beat road cars. The new Nissen GTR would I'am affraid kill it. Not that that matters I would if given the money have a Cobra over ANY car.
it's nice to see someone using that car for what it was originally designed for..... laying waste to everything on the track! HAHA! nice car man. are you running a dry sump set up with the good old armstrong power steering like the oringinals?
Best racing there is. SCCA and the like. Hey the last weekend in January is the 24 hrs of Daytona. Make sure you watch. Now who's the RETARD that gave the thumbs down??
@14omega28ok Plenty of British sports cars fitted with V8s. Cobra wasn't even the first - that was Allard. Then there's the Sunbeam Tiger (Ford V8) Jensen (Chrysler V8) Ginetta (Ford and later Rover V8) TVR (Ford, Rover based V8 and finally TVR's own V8) Marcos (Rover and later Chevy V8) Morgan (Rover and later BMW V8) and Ultima (Chevy V8). Not forgetting Aston Martin, Jaguar, Lotus and now McLaren with their own V8s.
Rice Rockets? I thought those were pregnant bumblebees! It is a strong support of the mindset that there is no real substitute for cubic inches and brutal horsepower and torque! When it comes to an A C Cobra, you either race one or you chase one.
Rice Rockets? I thought those were pregnant bumblebees! It proves once again that there is no real substitute for cubic inches and pure brute horsepower and torque.
great driving, awesome car, really good vid! just hate how a lot of ppl are saying japanese cars are ricers. muscle cars and imports are great, both have their positives and negatives. i wouldn't say every japanese car in this vid is a ricer,but there are plenty. Still, in this vid, looks like nobody had a chance against the cobra.
Gotta watch out for that Cobra in the straightaways...just absolutely Awesome! Loved watching you pick them all off one by one everytime there was a straightaway
Its a blessing to see these cars run, good video Compared to the 56000 cobra videos of them just sitting still or never out of 3rd gear @2000rpm, like the Pantera videos!! lol.
Great car! Great video. Before this, I had never been to Homestead. When I was in school, the only thing in Homestead was a good pizza place. I loved to see you flying past the Miatas--those things are underpowered, but an absolute blast on a twisty road course. Anyway, you showed them what it means to be good.
@madmitch105 no kidding ....but the technology from a 350 z to an old school cobra ...if its a true reproduction.. get real....and yes i know in the straights the z would get thrashed! but then again a kirkham cobra would hold up against it pretty damn well id imagine.
@69Cabeast, You are quite right on that note, however to be frank the shelby cobra is more of a Supercar then a muscle car, in fact the cobra and the GT 40 are considered the first 2 Supercars to be built. most of the ferraris, bugatti's of the day ran small 8's where in fact the cobra and the gt 40 ran large 8's, there was the ferrari 289, which was considered a supercar as well, so maybe 2nd and 3rd super car to be built, considering the whole point of the car was for ford to beat ferrari!
