Default Know of THE photo?

There is one (ariel) photo that always comes to mind about the car, and I cannot put my finger on it. Maybe someone has it or can find it ???. For those who have not seen it, it may perhaps give you a better appreciation for the car while it was running during a race. With today's motor, staying running , it would probably have achieved a much more memorable racing history. I may be wrong, but I thought it was the flip-top in that photo. I know one of you Cobra history experts has a copy of it somewhere.

PHOTO DESCRIPTION:
After the first lap, you see the Flip-Top waaaaaaaay out front like a 1/4 mile ahead of anything else coming down the straight and a whole bunch of Corvettes way in the background just making the turn.

I want to make a poster of this and put it in my garage if someone can find and post the photo in a reply here ???
