Default Essex 427 Cobra CSX3009, MOST WINS?
Rumor has it that CSX3009, a Ford Factory/Essex Wire sponsored car in 1965 had more "wins" than any other single Cobra.

As sponsored by Ford/Essex it ran only one year, the team switched to the GT-40 after that. As a private entry following it's sale it is said to have wracked up more wins than any other Cobra.

If true, what races, sanctioning bodies, etc. would it have competed under in 1965-66 or possibly 67?

Makes a strong case for a BB Cobra.
