Another real treat was to see footage of the Shelby Factory Race team...there at Pensacola with the Cobra 18-wheeler and all.
There were two Comp 289s racing at that event:
CSX2431, driven by Bob Johnson, wearing #98
and, CSX2494, driven by Tom Payne, #96
It is worth noting that Payne and Johnson finished First and Second in GT Class that weekend
Garrett said that the team from Shelby was the nicest bunch of guys, ever...they treated them like part of the factory team throughout the whole weekend.
Here is a great clip of first Bob Johnson, then Tom Payne, making a fuel stop...
