Not to take anything away from Blitz, he did a great job of driving, and he won, fair and square. I found it curious how many here have commented how the Cobra really cleaned the Ferrari's clock.
The 2100 lb. Cobra was sporting a "built" all aluminum 511 cu in. dual quad motor with 715hp vs the Ferrari that weighed in at 3384 lb., including the 110 lb. passenger and had a small displacement 274 cu in. motor.
I love American muscle, but considering the Ferrari lost by just about a 1/2 sec., I'd say that Ferrari did a fantastic job.

awe shucks Cobra427, the reference to cleaning the Ferrari's clock was in retaliation for the folks on the Ferrari thread having the same opinion about what the Ferrari would do to the Cobra.
Tit for tat.

Been checking in on this thread for a while and as always the comparrison is not equal,as were the muscle car wars of the 60's and so many of the races we read about then.It is still interesting and fun to read about but by no means really means much about what each car stands for.Win or lose either of the two cars would look great parked in my yard.As many years as I have been racing there will always be a winner and a loser that never changes.It all depends on what you want sitting in you driveway in the end.A Cobra will always be a part of our household!
