Daytona Coupe track day w her Shelby sisters
3 Attachment(s)
At Homestead Speedway @ FL today. There was a track day so I brought Viper ACR E to play & brought all my Shelby sisters for a photo shoot. I just received a FACTORY FIVE Replica 64 Daytona Coupe that I gave a low speed shake down in the novice group while I strafed the high speed group w the Viper.
The FF DC is gorgeous, sounds great, & has good power. Now I have a list of details to fix. Nothing serious just a few details. I didn’t put GT350 on track but I think she liked being w her sisters. Shelby worked on the GT40, Ford GT & Viper as well as Cobras of course. |
Wow - nice collection - thanks for posting.
It's interesting to see how much smaller the Daytona is compared to the Viper. Whats the difference in weight? |
Thanks, I’m sure Viper heavier w modern safety stuff but it has lots of aluminum & carbon fiber. The Daytona is very intense like a proper race car. The Viper is also intense but not as loud & the limits on the Viper w 1300# downforce are insane fir a road car

What a beautiful and desirable group of cars. I'll bet that Viper is incredible on the track.
I'm not normally a huge fan of the FFR Daytonas but someone clearly took the time to get the right "look" to yours. IMHO it's crying out for a set of white sidepipes and white-centered FIA wheels, though. :D:D:D |

I gave the GT350 Halibrands and a beautiful leather wrapped NARDI steering wheel to give her a little more Cobra DNA |
The Viper is insane for a road car. The limits are deep into pure race car, def not for beginners.

Bill,
You'll find us open to other vehicles, but we prefer the Ford's on a site like Club Cobra, just saying :D Bill S. PS: Perhaps we will see each other in WPB at the Barrett auction, if they actually have it live |

I thought that was like a Ginetta. That’s a wild Daytona Coupe. What are the specs ?
