The Best 8 and a half minutes in a Cobra.

2015 Goodwood Revival reunited all 6 Cobra Daytonas for the
first time since they raced Le Mans. I tried to post
photos but CC site services not cooperating.

Here's a link from Goodwood:

The question I ask myself is what did it take (£££?) to get all 6 to the U.K.? I’m sure Lord March can be persuasive but that alone? It is a very prestigious event though attended by F1 drivers, WRC drivers, super bike champions etc. I don’t think it will ever be repeated but I hope I’m wrong.

I have no clue how Lord March and team persuades
a Daytona owner to participate but he had help from
Shelby American and Carroll Shelby International.

The paddock had been altered to recreate the Sebring
pit area circa 1965. A 1965 style press box was
also constructed with Peter Brock, Allen Grant and
Jack Sears providing autographs. These legends
were even impressed as all 6 Daytonas (including
protoype) had never before appeared as a group in one
place at the same time. Not even back when these
cars ruled the track.

My only take is all participants/owners wanted to
be part of history because it likely will not happen again.
