Default What about a Lister

Real 1 I would have to look at a couple of others cars in this fight. First would be a Lister with a 377 SBC. Maseraita birdcage would also be looked at. If gearing being the same and engines being in the 300 inch number, on small tracks without long straights, and the GS being about 300 pounds lighter than the cobra,,,,,,, I pick the cobra by a fender. Add the lister in the mix and Lister wins walking away. Long track would be the Daytona with top end speed over the cobra and GS. Lister has a longer wheel base and better weight ratio to a Daytona. The drag is also less on the Lister. I would give this the winner. For looking cool, Daytona Coupe, Lister, Cobra, and the other car. Rick L.

Also done at the Monterey Historics several years ago -- Mac Archer in a 427 Cobra starting from the back row passing Rob Walton in the Ferrari on the last corner. One of the best races I've ever seen

RIP Mac
