Yes Gary was driving the Yellow Cobra with the 302 in it, which had blown everyone ELSE off the track.
It should be pointed out that it being a short track also has a lot to do with it. He is a tremendous driver and often WHALES on most higher powered cars. It is a full blown $200,000 original Shelby Cobra race car, not a $45,000 daily driver like mine.
It takes a hell of a car to outrun an original slab slide small block Cobra, as history has proven. I take nothing away from his car or his skills, both of which are exceptional. I merely wanted to let everyone know that a stock Backdraft car can hold it's own against some of the best.
