I’ve always been fascinated by those numerous Cobra Daytona’ you can see racing at Peter Auto’s events, Masters Historic or at other historic racing weekends, but I never asked any owners/drivers to put an action camera inside the cockpit of one of them. Until last month…
I still don’t know exactly the history of these cars, if they are all recent recreations built from scratch or, for example, rebodied AC Cobra (Roadster) chassis. What I know for sure is that they’re not the six original Shelby Daytona, but they are formidable track monsters with FIA HTP (Historic Technical Passport) which allows them to be raced in any FIA approved historic series.
In this video you can enjoy some laps around Circuit Paul Ricard in a beautiful grey-blue Cobra Daytona Coupé, managed by W.R.S. Wassermann Racing Service, during the qualifying session of the Sixties’ Endurance Series!
