While the Cobra roadsters were dominating the tight road courses of the United States, they lacked the aerodynamics for the high-speed European circuits like Le Mans. In 1964, Carroll Shelby asked Peter Brock and Ken Miles to develop a coupe version of the Cobra to compete with Ferrari, Aston Martin and Jaguar. Given the name Daytona, the six coupes were unstoppable. Driven by legends like Dan Gurney, Bob Bondurant, Allen Grant and Phil Hill, the cars won the FIA World Sportscar GT class in 1965, making it the only American manufacturer to do so.


Here is your chance to drive an exacting recreation of one of the most desirable automobiles in the world. Trust me when I say that not all of these builds are the same!
