Run 'n Gun Competition -  Woodsy leads in the Superformance Cobra Daytona Coupe,
with apprentice Rory Meier in hot pursuit in the Heritage Deuce hot rod.  Rory kicked
some serious Cobra butt in the new Novice class. Woodsy took 1st in Road Course and
2nd in Autocross in the Street - Small Block class.

Superformance Shelby Cobra Coupes

Cobra Coupe Designer Peter Brock
Peter Brock and Woodsy grin ear-to-ear before heading out
in their Superformance Daytona Cobra Coupes through
the wide-open farm country near Gearhead City.

What a treat to actually meet Peter Brock, designer of the original 
1965 aerodynamic Cobra Coupe that broke speed records for the
Shelby Race Team.

Now, Brock has re-engineered his design for improved handling with
a modern chassis and suspension.  Under his direction, Superformance
updated with creature comforts including enough head, elbow & leg room
even if you are over 6 feet tall.  And, as expected today, the cockpit is
weather-tight with roll-up windows and cooled by factory-installed air.

Plus, it averages 20 MPG thanks to Brock's aerodynamic design.

Superformance Shelby Cobra Coupe in the Ozarks
In the Lead - Woodsy worked out the bugs in the early
production car for a reliable, enjoyable GT cruiser.

We love how the Shelby Cobra Coupe grips the road on the
straight-aways and hugs the curves through the mountains.

Woodsy, Superformance engine installer, dreamed of driving a Cobra
ever since he saw the Coupe race as a kid. Now, you can experience
the thrill too.

Order your Cobra built to spec, like C049 built for a client to race in
One Lap of America.
