2013 Rolex Monterey Motorsport Reunion

Well the Cobra's didn't come out with the win, we took that honor for all 3 races in the Grand Sport. But being there is some great racing and some awesome footage of some Cobras, GT 350, and some other blue ovals racing. I thought I would share this video with all of you.
Yes she is a real 1963 Grand Sport. Serial Number 004.
Bruce Canepa was driving.
All the equipment you see on the car is part of the REVS Program at Stanford University. Really great program they have developed for the Automotive community.

As for the video, it's just a few seconds of skipping around the warm up lap and then we go right into the action, the actual race. 4 Cameras give you an all around view of what's happening.
Here was the car with the body removed, so we could test everything and visually inspect the car before we left for the race.
(I've Bled Blue my whole life, But even I am forced to admit this is one bad ass car, you can tell it was purposely built to beat the Shelby Cobra's which at this time period were dominating the racing circuits.)
Another side note, the one Cobra hanging with us is not original, it has Roush parts inside so it runs better than it ever would have in period. Our car is stock like it would have been in 1963.
Hope everyone enjoys the race.
