I only timed one lap, it was 2:35 with an average speed of 94 mph, not to shabby for a car that you could drive home after the race, without a trailer. The 289 high performance engine was one of the best internal combustion engines ever built, they had all the right stuff.
Thanks for the ride along Colin.
Thanks for keeping the race cars on the track and not in a museum. Treat them with dignity by flooring them all the way to 8K RPM what a sweet sound!
mate, that is just one of the most beautiful sounds a man could hear. great video.
Absolutely beautiful , you could never get sick of the sound of an angry v8 at full song , I was thinking it was a 6 speed box and when I read it was a toploader.!'WOW' you still have a lot of speed on when you're going back to 1st for some of those corners , awesome video can't wait to watch your others
I am a member of the Northwoods Shelby Club and we have an annual event at Road America, for those that are not aware, Colin Comer has authored two of the best books on Shelby autos ever written, "Shelby Cobra Fifty Years" and "The Complete Book of Shelby Automobiles - Cobra's, Mustangs, and Super Snakes. If you are a Shelby fan, they are a must read.
I watch this when I can't drive my Superformance MKIII with a 392 Windsor, THANK YOU for getting me through Winter without medication!!!!
Nothing better than a built Windsor reaching for the sky ❤❤❤❤
Actually, it is a toploader 4 speed- with Jericho dog tooth gear set (no synchros)
Even has a good-old Hurst Competition Plus shifter, too.
It shifts just like the toploaders the old drag racers used with cutback synchros, lift and shift.
great drive !!!! thats the only music a ford guy wants to hear ... a windsor screaming !!!
congatulations for the of the best video's on you tube !!!!!!!!!!!!
How is the steering feel on that car? What kind of setup are you running on the front suspension? Stock?
YOU CAN DRIVE MY FRIEND!
I'm so glad you aren't letting yours rot in a museum or some such similar nonsense. Cars like this are supposed to be thrashed, and I love the noise they make when they are!
small block henry!!! i love it. sure sounds fantastic.
Absolute "BEAST" Great Post :)
wow. how many hp did you get out of your 289 / 295:) ?
these high rpms sound badass :) ..what tuning did you do to the engine?
my 289 needs upgrades :)
is it a full jerico transmission, or just the jerico gear set?
man that looks so funn!!!
nothings like a american muscle on the track. gearbox and shifter looks amazing
my gods thats a nasty sounding 289!!!!
Great ride!
how much power is this thng put'n to th ground??
Awesome!
can you build a car to enter these events..or is it for the vintage cars only....
that have real history on the track?
That is a sweet sounding car you got there my friend! Just one thing, hands position :s allways at 9 and 3 of the clock, dont move them around so much.
anyway great ride, enjoy it!
Perfect.
Does this car have 180* headers by chance? Sure sounds like it on downshifts.
did you use a rev kit
How did they achive no distortion from such a noisy environment!? I bet they've used professional audio recording gear.
That was awesome! How high in the RPM's?? Sounds like 8,000!
Or More :)
Man this things got alot of first gear for a V8
9;000 RPM ? Screaming !
Thanks. Redline 8400, shift at 8100 +/-.
@cobracolin Should have found out what he was guaranteeing, might have snagged some free parts or something. Nice sounding ride, I guarantee you those are tuned headers....OOPS!
The trans have a lot of shifts
@texasccl2 you lost your classic mustang in a divorce?
I guarantee you that is not a toploader 4spd ...
@texascclp1445 damn. that sucks.
@camelsamul
Yep. it really sucked. Had a moment of thinking about burning it or wrecking it so she wouldn't get much. then i thought that would be a truly dumb thing to do. i respected that car more than that. plus i lost a 67 mustang fastback with a 351 Cleveland, 4spd and other goodies. yellow exterior with black interior. Oh Well.
It is begging for a massive squeeze Sprint Car engine
y does that stang sound like a beefy ass honda????
4 speed Toploader my ass..he's another East Coast cheater running a Jericho transmission..Only thing vintage legal on that car is the paint !
+johnsen166 - glad you're catching up on 6 year old videos. Question: Where does it say this is a "West Coast" legal car? It is legal- for the venues I raced it at in the Midwest and East Coast. It is a real GT350 with VSCDA "era-correct" certification. Legal displacement, legal weight, legal suspension, and a legal Jerico gearset in a Top Loader case (as noted below in a reply to another comment) with the associated weight penalty for using this setup complied with. Now, if I said "Monterey legal" or "exact era correct specs" that would be something else. So, is it cheating when you comply with the rules for where one races? I don't know anybody running Ford guts in their Top Loader nor do I know anybody running a 4 point roll bar, or dual point distributors, or brass radiators, or without a fire system. This is vintage racing- some of us like adding a little safety and reliability. You may enjoy reading the article I authored in Vintage Motorsports magazine on this very topic of East vs. West prep entitled "One Trick Pony." Best regards, and Happy Thanksgiving. -Colin Comer
6 👎, hm...😤
Must be FARRARI!😁😁😁😁👍
i am tired of watching ford on ford . i don't care if your ford is better than mine i want my ford to be better than your chev, porsche, etc.. and it's not..
Thanks for your insightful comments on this 11 year old post. I humbly suggest the easiest fix if you don’t like watching Ford videos is to not click on them. Sincerely CC350
if fact i usually click on aussie videos where they know how run fords@@cobracolin
@@billgator2005 yeah rules are a little different there, we run real cars prepared to strict vintage guidelines here. Happy to race you any time though- or if you post some of your racing videos to your channel I'd love to see how a pro does it. I'm still learning. Thanks for watching.
always ford on ford. drop a camaro in there and it's gone
