At least two of the Daytona machines will race in the Revival\u2019s showpiece race \u2013 the RAC Tourist Trophy Celebration \u2013 on the Sunday of the event.<\/p>\n<p>Based originally on the British AC-Bristol, the Cobra came into being after American Carroll Shelby \u2013 winner of the 1959 Le Mans 24 Hours \u2013 began fitting Ford V8 engines and strengthened gearboxes to re-bodied machines from the Thames Ditton-based constructor.<\/p>\n<p>Renowned designer Peter Brock came up with an ultra-aerodynamic body ideal for high top speeds and the Daytona Coupe was born, to be raced by superstar drivers of the era like Dan Gurney, Phil Hill and Chris Amon in the World Championship, which was held for closed-top GT cars during the period.<\/p>\n<p>After a Le Mans class win in 1964, a dominant campaign in World Sportscars in \u201965 ensured that Shelby became the first American marque to take the title with numerous class wins from the car, including at Daytona, Sebring, Le Mans and the Nurburgring, with programmes run by Shelby International itself, Alan Mann Racing and \u2013 on one occasion \u2013 Scuderia Filipinetti.<\/p>\n<p>All the Cobras will be housed in a special area within the main paddock, which will be dressed to resemble the pitlane of the 1965 Sebring 12 Hours for this special celebration in September. It is sure to be a highlight for the event\u2019s 150,000 visitors to the Revival.<\/p>\n<p>For further information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/grrc.goodwood.com\/section\/goodwood-revival\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Goodwood.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>[Source: Goodwood; photo: Tim Scott \/ Fluid Images]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 50th anniversary of the Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe will be celebrated at the Goodwood Revival 2015, scheduled for 11-13 September at the Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, UK.
