Watched this movie last week when it came in on my magic movie box. It was ok I guess then I watched a doc on Le mans and one on shelby,they were better and covered prety much the same stuff except all the real people were involved instead of some actors.
The story about the Daytona was the best part,I had no idea they designed and built the car in under 90 days! The aero changes increased the speed by about 50mph and I got a chuckle when Shelby said the cobra was like a brick.

Shelby told them to toss them in the North sea as they werent worth the freight to ship home.
Luckily they were saved and shipped to cali.
-
Short sighted on the part of Shelby.
-
Maybe but at the time,who would have thought they would bring in 7 figures?

How about all those perfectly good airplane from WW2 that got dumped in the ocean.

Ya the brits dumped some perfectly good corsairs into the North sea and I suspect the Pacific and Indian oceans too.

Jeeps, white trucks on and on

beats paying for shit.

Nothing with a propeller was "perfectly good" after the Me 262 showed up...
Cheaper to just bulldoze them off the deck than having to scrap them.

Well we did wipe out an an entire generation, does that count? It was like we were leading a basketball game in 100 to 10 in the 4th and then we just left. So technically I guess we didn't "win" but we sure fucked the other team up.

The traitor Johnson and his leftists media lost viet-nam
-
And when the locals weren't losing fast enough after we left, the Dems yanked funding
-
That too
-
The Cobra and my Healey look like they are aero to the untrained but they really are bricks at anything over 140 or so.
Shelby could be farsighted. when cobra shut down he saved all the numbered chassis he had left.... stored em and then when the price got astronomical he assembled em and sold em as 'real' cobras. Which they were.
