Just got the pro pics from this past weekend at Eagles Canyon Raceway. What an amazing time with Chin Track Days. I was assigned a 22 year old student driving his dad’s built 2000 Cobra R. It was his first time driving on a track. He had a blast and learned a TON! His progression from the first session on day one to his last on day two was YUGE! A couple of highlights for me was taking my student in my car for a full-send session… showing him just how crazy it can get… and then the absolutely amazing experience of driving their 00R at the track! 🤟 🏎🤟

I’ll eventually get the videos up on my ShelbyFlyer YouTube channel.

Im just curious how the Cobra R handles in terms of todays standards, never had the opportunity to drive one?

This particular R has a bunch of upgrades to include the suspension. It handled very well!

But does it handle as well off road as the CFTP? Inquiring minds want to know.

Looks like someone was trying to do some landscaping with that Cobra R.

It was my student’s first track event ever! We had a little spin-out. He learned a lot about weight transfer and friction circles.

Glad the school of hard knocks was only a slight inconvenience in this case.

Thank you for sharing Tim, as always great track pictures.

You're mistress is well represented in my collection

I can use one day a nice Side or back picture of your tracking days, I am wanting more tracking shots of GT500's I found some really nice high res, Track Attack pictures, Daryl said he'll have a few in a month or two.

I will one day too, I want that mostly after I get my new wing.
