    “Under-steer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and over-steer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.”

    The darker blue car in the second picture is Richard Messersmith's comp car being delivered to him at Riverside where he was taking a driving school with Shelby. More details on Richard and his Cobras (he owned a few) are covered in Colin Comer's 50th Anniversary of the Cobra book. It's filled with awesome pictures like these and great details.
    Later,
