The all-time classic battle (both on and off the track!) between Enzo Ferrari and Carroll Shelby as you’ve never seen it before. This motoring movie reveals the true story of how Shelby, the Cobra and a bunch of Southern Californian hot-rodders took on the might of Enzo Ferrari and his iconic GTO. A must for Cobra, Ferrari and motoring fans alike.

The extraordinary film of how Carroll Shelby, together with a bunch of Southern Californian hot-rodders and the Cobra took on the might of Enzo Ferrari and his GTO in the mid 60s. Ten years in the making this fast-paced, split screen epic double DVD is the definitive and certainly most comprehensive film ever made on the subject

"I spent a whole lot of time with Richard on this and he's really nailed it. Got all the right people, from Dan Gurney to Lee Iacocca. It's a wonderful, wonderful story and I've never seen anybody tell it better. I'm very proud to have been part of it." Carroll Shelby

Aside from original interviews with all the participants there's stunning footage of the original races alongside beautiful, newly filmed reconstructions with the original cars (Ferrari GTO, 250 SWB, Cobras and Daytona Coupe) on the track. A must for Cobra and Ferrari fans alike.

Beautiful

Very highly recommended. I have watched it many, many times while exercising and have loaned it to friends.

It is totally one sided, glorifying Shelby while leaving out "the rest of the story". Do NOT think this film presents the truth though. It makes many incorrect statements that are well documented in factual Cobra history.

Shelby is, and always has been a salesman. Very charismatic and likable, as long as he got his way. He is known to be very "creative" with his memory and is regularly caught in lies. But that is who he is and does not take away from what he and his team were able to accomplish.

Too much time spent on Shelby reminiscing about the good old days in interviews which is where most of the inaccuracies show up, but the cars and historic race film shots are great.

I do recommend the video and enjoy it, just remember there are at least two sides to every story. This is Shelby's modern version of history...
Shelby is cool personified
