QUOTE (Swissracer @ 12 Oct 2003, 04:03 AM)Anyone know what lights were what on the rear of these cars?
Seperate lights for brakes it looks like but which upper?
I've just seen a program on BBC4 on the Shelby Cobra story that ended up with the Le Mans GT class win in 1964 ahead of the Ferraris.
Great program showing how Pete Brock and his team designed and built the car using plywood moulds designed around the driver, scratch built in place in 3 months - virtually no designing on paper first! It had really bad aerodynamics and they spent 3 weeks on the track getting it right and ended up with a very fast care - around 183 mph!
Anyway I got a glimpse of the rear lights. For the race, the red indicators were on top, brakes below.
