1963 Le Mans 24 Hour Race Programme
This Programme problaby means nothing to alot of people on here,but this is the year that two AC Cobras were entered into the 24 hour race. The cars were invoiced to Carroll Shelby,one was entered by AC the other car entered by Carroll Shelby.
Shelby sent two 289 engines over to AC for the cars, the AC entry had a less tuned engine,as Shelby did not want the car entered by him to be beaten !! The American car blew up in the tenth hour of the race,while the AC entry went on to come home in seventh place, beaten by six Ferraris !! The AC entered car was run with a standard 289 engine.
