I think some here have missed my point entirely. I'm on the Cobra side of the fence. It's freakin' awesome that essentially old school technology (a visual wrapper with all of the underpinnings of a modern day-built BB) beat Enzo's best. But so would a '72 Vega set-up for Pro Gas. I just think the "eating crow" comment was, shall we say, childish? I thought the cobra crowd was above that, despite whatever they spew on a Ferrari chat forum.

I hope Blitz and Tommy get a lot of press for this (magazines or otherwise). It was a cool showdown representing old vs. new, so it's probably best to leave it at that. And they both have big brass ones that clank when they walk, especially Blitz for not having a lot of seat time on a drag strip and just simply going for it all. That impressed me more than him winning the bet.
