May is also the month that (Cobra Dave) Macdonald sadly died. This happened at the Indy 500 in 1964 whilst driving the Mickey Thompson spl. Dave Macdonald was very successful in the cobras and king cobras,and was leading the Daytona sportscar race in the cobra daytona,s debut until a fire put them out of the race. He also raced the first Lang Cooper when it was still bare aluminium.
Life is full of ifs and maybes, i wonder what was next on Macdonalds racing agenda had he lived, indy cars or sportscars with Shelby or both.
