Not Ranked
the 68 vv cooke small block vette driven by allen barker was consistently faster than don roberts in the 289 cobra, altho they had two years of great races. it is still true as bothcars still compete. obviously the corvette pulls better, and the cobra handles better, but the delta is that barker and his brother did so much chassis stiffening and weight adjustments that the corvettes handling improved significantly - real leading edge for the day.
