Default Bill Murray 427 S/C
Hey Everyone,

Just thought I would chime in here. Dick Smith's 198 mph at Daytona is pretty amazing. The closest I have heard anyone else coming to that number is Bill Murray (awesome Cobra restorer and driver) from Colorado in CSX 3032. I remember reading about him vintage racing down at Daytona a few years ago and being officially clocked at 190 mph. Attaining these speeds in a 427 Cobra must be one hell of a ride!!!!

Best regards,
Eric
