PART 2 –THE TRACK: Imagine you're Ken Miles, 60 years ago, driving a one-of-five 1964 FIA 289 Shelby Cobra on the racetrack. Nicole joins Cobra icon Lynn Park at Willow Springs International Raceway as a guest of the Cobra Owners Club, where Nicole experiences solo driving the legendary one-of five, 450-horsepower race car. For comparision, Lynn and son Steve offer Nicole another bucket-list thrill—a 500+ horsepower 2010 Special Competition Continuation 427 Shelby Cobra. Emboldened with a new Simpson fire suit, Nicole experiences the difference in throttle response, gearing, and torque on the track.

MORE ABOUT LYNN PARK: Lynn's long-time relationship with Carroll Shelby and Shelby American began in 1962. Now a legend in his own right, Lynn is today's living authority on Shelby Cobras, owning more than 50 originals over 6 decades. Lynn and his two sons, Steve and Tim, regularly race three 289s from the collection and can be seen at historic vintage racing events around the country.
