This particular GT350R has quite the history. Ken Miles piloted this GT350R at Green Valley Raceway on February 14, 1965, and it was the very first Shelby Mustang entered competitively in a sanctioned event. During this race, Ken Miles made history by nabbing first place. To make it even sweeter, one of the best and most notable photos ever taken in motorsports history shows the Shelby airborne with all wheels off the ground and in the air.

Thank-you John for your great presentation. I believe you might be trying to give Mr.K some competition here !

I just love these cars from this era, also trying to find an interesting way to show them that is different than just a still photo.
