Michael Czysz ruminates on what he would change to make MotoGP and WSB cohesive racing series with clear progression for young or low budget teams to the upper echelons. I think there are lots of good points in here.

COBRA DAYTONA COUPE By Dennis Begley
Good summary of the history of the Shelby Daytona Coupes. The quote by Peter Brock, designer of the coupe, sums it up nicely: "The Daytona Cobra Coupes were the last of the Specials, a watershed point in race car design. From 1965 onward, race car technology followed the lead set by the Broadley/Ford GT40, cars engineered on paper and built with the most technologically advanced materials available. Never again would there be a successful design distilled only from the cumulative experience of a team's race mechanics, who literally envisioned cars on the shop floor and built them as they proceeded, The Daytona coupes were the end of an era."
