Ah, I didn't consider an e-brake. That's very likely.
Upon some research, that is certainly it. I am used to the E-brake on the inside of backside of the rotor. Never seen one like that. Shows what I know about proper high performance stuff.

I was wondering that myself, but I have never put brakes on a Shelby Cobra. Nice ride!

Parking brake. Those small pucks wouldn’t last long for any kind of real braking.

I'll guess these are racing brakes that don't normally come with a parking brake, the parking brake is kind of an add on, or custom made for these brakes.
Not many corners cut on this over the top Cobra build. Wow!

I know it. Wish I was a bidder. This is one of the most bananas ones I've seen.
I hope to build one someday, or at least buy one someone else built. You can get into one pre-owned for under $40k. You're looking at between $50k and $60k if you buy and build new.

I sent a link to a friend with two Mustangs who is a Ford nut. He has a 1999 SVR convertible and a 2023 I think Shelby that he had the dealer supercharge. Its like 650 HP at the rear wheels. I suspect he can afford the 496 Cobra.
