 Hello and welcome to our new website. We are in Beta testing - please let us know if you find any problems navigating this site.


I've added some new videos of Bob Olthoff racing for Team Gunston during the late sixties, early seventies. Too bad it wasn't a level playing field. The organization allowed full on Formula 1 cars to compete with the Formula 5000 cars such as Bobs' car. A big weight difference between them. Mouse over the "NEW CARS" tab, and choose video from the drop down. 
WE ARE CURRENTLY HAVING SOME TROUBLE WITH OUR E-MAIL

Dennis Olthoff

Proof that the "talent gene" can be passed on. Not only a very qualified and accomplished driver, but understanding and implemetation of "how it should be done," as father Bob would say. Dennis Olthoff continues the tradition, providing Superformance owners the "right" combination for just cruisin' or all out competition. More articles and information about Dennis will be added soon. Check back often to learn more.

  • Driving School

    DennisKeep your eye on this section. We'll be posting videos here to show you how to "control" your car.

    Don't under-estimate how quickly a good day can go horribly wrong. The things you'll learn here just may save the day, and possibly more.

    Say when, another car suddenly pulls out in front of you, or that corner up ahead was a little sharper than you expected...

    Dennis Olthoff will be your instructor and some videos will be done split screen so you'll be able to see the "fancy foot work" needed to make the car do what you want it to, when you want it to.


     




  • Events

    If you've never been to an Olthoff Racing track event, what are you waiting for? Our events are non-competitive and are for YOU the owner to have the opportunity to understand and FEEL the way the car reacts in different situations.

    A high powered short wheelbase car can be a real handful to a novice driver, and we put on these events to give you a safe environment in which to practice car control.

    First, on day one, we have the drivers meeting in the pits to let everyone know how the event is run. Next we take ALL drivers around the roadcourse and stop and explain how to drive each corner, the braking point,the preferred line of entry and exit, the apex point, safe passing zones and entry and exit of pit road.

  • The History of the Cobra

    Carroll Shelby is a name and a brand, both of which are foundations of America's car culture. The name Carroll Shelby refers to a proud son of Texas born in that great state in 1923. He is the shuffling, lanky chicken farmer in the striped overalls who proved to be part daredevil, part entrepreneur, and all genius when it comes to the art of moving faster. Shelby's remarkable career as a racecar driver is eclipsed by his even more remarkable influence on American auto design. Look for upcoming stories about the man and the machines.
