DrivinWest, I too have had the Cobra bug for a long, long time and finally pulled the trigger on a roller and have a Superformance MK111 on order, linked up with a Roush 511 8 stack and Bowler transmission.

Superformance is a great brand, I have visited the factory where the rollers are built in South Africa and the workmanship is really great. Its a costly approach to buy new, but its your choice. For me it was just too difficult to build since I work in China and will retire soon, so I went with a new roller.

You have received some excellent advice from the guys on this forum, so here is one more word of encouragement, Lance at Hillbank has his demo on sale. Its an awesome ride since I drove it in December when I cut the deal on the roller, not sure what the asking price is but if you visit their website you can get additiona details.

As all the guys have said, don't wait, do it now. Don't wait until you are an old fart like me before you get the ride of your life. Cheers, tin-man
