I sense some people's unwillingness to offend a 'Real Cobra' owner for fear the 'Shelby Gods' strike them down. I strongly disagree with your (and others) take on this.
I think you missed it, the person in question (#99) owned and raced a replica up until a year and a half ago. He does not own an original. His was a FPSB just like yours and mine...Again, lighten up, this "us vs them" mentality comes more from us (replica owners), than from them (original Cobra owners). I know plenty of both, and only know one or two on both sides that behave as if their $hit does not stink. Those are the minority and not the majority as we are all just car guys who enjoy what we each own, regardless of the money spent to acquire (or build) them.......
