I believe Patrick, David and Cowtown have the reasons.
What other car can give you a race car feel in both drag racing and handling a road course. At 2500 lbs. the feel is like no other, equivalent to an added 130 HP for free!!!
I am a true car guy, I had an option :
To get back into Drag Racing or Hot Rodding.
I chose the latter due to flexibility.
I live my race car days through my COBRA, it's as close as I can get.
Solid Motor and Body mounts, Carbureted, Stick, HP range in the 1.5 per cube, 3" ID cobrapacks (no packing) etc.
I do most of my mods and repairs and my garage stinks of high octane fuel, cloths too.
It's pure HELL!
and I love it.
My only regret is that I did not do this sooner, at 55 I just feel like the sharpness and my ability will start deteriorating . What a bummer.
Can I Buy Back In Please, Please
