Default Man What A Day Part II - Drew's Cobra

Yep Tom you were right!

Stopped by Drew's this afternoon and he said, "Let's take my Cobra for a blast!" We took a ride down to Carrollton taking a nice leisure drive in 75 degree sunny afternoon. Then it happened.....the car just shut off and Drew coasted into a parking lot. What, a fuel pump out......or something else? Called David for the trailer and then thought could we possibly be out of gas? Gas guage says full but????? We called Tom Meadows and he balsted over and yep, bone dry!!!!!After a quick fill up we were on our way and that is when the fun began. David, Thanks for getting the trailer and starting down!

Drew took me for a pretty exciting ride and then pulled over and said, "Your turn!" I have to tell you guys, I've had three pretty fast Cobras the last one being a 600+ HP, 514 big block and I couldn't believe the power to weight ratio of this car. Yea it's got 630 horse but it is so streetable.......but more important it gets the power to the ground. Keith Kraft has the tork curve coming in perfect for a Cobra and when you stick your foot in it, it flyes, plastering you back into your seat. I have to say, "I'm truely impressed and has confinced me to reconsider a big small block stroker for my next Cobra! Maybe if all these guys interested in Drew's car play around long enough, I can gather up the funds to just buy this one. WOW What A Day!!!!!!!!!!
