Question. Isn't it correct that there should be some natural "Helicopter" action evident, particularly off the line? I havent driven my cobra too hard yet, 514 with Ford 9 in, powertrac locker and Mosers, but I know if I give it too much gas in second, the rear end will kick out to the right (counter clockwise) a little bit. There is no "pull" evident in the front end. It just pretty much rises and snarls. But I understood, particularly with a fixed rear end/locker that as you lose traction, the torque created by the engine would cause the rear end to "kick out" a bit.
