Mr. Hudgins:
My comment wasn't totally clear. I wasn't saying that you were telling me what I can and can't handle, only that there are several on this forum that do. My statement was, that if people want to add safety items to a Cobra, I am all for it. I think that traction control is awesome (as long as it can be turned of...). However I disagree that anyone getting a 600 + horsepower is not going to be able to handle it. I don't think most wrecks in a Cobra come from "losing control" due to the power getting away from the driver.
Mr. Casaleenie:
The point was, "we don't know what really happened". I have driven many "fast" cars on the street and I know it is not uncommon ( in fact, very common...) to have a car pull up next to you wanting to race and then they "punch it" to show you what they have and to get you to want to race. I have seen on two occasions someone get "out of control" and get out of the throttle in a situation were I am just driving along minding my own buisness. I had a guy once in a early 90's GT Mustang (sounded like a really strong 351 c.i. engine) follow me through a stop light and proceed to "race me" (I was driving normal, and was NOT racing this guy in any shape or form of the word). He roars past me and then I hear the engine go "BOOM", it was night so you could see parts flying and everything.
