I am sure you could contact the Olthoff's or Superformance and they would meet you at the track of your choice. It is the CSX crowd that is always saying how great their 35 year old suspension design is and how it just can't be improved. I have driven a CSX and several Superformance Cobra's and the chassis wasn't even close. The crazy thing is that the 427 Cobra was not liked by 99% of all of the professional race car drivers that raced it at the time and they STILL say they don't like it. All of a sudden 35 years later, the chassis becomes "worldclass" and "un-improveable". Don't shoot the messenger, ask ANY of the Shelby race car drivers of the past (that aren't on his payroll now...) and they will tell you the same. I am sure your going to tell me now that chassis for the new Ford GT is nowhere close to the "original" GT 40 chassis. It's time you all prove it...

What makes you think that the Superformance Cobra's can't come with a fuel cell, what car did you own?
