isn't that the case for many of us! I knew the cars would be something special, even then...but the Nav called and I answered.
On the other hand, that car was so damn dangerous...wheels coming loose, clutches failing, etc...that I probably would have met my maker long before now. That car had a 428 which didn't run well then, and having since had a contemp w/SO motor...well, no comparison between the two. Back in those days, we had a bunch of cobra owners who rather regularly met up at Elkhart Lake to attend the races, and each time there seemed to be one who didn't show...usually because he had crashed somewhere. Dangerous cars, especially for a punk kid like I was :>)
