You gotta get some more friends with that monster in your garage.

I took a friend's wife out for a drive last summer and she wanted to see how it went from a standing start, because she has a big block 68 Vette. I've known both of them for 20 years.

So on a deserted road, I dropped the clutch at about 4K RPM. After the Cobra wheelhopped badly and did a 180 and almost slid off the street into the woods, I was a little embarrassed, surprised and startled. I had NEVER done that before (nor since). My friend's wife exclaimed "That was fun ... let's do it again!"
