Not Ranked
I have driven several of my customers cars---the small blocks were all kind of more nimble/quicker reacting to quick steering imputs. Out of a few various( RU, Shell Valley) with cast iron Fe engines,they seemed to vary more from the steering feed back from probably the castor settings. The Superformance big block cars felt just more heavy steering in the front than the lighter small block cars---probably the best as for driver feedback was Got Snakes small block BDR.
A point that needs to be considered is individual driver comfort levels---for an example I'll use Shifter karts, a common toy of F1 and Champ car drivers as they have a very high reaction factor to accel/decel turn inputs---One of our customers was very fast at Daytona, passing two drafting faster team karts on the back straight , but running lap times that were not up to par---upon examining data from the differentkarts, we discovered that no matter what track he was on, he always slowed down to aprox 60mph in the turns, as that was the g loading he was comfortable with----
However, to return to the Cobras, I think one very important thing that is being over looked is driver seating---does your seat fit and support your body so that you can feel the car????Are your pedals and steering wheel where they need to be for max performance driving or are they just comfy???
