The chart is a complete crock made by a Backdraft person to promote Backdraft replicas.
Backdraft looks on par with Unique and Superformance???
Only if you set the BDR's bulging, butt-heavy look as the high standard. If the actual look, proportions and stance of a Cobra are used as the standard, Backdraft gets a generous "2" in that department. Unique would rate a "4.5" right behind ERA.
Backdraft's average score higher than CSX, SPF, ERA and Unique???
Not on this planet, unless again BDR and not the Cobra itself is set as the standard all manufacturers aspire to replicate.
Nothing against BDR or the folks that love them, they are a nice "Cobra like hotrod" but don't try to pass off marketing hype as objective Cobra replica evaluation. Please don't take this as an attack on Backdraft, just calling bs on the bs in the chart.
