I wasn't going to say anything, but I just cannot keep my mouth closed any longer.

You can't tell if the tires are spinning? When you shift from first to second it lunges forward? You are not shifting smoothly.

Maybe a new Corvette or a similar car with an automatic and traction control is more within your capability.

In an overpowered car like a Cobra, the throttle is not an off/on switch. You have to learn to modulate the throttle.

Okay, I'm being a little harsh. Sorry. But you really need to learn how to drive this car before you injure yourself or someone else.

If you can find an advanced performance driving course in your area where you can use your own car, take it. You will then be able to fully enjoy your car.
