Looking for the Cobra Rollover Video
Has the thread concerning the Cobra rollover video taken by a trailing car been removed? I was hoping to save it for reference. I believe the driver's name was Eddy. Thank you! Bob

From Wade Chamberlin via the FFCobra site
the car is owned by Lee Dahmer (Sterling Replicars) and the driver was Katherine Lindsey (mechanic/builder for S.R.). Thankfully, she walked away from the crash.

Thank you!
Thanks to PatrickT and Maricopa for generously taking time to help me. I am very thankful the driver walked away! Wow!
The thread associated with this video had some driving advice. One participant represented a driving school, as I recall.
Does anyone know where that thread is? I tried searching it, but no luck.
Thank you, Again!! Bob

Bob-
That thread was posted on the temporary server. We moved back to the regular server the other day. They are trying to move all of the info from the temp server over to this one, but there are no guarantees it will make it. Keep your fingers crossed.

This is Lee Dahmer's car on a happier day with Lee Dahmer driving it this time.

It was most likely due to an inexperienced driver pushing too much car too hard. Lee has more track miles on that car than most will ever see on the street. He let someone else drive it that day.

Looks like to me, the back end broke loose from a downshift. Worse, was it was coming over a slight hill, lightening the back tires even more.
The steering wheel was still pointed outward, setting up the turn, but not yet into it.
Unfortunately, I speak from experience. Fortunately, I stayed right-side-up.
Glad everyone was okay. The car can be fixed.
