Default My favorite Christmas present

So although delivery will be a week or so after Christmas I am giddy with excitement over my favorite Christmas present (albeit from myself).

Jay at Vintage Motorsports posted the dyno video of my car on the VMS Facebook page last night... BDR #1474 was built specifically for Arizona's 91 octane gas (vs other states' 93 octane) with lower compression and different heads than normal yet still puts out 470 HP at the rear wheels! I can't figure out how to post the link to the video directly but it is the only video on the page posted 12/24.

Can't wait to meet all of you AZ Cobras after I get my car!

If she meets the wives and girlfriends of gang members, she will know. Remember what happens in the Arizona Cobras do NOT stay in the Arizona Cobras.

Congrats and Google Dr Hal Copple's quote about owning a Cobra.
Respect it and be safe!
