There must be a story coming up here about "Red Light George"

You know the quickest time I saw there was when he packed the Cobra away in the trailer and I was standing there after it was tied down. George thought he was done for the day.



They called his name asking him to come to the line for his final round. He flew into the trailer and had the Cobra out in record time. Think he still had that "RED" up?

Cheers

Bernie

Bernie Knight YOUR RIGHT!!!! That's our George. I think he is going to run for Govenor of Neb pretty soon. He is lucky, they had major stroms in his area. It's the bad time of the season for them. 60 miles away tornados touched down, couple of people where killed. He is OK. Has a new building going up. Meet the new Kit Car editor, California sweety,the perfect tan man, He plans to take the mag in a new direction O'Boy. Will have to wait and see. Hope the car and family are doing well. Your son is sneaking the car out at night, How do you think he got the hot looking girlfriend. Stay safe, have fun, I am going to look for a job today Rick Lake

Hey Rick

Don't go getting a job now. You will not have time for the Cobra re builds there.

Perhaps we can do some more work on that contraption that drips "Georgia Moonshine' out.

Cheers

Bernie

Finally tried out the car in pure street trim:

11.13 @ 129.7 mph

1.951 60ft time

285/40/17 Yoko A509 tyres @ 32psi

3.0:1 rear gears

Full street exhaust, pump gas, full throttle for last 0.9 of a second of the run.
