Great looking car - Congratulations! If it were my car, I might want to fire that one guy with his foot on your sidepipes

That's a pretty car.

And, yes, the guy that put his shoe on the sidepipe needs to have his azz kicked.

"Yours truly at 6'4" space is no problem"

I don't know buddy. Looking at the relative heights of the roll bar and your dome; hmmmmm, better make sure you keep the rubber side down! LOL

Really SA the car looks great! I've been looking at that same combo with the exception of a red interior. Congrats man, now go beat on it and have fun!!

Thanks Guys,
As for the relativity of my skull to the Roll bar, I was sitting in a rather upright position as Tony was still to adjust the pedals to my length which would lower my overall height............
But I intend keeping the rubber side down ....so no sweat there.
I cant wait for next week so I can actually drive her.........she is on the BDR stand at a local motorshow untill then...........

Where is your other rollbar, Brudda? Think about it... you won't be by yourself in the cockpit for very long!!! If ever...

BTW, I am 6'1" and scoot the factory seat one notch forward on #139 to get the right pedal throw.

I took your posted pic and did a horizontal 180 and it looks just fine to me.

Nice to see another "little guy" in a Cobra.

I'm 6'5", but I think there's another SA guy that's 6'6" in a Backdraft, Tommy Osborne, if I remember correctly, who currently holds the BDR record.

Many happy safe miles to you!

Cheers!
Dave
