What a awesome day , we took the cob out for its first drive today and I think I have found [the best handling cobra] with camber compensation and anti roll front and rear the car is like a big go-kart and the steering stability on rough and potholed country lanes is unbelievable and the ride is very comfortable and the chassis feels so stiff and rock solid it just inspires confidence, after working for Dax for 30 years and having driven most cobra replicas I have never driven anything that even comes near to it,
well done Mr Walker for such a fantastic bit of design work.

we made a new paton and mould like you say most high back seats we looked at just looked to big and we need high backs to get through the IVA test
