I'm new to this forum, thought I'd use this thread to introduce myself.

I'm Alan, I live in Buckinghamshire, England in the UK.

My user name comes from the brand of kit and chassis of my car.

Great forum you have here.

My wife has always indulged me when it comes to cars. Whenever I start talking about cars, my wife shakes her head and says “you’ve got the bug.”

In the early 80’s, I built and raced a G Production MG Midget in SCCA's San Francisco region.

In the early 90's, I raced an ITC Class Datsun 510. I ended up having a spectacular crash coming down the back stretch at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma. I flipped the car multiple times. Luckily I walked away without a scratch, but came to the realization that unless I had more money than I knew what to do with, my racing days were over.

Two of my dream cars have always been the Porsche Speedster and the Cobra. In the late 90’s, I decided I really wanted a Speedster Replica, so I bought one from a guy in Orange County. The car was beautiful and fun to drive, but it was it gutless so I only kept it for a few years.

Well, fast forward a couple of years and the “bug has bitten” again. This time the Cobra Bug is biting at my wallet.....and I can’t wait!!

Obscure reference to my West Tennessee roots via Elvis and an odd art house movie, as well as taken from a line in an equally obscure b-side song from my favorite band, U2. Plus it just sounded cool.

Hi Alan, aka Ram427Cobra, welcome to CC, are you the same Ram427Cobra on CRC? I prowl around there under Fuzzy and it has been good fun, particularly with the Cobra Wars re. the Python...hope you enjoy your stay here, if you get a bit miffed with the American slang, give a hollar...

I raced for about 18 years, from formula Fords to Barber-Saab to Indy Lights. I stopped in 1996, my last race was at the Molson Indy in Toronto where I broke a ring and pinion on a restart. In that race Castro Neves and Tony Kanaan took each other out (and they were team mates). Christiano da Matta won the race.

The Indy Lights cars were awesome- 450hp in a 1370lb car and tons of torque. I still miss them.

Fake Snake
Fake + Snake = "It's not REAL"
But I got that rhyme going there, don't I!

My Black Lab named " Pete" was bit by a rattlesnake many years ago.

We both lived to talk about it and his name got longer.

New on this forum.

This is my first name, but as a Norweian it is a common name.

There are only 15 AC cobra's in Norway and not legal with kit cars. When mine got in to the country it was approved due to a mistake by the goverments (lucky me)

The car is a Unique 289 FIA (347 stroker from DSS racing with Paxton 93 supercharger and holley 950 commander FE)
