Interesting people you meet in a Cobra
Out for a drive in NJ today and met an incredible gentlemen out in his 450 hp BDR Cobra. This very eager, driver was running this car on hand controls as he was wheel chair bound...unbelieveable..but true. Talked to him a bit and he remarked that the car, when it was blown, turned in the low 12's @128mph. In an attempt to do alittle touring together, found him to be a very, very eager driver that thoroughly enjoyed his car.

Thats pretty cool ! I hope you steered him to the site for a visit.
I would be interested in seeing the setup just out of curiosity.

What color was the car? Very interesting... I did see a hand control car being prepped in Florida awhile ago. Wonder if this is the one?

Interesting people...
I checked with the gentleman, the car is a Midstates (now merged? with Shell Valley. he is very willing to share his build with others with handicaps. Sorry for the misinformation
