We have not run him off just yet, perhaps he just does not have anything new to contribute to this thread at the moment.
Or he is learning that even in batches as little as 5, the specifications changed from cobra to cobra since they were not actually "mass produced" but hand built, one by one. Time will tell whether he chooses to continue his education or not.
Either way, I wish him well.
