Particularly when you consider some ICV kits here are quoted in at reaching over 30,000nm per degree. Though I can't claim to know their weight for the sake of comparison.
The problem with a Cobra replica that is a close visual copy of the original is that it it totally restricted by what will fit "under the skin". We are very limited by the space necessary for the driver and engine, in what is really a pretty tiny package. The JBL skirts this a little by being a little creative with the original dimensions. i.e. wider and longer.
In addition, this is an open car. Cars with roofs have a big structural advantage.
