I realize some of you like to stir-the-pot; I have been known to do the same, God knows. Just for clarification in regards to my first post...I assumed the original motor/drivetrain was in #3170 when I made that comment. I mean, who the hell races an original car...puts a full-blown race motor in it? I guess Bruce does! Either way, that car is so far away from how it was built originally, at least fundamentally, it falls under the "outlier classification" I have mentioned several times before.

Now if Bruce is actually claiming his GT3 is even close to the Cobra's performance than it will be a good (maybe great) time. I guarantee you we'll be sipping beers and telling stories before the weekend is over. I have honestly been trying to get to RA for the last couple years - this little fun contest might just provide the impetus needed to get there next year.

Have you ever seen KMP259 in person? Morris has done an amazing job but it does not qualify for being anything close to an original competition Cobra of the 60's! Nothing.

PS: History will show here that I do not lose challenges...have you acquired a taste of your own words?

Bruce's on-track competition...good luck Sir!


No less spartan than a competition Cobra...but a hell of allot more comfortable.
