When designing chassis you almost always start locating the wheels first....and design the suspension and chassis to to the desired track and wheelbase needed.
Thanks for the information, but I am slightly confused? The rear fiberglass to fit tires is over 5" wider that the front. Now, if the rear axle is wider, then then rear wheel won't have as deep of a dish to get the wheels to fit under the fender. I just don't see how any Cobra has its front track wider than the rear, unless I am missing something, and trust me, I am as dumb as people say I am....lol
