Klayfish,,,yup I can tell "you been there", ha ha. The course setup is different everytime. Mostly it DOES favor tires and suspension and GOOD driving technique. Once in awhile I can really take advantage of the horse power, sometimes it's not even a factor! Course times here vary from 50 sec's to 2 minutes! Some guys like the LONG layout (ME), some don't. Longer track generally favors more horse power.

A Cobra can indeed be competitive and post some impressive times against the "cones". Seems by the time guys move up to SCCA open track events their WAY more serious and the cars reflect that. Hard to compete against a guy who is WILLING to trade paint when I am NOT!
