I have done a few events and will be doing a full season this year. After much discussion they placed me in EMOD. There are some fast cars in EMOD.

Cal is right about the civics etc. I am usually one of the slower cars in the entire event. Autocross generally is not kind to Cobras, unless they are set up for autocross. If they are set up for autocross they are competitive. But my BFG radial TA and chassis setup will always keep me out of the winners circle.

But it is a fabulous way to learn car control at the speeds that most of us encounter on the street and highway. I always heard that Cobra will swap ends on you faster than any street car out there. I found the over steer in my car to be very progressive and controllable. So long as I was gentle with the loud peddle! I remember my first laps in Formula Ford. That car swapped ends on me so fast that I didn't even realize it until I was looking the wrong way! Of course those are higher speeds than you will ever see in Solo II and the faster you are going, the faster you loose it!

Have a ball
