...with Randy 100%. At the age of 58, and with a few hairy incidents in my own vehicular past, I find myself being more careful BY FAR in the Cobra than in the truck! I really feel that I got this car at the RIGHT age (for me). I know myself well enough to know that it might not have been the best thing, were I to have bought a Cobra at age 30, let's say!
One thing I do is "explore" the handling/road-holding limits by solo autox-ing on huge vacant parking lots. It's sorta a race between low
oil pressure and front/rear end washout. I was amazed how easy these cars are to "catch"---also amazed how neutral the mid-engine Butler is---most grip-loss reads out as expanding radius and minor wheel-correction stuff. I intend to take a hi-perf. driving course ASAP---and hopefully pick the brains of people like Pat B., Cranky, et al if they're at DVSF III.
Good luck to all and commiserations to the unfortunate and unwary.
