Hey Guys...me again.

I read the thread regarding the "muckracker" comment about Carroll. I would say that Carroll is a muckracker, and aren't you glad he is one. If it were not for him and his continious desire to push the limits, and to try and protect the car building legacy that he created, there would be nothing out there like it is now. The resurgency in Cobra attention is due to him. The man did more for this segment of the auto industry and the Cobra than any man alive or dead. It is true that a cobra existed before Carroll, but "The Cobra" never existed without him! The release of the Concept Cobra is again a break through in design and development that has no equal. This is a car that weighs a little over 3000 lbs, and is carrying a v10 capable of 604 hp. This is mind boggling!!

Guys, because Carroll is still alive and associated with the Industry and the Cobra, it will stay in the limelight. When he is gone, it will still be the limelight, and it will still be because of him. I am not dishing the replicas out there, but you need to give "The Man" his due, he deserves it, and He sure in the heck earned it!
