Bern,
Its all down to personal preference and why you want such a car in the first place.
Personally, I think without a "scaffold cage" as in Greg's and Scotty's you are risking it somewhat on a track, but as Jason says drive within your limits and all's well. Yet I would question how many DO drive within their limits.
Personally there is nothing better than jumping in the car on a sunny weekend and simply enjoy the freedom of open top motoring.
Oh and soaking in the admiration from most people.
Drive a Ferrari or Merc and see the resentment.
Drive a Cobra and watch the admiration.
From young kids to grannies - all seem to love the Cobra!
You can't knock it - It's good for the ego
