Guys, you're making it sound like an SPF handles like a 4000lb Caddy on a race track. There is nothing wrong with the suspension set up on SPF cars; in fact, it's very good. Are they heavier cars than an FFR? -Absolutely. But throw a set of good rubber underneath you - or put on a set of 17" rims and performance tires (like most FFR's have) and the SPF handles just fine.
If memory serves, Doug Reed's SPF won at Car & Driver's One Lap of America 2 years in a row. Plus, Dennis Olthoff won quite a few races (including the Run & Gun) in his SPF Cobra before switching to racing a Brock Coupe.
-I believe both Cobra's ran on 17" rubber.
