Thanks dscott! The relocated pivot point on the brake pedal makes all the difference in the world!
I took my Cobra out for a short spin ... up and down the driveway ... uh, "brisk" acceleration followed by oh sh*t braking. The brakes work like a champ.
I also have a new found respect for anyone who can briskly accelerate a Cobra without spinning the tires! I wonder if my wife will notice the rubber left on the driveway when she gets home tonight.
thanks again,
petek
