I never replied back after many inquiries to this thread from a while back, but here goes...The invitation to drive an actual car did not materialize; a few follow-up attempts, and then it fizzled out after 4-6 months of chatter. There was talk but no actual car to drive or invitation back then. Later on, other owners of CER cars who attended the Bash described their experiences as being pretty good on the track, so we just left it at that, but still have been curious to conclude this. However, an actual first hand comparison with similarly powered (500hp) cars is still something I certainly would be interested in doing with the understanding the final report would candid and to the point. Myself (ERA/Unique, others...), JMARSEY(JBL/FFR), PHOTOGUY(Arntz), SKIDMARC(SPF) and a few others were all ligned up ready to go and waiting; and still can be if the invitation presents itself. All of us have built and/or driven different make Cobras too, regularly, with more than just a few thousand miles on our cars, so in the original go at this, I felt it would be a fairly wide case of representation to give feedback. I'm still game, and I believe others would be if an updated invitation presented itself.
