[DMXF]

Sal makes a good point in that the Cobra was cut short of its full development. I also seem to remember reading that the Cheetah's suffered from poor aerodynamics and suspension design flaws that probably would have limited all out racing success. The only real thing it seems to have going for it is power to weight ratio. That 215mph sounds questionable and I wouldn't believe it unless substantiated by evidence and solid, proven analysis. I'm sure it's a fun car to drive though, especially if the new versions have design improvements to address some of the issues.
