The speeds quoted were from the 60s ,185 at Road America, check the record books, any Cobras running those speeds then? 215 at Daytona, best I've heard a Cobra run there is 198, back in the day. The Cheetah was no slouch back then, even with it's drum brakes, and so called poor suspension/aero, and only 4-5 cars being run. Fergettabout comparing todays cars, too many variables. Deep enough pockets for development and an ace driver, I'll go Cheetah. There's a Cobra on everycorner, hell I leave mine out in the alley all winter.
