I have a Lone Star with a 94" wheel base. The extra four inches are in the cockpit. But I don't think the wheel base has a lot to do with the pedal postion in most Cobras. I build my car so it would fit me. I'm 5' 10" and have an adjustable seat with the pedals set up for me. I twisted the seat just a little so I would square up with the steering wheel and pedals. I moved the gas pedal about 2" to the right. Some Cobras feel like I'm sitting sideways in them. The pedals are far to the left. Take a little time to get use to them. But, The more you drive them, the better they feel.

74 degree today, took a 135 mile trip to get some ice cream, nice. Watch Coach blow a Carrera away three times. The big block will do it everytime.
