The damage pot holes do...

[Gunner]

Not a Cobra, but several years ago we were on our way to the airport for a family trip at oh-dark-thirty. There had been a tremendous rainstorm overnight but it had stopped, so no one thought anything of it. Just before the freeway onramp I hit a real headbanger of a pothole from a washout, and thought, "uh-oh..."

My wife was right behind me in a Volvo with 19-inch 40-series tires. The pothole (which I later looked at - it had a slope down into it leading to a 3-inch sharp curb on the exit) shredded both tires on that side and cracked one rim. She continued onto the freeway (not much choice) and drove it two miles to the next exit on disintegrating rubber. The low-pros concealed the damage in the dark and on a smooth highway... for a while.

That was just the beginning of a fun, fun day getting 8 people across the country...

Our pot holes around here are legendary as some small vehicles get lost in them.

But the only damage I have ever had is knocking the front end out of alignment and that was when going slow and trying to avoid any pieces of pavement that may still be laying around where the street used to be paved. I had my Cobras suspension very well built up and with the 12 way adjustable shocks was able to adjust it for these streets until I got out to better ones then I would take a few seconds and adjust it back.
