The question that first pops into my mind when I think of an AWD Cobra is WHY? I can think of three reasons, but none of them make much sense.
1. To improve track performance. But it seems to me you'd have to go long way to beat the performance Bruce Cambern has extracted from his RWD setup.
2. To handle better on snowy/icy roads. Suicide by Cobra.
3. To show it can be done. OK, that's the reason behind a lot of things tried by men. But let's not pretend it makes good sense.

My thoughts on why do it? Every cobra is realy fast. Its nothing to hear of a 500 or 600 hp cobra that will do a 11 sec quarter mile. Now imagine up at the starting line doing a long smokey burnout with the rear wheels, stop, get reset, click it into 4wd and put all that nasty grunt right down to the pavement. I think we're taking an already ridiculous car and making it even better. Hehehe

By the way, where did the monster truck cobra picture come from? Is that real or is it just somebodys imagination? If it's real I think it's something I need to see in real life. lol Thanks for all the replies by the way guys!
