There are a bunch of great guys around here with Cobras.
If you need any help, I am great at supervising and drinking beer LOL
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind and will make sure the fridge is stocked if you ever come over. I'll look forward to meeting some of the local characters.

Regards,

Kevin

Default What type of crash are you most likely to have?

One that starts out with throttle-induced oversteer, followed by an overcorrection or two by the driver, then a snap spin. If you're lucky, you won't hit anything, and will only have to clean out your shorts. If not ...

My advice to avoid an accident? GET SOME TRACK TIME at a high performance driving event. Cobras handle and drive like few other cars. They are lethal, especially with the overpowered engines we all love to put in them. Find your limits in a relatively safe environment.

When I lived in WV I would have said hitting a deer was my best chance of an accident. Here in NC I think the best chance of an accident is being hit by an undocumented immigrant or a female teenager who is texting.
