Care in driving a Cobra (The more power the more care!!) is essential and even after years of ownership (28 Yrs) they still surprise you sometimes. I recall overtaking at low speed in the face of oncoming traffic (still plenty of room) in second gear (gave it a bit of wellie) and as I turned in after overtaking I took my foot off the throttle too suddenly to avoid running into the car ahead and the tail stepped out. Must say it caught my attention and gave me a valuable reminder that any sudden moves on or off throttle will cause problems and also not to become too complacent.
