Who still drives their cobra in the summer heat

[FredG]

I live in NJ and it gets pretty hot in the summer here. I use the car all the time. Car has a Roush 427r that has no problem with the heat or performance. Temp never gets above 190 on a 90 degree day. Having an FE might be another story though and that is one of the reasons I don't have one.

My 427 is a dart block windsor around 575hp. I have zero issues with overheating or anything of that sort. I’m just complaining as I can’t stand driving the car in warmer weather. Before we upgraded the car and rebuilt the engine it was the same sort, two local gentlemen with similar setups are of the same opinion in their cars.. If we get together in the summer it’s an 80 degree night. I can only assume we are similar to a Texas or Florida heat...you take a ride in 90 degree heat and 90% humidity and it feels like you have pulled 4 spark plug wires off the car compared to dry cooler temps. I guess I’m just a grouch and I wished I enjoyed the car in the summer.
