The gentleman that owns the USRRC Cobra that I work on has a great story about Watkins Glen back in 1979 (pre bus-stop). At the end of the straight going into 8 he was hitting over 175. He said the nose was so high up in the air it felt that the steering wheel had come detached from the wheels and he could hardly see over the nose. He had to be very careful getting onto the brakes to make sure the nose was settled before really getting on the binders. Definately a white knuckle ride :O)
