First Cobra drive
After nearly three years of build, I finally drove my ERA Cobra yesterday. It was absolutely thrilling to run that sucker up Rt. 70, then after gassing up I drove several more miles down 68. Everyone I passed either gave the thumbs up or waved. If it wasn't for a soft brake pedal, I'd have stayed out all evening (the rain came a little later). All other systems worked great (temp never exceeded 190, no leaks, etc.) The wait was worth it and I can't wait till I take it out again after I fix the brakes. New pics are in my gallery.
