WOW.... this topic is now going to increase by many pages..... these are the pics everyone (well at least me) has been waiting for.

That set up is impressive...... and awesome to show of to friends...... "oh you aint seen nothing yet... come check out the boot!"

Wheels with dish.... am I seeing this right...... that is awesome. The body is perfect and the list goes on.....

Craig, you and your team are on the money... well done. I got so much more to say but it will sound boring..... well done.

I can see it today..... carsales.com now has more cobras for sale...... Pace has more orders coming.

I just love that.

leroy, you just know those billet bell cranks and suspension arms are going to polish up like a treat.

Yes deep dish rear wheels.

We have left no stone unturned in the development of this.

And wait, there are more surprises to come....

Enjoy.

I was like the proverbial "kid in a candy store" last week when Craig kindly took time out of his busy schedule to give me the tour of his magnificent new facility, interrupted almost at the conclusion by the arrival of a prospective customer!

I took the opportunity to have a good look around and saw all these mouth-watering "bits" carefully laid out on pristine benches and shelves-- rotors, calipers, shocks, pushrod suspension arms, wheels, even an amazing feather-weight boot lid--who knew a boot lid could be sexy? To see them now all mounted and assembled in a roller must be hugely satisfying for Craig and his team, the next step in a most exciting progression with more revelations for us to come, I'm sure.

I love the idea of the exposed rear suspension in the boot, but to have the pleasure of seeing it one still has to open the boot. Granted this will not precipitate a hernia given its lack of weight, but these cars deserve more than that. Forget the aluminium and even copper bodied Kirkhams, the Pace needs a transparent carbon composite body so that ALL its fantastic frame and workings can be viewed and admired and, yes, lusted after.

From my purely amateur perspective I believe that this car has the potential to revolutionize the Cobra recreation industry and to change the way Cobra enthusiasts think about their cars worldwide. The thorough research and the innovative design features make it a winner, and it is to Craig's credit that he has withheld it from production until he was absolutley satisfied that the car's design integrity was as sound as it could be. Time on the road and ownership of the early cars will hopefully provide the proof of the car's design parameters. Certainly the quality of construction, from what we've seen thus far, can not be faulted.

It's easy to wish Craig good luck, but you make your own luck in this life with diligence, honesty and persistence in following your dream. Best wishes to Craig and all at Pace. Things are about to get busy!
