Funny you should bring this up when you did. Last weekend I met up with a friend of a friend and chatted for about a couple of hours about his Cobra build. He then took me for a short drive. We ended up at a café for a coffee but it had recently closed. When we returned to the car he tossed me the keys. Needless to say, I drove it like a Nanna. Combination of bumpy roads, traffic, more power than I had ever seen, fear of crashing his pride and joy and fear of the insurance dramas. We then swapped back and he showed me what it was capable of. To quote the Hamster "I think a little bit of wee came out..." I was so impressed with the power and the grip. Thanks to Geoff in Canberra for the experience. It was great to get an appreciation of the feel, height, narrow footwell, unlimited visibility, heavy steering (only when slow), heavy brakes, gorgeous sound, wind in the hair pants on fire feel etc. Loved every second of it. I'M HOOKED!!!!!
