Hi Peter,



I checked my Cobra last night and it is four inches all around off the ground at floor height. About 110mm.

I have flat plate right through from the firewall to the rear below the tank.

The option of playing with shocker adjustment is the cheapest and easier option right now. Then I will try the springs as this suggestion makes sense.

I do not experience this problem of floating or drift until I am at about 140 - 160 ( 85 - 100mph ). Then it does get a little bit hard to hang onto if road surface is un even.



Mike Moore has organised some track time at Calder Park so I may get out there. The other option is to get someone else to drive it and this seems the way to go.

May be a day or two before I get to take the Cobra to McDonald's Racing as it pouring here. Will Post once I have some feedback.

Thanks again everyone for the feedback. Pete thanks for placing this Thread. As I said I thought it was me (Perhaps it is)



Cheers

Bernie
