First real drive
At last the Cobra is back from trimming and I got to drive it properly for the first timeon the weekend. Wow. Going to need a new bottle of brave pills. Suspension felt very nervous. partly fixed that by adjusting dampers off minimum but still think work required on spring rates, bump steer etc.
Sure accelerates hard , should improve with edit and tuned length exhaust.
Brakes felt odd as there is no booster and with braided lines the pedal dosent really move, you just add more pressure and you stop.
Cooling system worked well. fan only comes on when stopped. Electric water pump kept temps around 85 celcius but will need to relocate pump cotroller sensor as the temp goes too high initially before settling down once water is circulating.
Lifes good.
