I feel that my backdraft handles fantastic?

I don't have much experience with other replicas but I do feel my BDR handles very well fantastic actually.


just wondering what others with BDR experience & other brands feel about the difference?

BMW is known as the Ultimate Driving Machine. I like to think of the Backdraft as The Ultimate Driving Machine with 1200 pounds less weight and twice the power

yes , to me it feels like a formula 1 car not that I've ever driven one of those :-) , just wondering what some members that have driven multiple replicas feel.

"I don't have much experience with other replicas but I do feel my BDR handles very well fantastic actually."

I took a couple of two day driving courses on a local 1.2 track which included the instructor taking a few demonstration turns behind the wheel. It was great to see the what she could do in the hands of a pro and he was was very impressed with her power and handling. His exact words were "I've driven cars that cost a lot more than your Cobra and I wasn't nearly as impressed."

I believe that there might be a night and day difference between a Cobra replica with the original style suspension vs a BDR.
and I know there's guys on this forum that had both but for some reason have not commented.

I don't want to start a better or worse situation like with power assisted breaks vs non but I think it would be useful information for someone shopping for a different type of replica cobra

Do you have Wilwood brakes or any suspension upgrades?

I am glad a pro liked the car!
