Mulv's right, they're not that hard to drive if you pay even a little bit of attention. IMO it's only a matter of time before these things are essentially uninsurable. I've lost count of the ones wrecked just in our little AZ Cobras club. Spun out on the freeway (while leaping the median!), driven off the road into the desert, stuffed into a mountainside on a curvy road, etc., etc.
And Ernie, if you're losing traction in 2nd gear while crossing the light let off the gas a little OK? Mine has a warmed over 302, a T-5, 3:55 gears and 10yr old T/As and the idea that I can't give it a little gas in 2nd gear without spinning the rear tires is ridiculous. Will it break loose if I stomp on it? Sure, but not under normal circumstances.
