Cobra Driving Takes Skill

[FFRCobraMike]

Yes, he came out of the accident fine, but the car is a total wreck. I think about how easy it is to get my car sideways if I was not paying attention all the time. It is easy to take these cars for granted, but it only takes a second to lose control. The guy that built my engine, built the same engine for another Cobra owner. He was telling me about the car when i first went up there. When i went back a few weeks later to pick up the engine, he said the other guy lent his car to a friends son. The kid took it by his high school and goosed it. He lost control and wound up smashing it into a semi truck. The kid was very lucky, he only broke a few bones. The car was not as lucky. It too was a total wreck. It is just another example of how having this much power at your disposal also takes a certain amout of skill and responibility. How does that saying go? "With great power, comes great responsibility". I think that is how it goes. It is so easy to give these cars just a bit too much throttle and it starts to break loose. So if you are not ready for it, boy can things go really wrong really fast.
