Newbie checking in
Hey All,
My name is Dan and my new project is a FIA 289 Cobra. Number from SA is CSX7076. She hopefully should be running and on the road end of June.
Looking forward to all the helpful tips you guys have to offer as this a new game for me.

Thanks Tim.
She's getting a T5 gearbox. Nothing else added that's unusual. I did add a quick release steering wheel. The cars hard enough to climb in so we added that option.
Here's a pic of the cockpit.
