Kirkham Owners Where Art Thou?

[Phx Mike]

Haven't seen a post in the Kirkham section since back in August. Everyone must be busy driving. I know I have been.

I have had my car for about 6 months now and have learned a few things:

- It drives terrific - especially when you push it a bit at speed. Understeer disappears and the car transitions to a very neutral feel esp with a half tank of fuel or less. I think mine needs a bit more caster though

- The limits are pretty high with the Avons. Takes a heavy foot on the throttle to break them loose even in a corner.

- The polished sections of the car are the easiest to take care of.

- Most often asked questions 1) is that a wrap? and 2) is that chrome?

- Dont run more than about 23-24 psi in the tires unless you want to lose your fillings.

- The most likely car to attempt to "test" you is a slammed Honda with a fart can. Everyone else seems to keep their distance

- The aluminum scratches very easily but polishes out very easily also.

- Folks over 60-65 adore this car. I drove thru the Sun City retirement community two weekends ago and I felt like a hero in a parade. Shouts, fist pumps and one lady in her 70's who literally ran up to me when I was stopped yelling that she Loved Cobras (she was driving an MG TD)

- The sound of a big FE at 6k rpm is a narcotic. And it is addictive.

- Did I mention that it drives terrific?
