Wow, with all of patrickt's hyperbole and chest pounding I was ready to put my car for sale on Cobra Country and get in line to get an ERA.

After all--according to patrickt--craftmanship on all CSX 4000s is shoddy, SPFs suck, and ERAs are clearly the best Cobra replica available.

How about just driving your car and enjoying it for what it is...that's what I do.

Don't worry, RodKnock's teaching me to be calm. Stentor -- you might add to that statement the potential danger that some of the changes that you see in Kirkhams are beginning to take them away from being a Cobra replica. They are quickly becoming "their own car." Some might like that, some might not.

Ah, yes...a replica that makes so many improvements over the original product that it becomes a completely different (better) car than the original--and therefore is no longer a good replica. I knew there had to be something wrong with Kirkhams, as well.
