Got a bit of trailing throttle oversteer there, I'd increase the front roll resistance and maybe take a dab of rear brake off it. If you left foot the brake going in, you can add some gas pedal then the butt is wanting to rotate and it'll straighten back up. It's like dynamically balancing the brakes with the gas pedal. It's relly best to set the car up to understeer just a little under brakes going in, at the limit it just pushes a little wide, a good driver can work with that easier.
I used to autocross race a Porsche 911 in SCCA amateur events.
This 'regal snake' however is my FAVORITE wanna-have car! Like American MUSCLES in a British AC ballerina. I have 2 full-size poster prints, one a cut-away of the aluminum body showing the tubular skeleton frame and slanted radiator of the big 427 ... I wanna build one one day ... (in my wildest gasoline dreams) Oh, the music of a Shelby's pipes ... Thanks Losjaros!
LOL what I'd like to know is...how ford even got there name on this,,,mmmm cuz some grate gear head by chance put a ford motor INTO THIS >> "SUNBEAN TIGER" AWW YES MADE BY THE BRITS....ford lol
Sunbeam tiger? Its an AC Ace.... if you are going to get all cocky about the body and chassis being British you might want to get your facts straight. (which was modified and made better by Shelby, just like he turned the mustang into a good drivers car from what basically was a girls car, and the GT40 for that matter.)
I always love when people say the Cobra is British, like anyone even knows what an AC Bristol (ACE) is. Had it not been for Shelby, the Bristol would have been a memory. Of course, the original Land Rover was actually a Jeep chasis with a British body-so there.
LOL I'd like to know how ford even got there name on this,,,mmmm cuz some grate gear head by chance put a ford motor INTO THIS >> "SUNBEAN TIGER" AWW YES MADE BY THE BRITS....ford lol whats even funnyer...theres more "CHEVY" 327s an 427s in these then fords lol...
This is a Contemporarycobra. The name of the company thatmakes this car.... The comtemporary repilca cobras were built I believe in new york and went out of business a few years ago... Are you born stupid, or do you grow into it? When I get home remind to slap your your momma in the face..... Owner Superformance cobra #429. Now go read a book.
leave the poor man alone, this is a late cobra, very rare (if not a kit-remake) a fun run, emphasis on fun, and hes having a laugh, just because you losers cant afford one, and drive modded honda civics all day doesnt give you the right to take the piss! cars are about having fun, racing is for driving skill, and as far as i can see....hes not racing u morons. nice video losjaros!
Does any of the assholes here even know their shit about Cobras? Do you realize that if this car in the video is ACTUALLY a real one out of about 21 true Cobras that raced in the circuits, that this car is worth more than your house, and everything in AND around it? He's driving carefully because if he crashes it, he has to fix it. Which means spending ALOT of money.
Enjoy your car! The world is full of morons who (fortunatly) will never own one of these, but will put your driving down to pump themselves up. Just enjoy, as you were doing in this video!
Awesome car and i see you like to have fun haha. I bet these so called 'experts' on driving who post here haven't even driven RWD in their life before. Keep up the good work!
That thing sounds so beautiful, it makes the hair on my neck and head stand up. It's not a shitty car or driver, it's hard to control a car so powerful yet that light you nit witts...
I never said I could drive the car better, so maybe I would, indeed, be the shittiest driver ever behind the wheel of a Cobra. But until someone tossed me the keys to one, I'll continue to stand by my comment. Now go find your sense of humor!

Super looking car, I'm not sure I could do any better diving a REAL Cobra on a track. I would be too worried about wrecking it.

a typical case of too much money and not enough knowledge and balls to drive this car as it should be driven! what a f..king amateur!

I am showing a cobra on a racetrack on a fun run.
I am not showing off my driving skills.
Driving was lots of fun, which is what it is all about to me.
