Were you taking it easy on that Porsche?? I believe you could've easily reeled him in and trounced him.

@lmorrow4 I was wathcing his lines...I had much more motor than he did as you can see when I catch up to the Porsche

this is the 427 model right? is it the s/c or the street model?? or is it the competition model?? either way, very nice car... :)

[DMoscoso2008]

@supra1722 Yes, the 427 SC with the side pipes.

wow, oil pressure really dropping in the turns, time for an Accusump eh?

Nice lines, good to see you climbing him going into the turns, Porsche brakes?, ha!

Are your brakes the standard SPF offering or upgraded?

[DMoscoso2008]

@SteveHandlebar In the video the car had the standard 4 piston Wilwood's

@surrynet no no i know ..

[surrynet]

@jusridenhi You are correct !!

[surrynet]

@jusridenhi ????, All we said was a TRUE Shelby Cobra had a speedodometer that went from right to left. In A kit car (replica,fake,generic, not the real thing,) car the speedometer goes in the normal direction. Didn't say anything about the looks. Most Replicas LOOKED EXACTLY like the ones in the sixties.but replicas were fiberglass which the reals ones weren't.,

[jusridenhi]

@surrynet THE COBRA FROM THE 60 S LOOKS LIKE NOTHING FROM THE MARKET OF TODAY .. IF YOU KINDA OF THINK ABOUT IT CAROLS COBRAS FROM THE EARLY DAYS OF RACING WAS IN A SENSE A WELL NO NOT A KIT BUT A CUSTOM PRODUCTION CAR ... A CAR FROM OUTSIDE THE USA AND AMERICAN HORSEPOWER IT WAS A GARAGE MADE CAR FROM A MAN WITH A DREAM AND SOME GOOD FRIENDS ... THERES OH FOUR OR FIVE COMPANYS MAKING SOME DAM GOOD COBRAS THESE DAYS

[jusridenhi]

I have owned a few cudas a chevelle or too and there a fun car to own and i will build another someday ..But i am saying this with all the honest inside me .. ive built a small block factory five with a eddie flora 302 and its the big rush and everything they say they are .. so if theres any non cobra lovers lol you have no dam idea what your missing ..

[supra1722]

@DMoscoso2008 nice you're a very lucky man even if it's a replica... nice car :)
