Subject: What a ride! by Subman on 2008/1/31 17:52:53 Last November, the guy that makes the diecutting dies for me found out I run AX in my '91 and wanted to try it in 1 of his cars. He showed up at a practice in a screaming yellow Porsche 939 turbo. Kickazz car but as an AX car, the turbo kicks in way to early. Yesterday, he delivered a die and ask if I would drive his other car to check it out, seemed to be running rich. Out to the parking lot - and there is a replica 427 Cobra - 550+ HP and you could eat off any part of the car. The guy tossed me the keys and off we go. I drove it around a couple of blocks, jumped on once or twice, plenty of power, but it lacks that "push you back in the seat" power. It's running really rich so that sitting at a light it loads up. To get to take off ya gotta rev up the engine a couple of times to clean it out. Even running bad, what a rush to drive. I found out this guy has these 2 incredible toys and hasn't a clue what to do with them. He loves the cars but is kinda afraid to really drive them and has no ability to work on 'em. So, as soon as my kids get their stuff outta my garage (mid-March), the Cobra comes to visit me. Subman |
