Roland sez:

->Once in a Phoenix regional SCCA race my friend Paul Nygaard got beat in
->in Cobra fair and square by a TR4.  I think he's still trying to live
->that one down.

A couple of years ago at a Vintage race in Pueblo, CO, I got
watch Harvey Staab in a Formula Vee pass three of the four Cobras
in the race and was gaining ground on the fourth when the guy spun
off into the dirt trying to stay in front of him.  Harvey's had the 
the same car for 20 some years and drives it like he's pretty 
comfortable with it by now; really smooth, he basically takes
most corners flat out.  He got nicknamed "the mongoose" after
that drive.
