Here's a shocker...
Less than a year ago, there was a "shootout" in one of the (two) Kit Car
mags. It was a "bring your own" type, I don't know if any were "factory" built
(turn-key) ones. One guy brought a Cobra Replicar with #@|| under the hood! I
can't remember the configuration, but it was BIG! (I think around 500CI!) I
think it had nitrous oxide injection too. It had discs (brakes) larger than some
tires! The result was 0-100-0 in UNDER 12 SECONDS!!
Now doesn't _that_ sound like a hair dis-coloring treatment machine!
Later,
Kevin
