Going about 55-60 mph the other day when I see him coming up behind me. Comes along side and starts reving and looking at me with this cocky look on his face. So I drop it to 2nd and leave him like he was standing still. Have no idea if he even tried to follow. Not even a race, more like a lesson.

It hurts me to say this, but I have to sell my cobra. My wife and I are having a baby in june and she was just laid off. I spend about $700/month with insurance on the car and will not be able to afford it after the baby comes. So with a tear in my eye I come here for advice on how to go about...

Went to Etown for the first time with this car and had a very tough time to say the least. I dont know what the track conditions were like that day but this car would not hook for anything. And I baby it out of the hole!!! At about 4500 rpm in first, the rear-end hop sets in. At this point, you...

What do you guys use? I bought some eagle 1, applied it with their applicator and after 15 minutes of driving had black spots all over the side of the car. It flys right off the wheels onto the sides. You can even tell by looking at the tire that it is being thrown. So what do you guys use that...

Do any of you guys have a clutch pedal that is lose and moves side to side? Mine has some play in it and feels strange when driving. If I touch it with my hand I can move the entire pedal side to side. maybe 1/16 inch. Car has 2500 miles and I just noticed it. Thanks

Anyone going to this? Its on saturday 3/29. Us jersey guys need a get together as well!

I was replacing the rear brake pads on my car and removed the round emergency brake tension spring on the caliper to give myself more access. I know now that I could have left it on but that is hind sight. My problem is now I have no idea how to get that thing back on. No way in hell can I...

I am installing a set of EBC green brake pads and really need some help. First and most important problem is that the EBC pads are much thicker than the stockers. Therefore the caliper will not go onto the disc (not enough clearance). My problem is that I cant compress the brake piston. It wont...

I am replacing the headlight and foglight bulbs in my car and cant figure out how to remove the originals. Need some help with both the headlight and foglights. Thanks

I recently moved to NJ from NY and just had my first incident with the law. Here is what happened....I woke up in the morning, got dressed for work and went into the garage to get into my car and go to work. Well as luck would have it, my 03 cobra with 300 miles on it had a flat tire. I was...

My 03 has less than 1000 miles and the paint is very rough when sliding my figers over it. Should be smooth as glass I would think, but it isn't. There are no defects on the paint and it is shiny, but not what I expect a new car to be. Seems like this car was sitting outside for a very long...

I put a flomaster cat-back on my car and had to take off that weight that is bolted to the middle of the rear axle because one of the pipes would not clear it. Anyone know what this weight is for. I drove my car after removing it and noticed no vibration at any speed. I did not go over 100...
