04 COBRA AutoX Video

[dhummm]

Hi All,
Here is a video of my 2004 Cobra at a recent AutoX at Devens in Ayer MA. I haven’t done many links so I hope it works. The video gives you a pretty good feel for the SVTOA autocross events. The out side vid is the same section as the very end of the in car section. Photobucket turns the quality into crap but you will get the picture, I guess I need to get my own dot com or something. If anyone knows where to upload high quality vids please let me know, I have a bunch of vids in high quality.

Gotta Love that Blower Wine…….

Enjoy,
Ralph

You have some finely honed skills. Excellent driving, nice hand work on the wheel.

Great driving dhummm. I didn't hear you hit any cones so I think you did well. Seeing the outside footage of your car shows that the car handles better then I thought. Any mods to your suspension? It sounds like you have a Bassani exhaust too... :shrug: I could be wrong. ;-)

 

[slickjsmooth]

Damn man you sure can drive, Cobra sounded great too

 

[PIXER]

Nice, whats w/ the heat vents on your hood? what does it say? Is that a photochop or do u really have that on the car?

That was some good driving. Nice and smooth carried a lot of speed for a "wide" autoX car.

Thanks again guys, it does pretty good. The incar section is about 2/3 of the run (approx 1.7 miles). I cut some out to shorten up the vid, it was too long to post on photobucket. There are two other 03/04 Cobras that beat me at the autoX. I'm still trying to get my arms around driving it, it's better than I am.... Last weekend I broke the top of my strut off braking really hard with sticky tires on it (bummer). The good news besides no to much other damage is I got to drive a Viper for three runs, a mini & a 325is. The autoX group is a great bunch, helped trailer my car home and let me drive their cars, pretty cool bunch.
