A Cobra R That Gets Some Abuse

I need a cold shower now. :o

I have a new 2000 SVT Mustang Cobra R which I run at local autocross events and at high speed educational events.

I have installed a 6 pt cage, better gauges, a Kenny Brown diff cooler, and the new Bassani exhaust system designed for the Cobra R.

The car is a blast to drive and is very forgiving on a road course.

I know of a few people on the SCOA and SCMC lists that use their 93s, 95s and 2ks for road racing... Don't know if I could do it myself tho

I had heard from some people on the SCOA list that some of the replacement parts for the engine (can't remember which they were talking about) were a bitch to find.. for that reason alone I wouldn't race it
