The 2nd production run of 03 Cobras has a programmed break in period of 500 miles. During this time, the car is detuned to force the owner to properly break it in. Or it could simply be there to keep the dealerships from ragging on the car. I report, you decide.

Traction Control cuts the throttle for about a second, and applies the brakes momentarily. The wheelspin light will come on for 4 seconds. I pretty much turn it off unless it's raining.

Shalane r0x0rs.

Traction control owns me on a road course. Interesting to see what a Cobra feels like running on like 4 cylinders.
