    Hey, thanks for the warm welcome folks! Forgot to mention another car owned previously: an ERA Cobra (552 hp / 553 lbs-ft / 2600 lbs). Not sure how I forgot this one; it took me 10 years to complete the build, and get it on the road.... Anyway, I'm in the delicate stages of learning about my...
