Too the OP that said a cobra, have you driven one? My friend built one and I tuned it. It was the most miserable car ever. You have to be 5'3" or shorter to even consider fitting in one. We are both 6'+ and legs would cramp up after 5 minutes. It was a fun car making 450rwhp in a 2100lb car but completely miserable to drive. He sold it and doesn't regret that at all.

Yes I have and it was some of the most fun I have ever had in a car! I'm only 5'8 and I fit just fine. I burned the shit out of my calf on the sidepipes though but it was worth it.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
