She is back together and running great but winter came so she's on jack stands in the garage. I need to get a few hundred miles on the motor before switching back to full synthetic oil. I've got a few minor suspension mods on schedule. One of them is still in my trailer box at your place. LOL

Any chance you could roll the trailer one foot forward or backward to prevent flat spotting the tires?

Are you gonna get that yellow screamer out on the track this year? It's more fun going than showing. :cool:

p.s. Sorry about hijacking this thread.

Just my two cents.

Running the 1" spacers with 315's will cause problems in many Cobras as the outer edge of the fender will rub the tire. Works great though with the original width of wheel and stock size tire!

Yes mine was with the stock rim and tire size. Plus when you go to the wider tire it will track more with the groves in the road.
