Corky's CB/1 Featured on Autoblog
Strange how these things happen. Someone runs into someone, who talks to someone else, and next thing you know Autoblog is doing a feature on the CB/1.

Corky already has plans started for the CB/2.

I don't really like how they talked about its dyno #'s and failed to respect the suspension or engineering put into the car.
I've seen the car at MSR-C before, this was before I knew much about cars.

Exodus 20:17:
"Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house,"
Good so far...
"thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife,"
Still good.
"nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ***,"
I'm thinking we're in the clear...
"nor any thing that is thy neighbour's."
Dammit.

I've looked it over on the web plenty of times but never bothered looking at the pricing since I haven't been in a position to buy one. Wonder if I could get it as a kit? Seriously, the main thing keeping me from a Cobra kit is the fact that it's a shitty chassis on a shitty suspension. I mean, great for its time, but it's long since passed its prime and become obsolete, and modern grippy tires can only compensate for so many years of obsolescence. A clean-sheet redesign that put the old body on something that rode and drove like a modern ultra-high-performance car should drive would be AWESOME.

1 - Not as much as one might think
2 - More than most are willing to spend
3 - As soon as you can convince Corky to build it
4 - First option, Mary (Corky's wife). Second option, me; but that won't necessarily gain you the CB/1
I answer multiple questions monosymbolically when possible, but not exclusively. Thanks for playing!
