One of the more famous racers once said it must have been perfectly balanced because once it started spinning, it went on forever. Or something to that effect.

Now in 993 land ...

 I learn something new every day. I did not know this thing existed. Looks like there are kit cars out there. That'd be fun over the run off the mill Cobra! G |

No drive shaft, kind of a mid-engine, 16 made, driver's legs got baked as the headers went OVER the legs.

This was my favorite slot car that we had in the 60's! We had a big track and I would always have to have the Cheetah when racing with my three older brothers.

A car from when men were men and driving was about taming the beast, not the beast taming you with electronic gizmos! I love that the exhaust headers burned the driver's feet....like the original GT40 where the driver sat ON TOP of the fuel tank because that was the best spot for a full fuel tank to keep the weight distribution of the car. I love it!
Thanks for posting that article, I had never heard of the Cheetah.

Cheetahs at Road America 2014
There was a Cheetah Reunion at Road America for The Hawk vintage races last year. They had the Lester building inside turn 14.
        I had not been aware of them until I read about the reunion at The Hawk.

Several of them even went into Elkhart Lake for the sports car Concours on Saturday.

Thou they are rarer that hens teeth... a Daytona coupe (kit car) would be much more practical. What is all that about headers touching the drivers legs/feet? Looks like they are outside the cab? And yes I know Cobras (and vipers) get uber hot.

Sitting on the rear axle would probably feel really weird. I know that when I first got my miata, I felt like I was sitting way out back and it felt odd.

The Cheetah is no joke guys, Its not something you're taking the kids to soccer practice in. that car does exactly what it was designed to do and that is kill Cobras. is it comfy no. cup holders no....uncomfortable, YES
faster than a Cobra dam right. Last edited by Rednine11; 10-03-2015 at 06:24 PM.. |
