Copperhead,

welcome to the forums

WOW that is a SWEET ride, I love the redfire Cobra's and the R setup looks nice with that color.

Is that on the Dragon?

Thanks Firme, and yes it is the Dragon. I'm luck enough to live a half hour from it, so I get up there pretty often. I had some better pics I had posted up on SVTPerformance.com a while back, but they disappeared.

Here's one of my previous car. It is an 03, but I burnt the motor and traded for an 04. Same color and everything. Same wing and front fascia and splitter. The only difference is that the new one (in my sig pic), is an 04 with chrome wheels. But you get the idea.

I like both the front fascia and the wing. I wonder if the wing would look good on a vert...

I believe this is a common issue with just about any vehicle. It is more prevalent with the IRS than the SLA but it can happen with both axle arrangements. I have found it more an issue depending on road surface conditions and type of tire used. At different locations I can get a smooth tire spin without hop and some areas just teeth chattering responce. I have noticed when the road is wet it hops more so than dry. There are some mods that can be done to reduce the bounce but as to eliminate it totally I doubt it. Bushings, spring rates, and dampers may be changed to reduce the occurance of wheel hop. Other issues such as rear alighnment also play a role in how the tires hook up. I would have the alignment checked out if you have excessive wheel hop. For some reason or another, my 04 does not hop as much as my retired 01 did. I have experienced it from time to time but not as often as I did with the other car.

Looking good Dave ...Do you have any close-ups of the Cobra R hood, I'm planning on getting one for mine and just want to see what it would look like on the 03/04's.

Thanks!
