..the Cobra coughs up third gear on the 2-3 shift. I'm out running errands in it all day, on the way home..literally a mile from the house.. BOOOM! I'm like, WTF? Oh ya...clack-clack-clack. God forbid you come to a complete stop, it locks up in every gear. The best part? The car is NA right now..the S trim isn't even hooked up. What a fukkin' New Years present. Guess it gets a stock T-5 till I decide what I wanna do.

Oh man, John, that sucks! Hey, at least it was near the house and not down in Pleasanton. It was good to meet you today though. And if it's any consolation my son really liked your car. We got home and he had to tell his mom that he saw a "coo wace cah" (2 1/2 year old translation to cool race car).
Well, I hope that the axles work out for you. Thanks again.
Sean.

Sean- great to meet you too. You son is pretty cool, especially since he likes Cobras. Ya, I was really greatful I was sooooo close to the house. Nothing like 4 grand drops to get the car rolling..it is lockin' up if it comes to a complete stop. Something DEFINITELY went waaaay wrong in there. Oh well..no more cryin' about it, I did enough of that over dinner.
Ya, hopefully it's back in action soon. I hope...
