there are a couple of reasons they kept with liveaxle, and this is from a videoconference with some of the r/d team for the car so its accurate.
1) power holding. the live axle holds power from mods and stuff better than independent rear. look at what all the 03/04 cobra guys are doing, switching out to live axle.
2) cobra - the cobra gets the independent rear end
3) cost - they need to keep cost down. and the independent rear isn't the cheapest thing in the world
