Cobra's are overrated
Cobra's are overrated
All that power is good and all, but what good is it if they can't hook up?
I raced one at the track on Sunday and beat one so bad off the line that he couldn't catch me. I ran a 13.1 to his 13.4. What good are they if you can't drive them? AWD > RWD!
I just got this car 3 weeks ago and I'm already in love with it!
Glad I didn't buy a FORD!

Mame, you and I won't see eye to eye on this one dude. I've owned a Cobra and my 05' can't touch the power that car had. With a pulley, catback, filter, tune it ran a 11.53@120 mph all for a whopping $1100.
Great job on beating the driver not the car since many stock cars are in the high 12's@108-111mph with good drivers, but again great job. I post many links to stock block, stock trans, cobras running low 10's with 5K-8K worth of mods.
The most popular Cobra owner that you might identify with is Allen aka Broke7 who raced Chris's EVO aka "The AMS EVO" that is on srvidz.com and streetfire. His car has run a 10.5@133mph with 5K in it. In fact if you watch the video of him and Chris...Chris wins, but doesn't start to pull until 110mph and his car is bad as hell!! Allen has now run a 10.89@127mph with just the blower on pump gas and will be in the 135mph+ range with his 75 shot of nitrous again all for 5K!
Don't start slamming the cobra there are many more coming with TT kits and most will be in the 700rwhp on pump and 900rwhp++ on race gas.
With all that being said what do I drive? A 05' Black Tarmac EVO, so you know which car I like better, but Cobras are freaking bad!! Good run and it's always fun to beat a V-8!
