That Cobra really handed that C5 its ***! I thought it would be A LOT closer than that given the trap speeds.

after some gears and a clutch.... a 100shot.... I didn't think it was too bad... I think I want to have my car dynoed here, because the guy I bought it from never provided me any dyno sheets so for all I know it may make a lot less than what he told me, but hey.. I'm happy with what I run at the track.. now just need some DR's and run a little lower 11...

I would say your car does make 400rwhp from the people I have raced.... but yes you need gears!!!! And from your mods I know it makes 400rwhp.

Thats like a 5-6mph trap speed difference there, that Cobra moves out. Im pretty impressed with the way those cars overcome their high weight with torque, you wont find many other cars that weigh that much and can run that hard.
