Street Racing & Kill Stories - LT1 vs Cobra

it was an 01, sry to get your hopes up to those who thought it was gonna be a termi. i was hanging out with my honda buddy when he got a call about a guy wanting to race him. well we show up and they guy already chickened out by the time we got there. while we wer waiting around, this 01 cobra, newer riced out accord, and a 350z pull up. no one knew who they wer but the cobra revved at me when he went by. we drove over to ask if he wanted to run. he said no because he just bought the car. but he still asked me to pop the hood. idk why, he didnt exactly look like he knew what he was looking at. he popped his hood and immediately pointed to the SVT badge on the pass. valve cover and said "5.4 baby" i just said "uh, ok lets run." i beat him by so many car lengths i couldnt count them all. normally i wouldnt be that proud of beating an 01 cobra but i just love beating cars people just bought. especially when they think their car is the shit. i told they guy it might be a better idea to sell the car and buy an LS1 to which he promptly said "LS1s suck." i told him he just got beat by a lesser motor and dared him to find a 6 speed LS1 that will actually lose to his car. they looked like they wer in high school so im guessing he didnt exactly pay for it himself.

Those are always the best kills:D, I had a guy tell me my car sucked after i repeatedly beat him from a dig and multiple rolls.
I like how he pointed out that it was a 5.4:eyes:

Nice kill. Got any track numbers from your LT1? That's quite a cam you've got in it; must sound healthy.

no track times yet. its untunned and keeps breaking 10 bolts. it sounds great at idle but anything above it sound completely stock.

I know anything can happen on the street. But how is it that a stock LT1 with 275-285 horsepower {depending what year} beat a stock 01 Cobra with 320 horsepower. LT1's weigh basically the same as those year Mustangs. Yes, I know there's the driver mod. But I'm talking about car against car.

Dig up some dyno numbers on stock 6-speed LT1s and '99/01 Cobras. You'll find comparable horsepower, but with the LT1 making more torque. Such Mustangs typically dyno about the same power and torque. For what it's worth, F-bodies usually make every bit the power the Corvettes do, but play victim to GM's ratings game. They're 300 horsepower cars.

I dug up some dyno's, I couldn't find but one on the LT1. It was 253.xx hp./ 281.xx tq. For the 01' Cobra, I found 276.xx hp., 270.xx/ 290.xx tq., and 266.xx hp. Also, the Cobra that had 270.xx hp./ 290 tq. ran a 13.5 @ 105 in the quarter. The best I've ever heard of a LT1 is 13.9x. I had a 97' Z28, the best I had was 14.1. That was with a CAI. A LT1 doesn't look like it stacks up to a01' Cobra to me. And no, I'm not a Ford fanboy. I have a 2002 Camaro SS.

A stock '01 Cobra "should" beat an LT1, but stuff does happen. Personally I think anyone that drives an N/A 4v Cobra that doesn't have ATLEAST 4.10s is asking to lose. Those cars need a good gear.

So I guess by your reasoning the lt1 cars should beat 03-04 Mach 1's also?????
I didn't know lt1 f-bodys where as fast as ls1 f-bodys

Pit the two best quarter mile times you can find from each car against each other and see if you still feel the same way. Cobra - mid 13's LS1 - high 12's

Cobra - mid 13's LS1 - high 12's "OK", I accept that given equal drivers the LS1 is a faster car, no arguement needed. A (stock) LT1 with equal drivers is a different situation entirely.
ElkySS
02-22-2009, 10:50 AM
well i already knew i was gonna win i was just messin around with the kid. but for him to turn around and tell me LS1s suck after he just got beat by an LT1 before i even told him it had a cam is just plain ridiculous. ill even add to it by saying he had a total of 4 people in the car. we met him in a parking lot where he had the option to off load them for a while because we wer commin back there. i told him it probably wasnt a good idea to have that many people in the car, but he just told me "im not worried about it" so its his own stupidity, not by chance that he had a full car the story really shouldnt be about the race and more about how stupid these high school kids are.
and iv never had any trouble with Mach 1s before my cam

ill have to agree...the mach 1 that use to come out with us before it got totaled had just a bola slip on and it put it to all the bolt on LT1's that came out and ran it

huh?? on average an ls1 car is a mid-low 13 second car. have then dipped into the 12's stock sure but few and far far between. 01 cobra vs ls1 f-body is a drivers race. however i would give the ls1 the upper hand all day.

he did say the BEST times. we all know that LS1 f-bodies have dipped into the 12s. not sure if anyone has in a NA cobra. it wouldnt be surprising if someone has.
ford guys- the the Mach 1 and NA cobras use the same engine?

no they dont share the same engine. similar but different. the mach 1 has a better motor than the 99-01 cobras.

A 6spd car, sure. But don't leave out all the 2.73-geared A4s and the high-optioned 3.23-geared cars. They're gonna run mid 13s all day long. Like I've been saying for years, there are too many variations of F-bodies to group them all together. And for the record, the only Mach 1s that a stock or mild bolt-on LT1 should be coming close to beating is an automatic Mach 1. They're only a touch quicker than a 5spd 99-04 GT.

They may look similar on the outside, but on the inside the Mach 1 motor has tweaks the n/a Cobra's WISH they had. They have much better heads, which they share with the 03/04 Cobra, and the intake cams are from the 5.4L Lincoln Navigator motor, which gives the Mach 1 considerably more low end torque than the previous generation n/a Cobra.

u can call me a lier all you want but the only mustang iv ever lost to of that body style was a termi. but for the record, apparently i have a good running LT1. maybe they couldnt drive, idk
mrbigjeep
02-22-2009, 03:02 PM
yeah and the "best" times for a 99/01 cobra are better than mid 13's...several people have ran low 13's....the 99/01 cobras can run mid 13's easy. which is what a lot of ls1's run...
and my buddies 99cobra yanked my other buddies 6spd lt1 by 2+ cars.....want a video???? lt1's are not averaging mid 13's so a stock lt1 would've gotten beat...

A 6spd car, sure. But don't leave out all the 2.73-geared A4s and the high-optioned 3.23-geared cars. They're gonna run mid 13s all day long.
Don't be stupid. You know I wasn't talking about comparing a top of the line '01 cobra against a bottom of the line '01 LS1 car.
Take the best Fbody from 2001 and pit it against the best Cobra from 2001. Which has obviously put out better times, consistently. Its not an argument, its a fact. Please don't be ingorant.
99-01 Cobra's on average put down 265-280rwhp in stock form. Around 30rwhp less than a RamAir or SuperSport.
Irunelevens
02-22-2009, 04:02 PM
And it's still a driver's race with the edge going to the F-body. Cobras are only a hair slower than Mach 1s. Given equal drivers the F-body should win, but if the F-body driver isn't on his game and the Cobra driver is, it can turn the tables quickly.
MrDavid
02-22-2009, 04:13 PM
Once again, I am not talking about drivers, I'm talking about cars. A stock 2001 RamAir or SS will win at the track every time, and it will pull higher trap speed so it should walk on the street also against a stock 2001 Cobra.

I think that was the whole point of TRMach1's post, even if there are bolt-on LT1s in the 12s. His car was STOCK and ran a 13.1. Bullet's car was bolt-ons and 3.73s and ran a 13.3. PNY's car was bolt-ons and a small cam and ran a 13.0. Mach 1's are clearly the faster cars stock. So all the people with stock or near stock LT1s that say they beat Mach 1s all the time have their heads up their asses, or are running A4 Machs.

ohh i totally agree stock for stock the Mach 1 should completely destroy the LT1, but with bolt-on's they are a good race for near stock Mach 1.
and for the record, im almost positive if my tranny wasn't slipping and i could hook worth beans, i'd be in the high 12's easy, Bolt on A4.

again i'll admitt my ignorance in a way, but then again we could say then that LS1's are known for high 12's and i hate saying that. I was going along the lines of i dont think the average driver in a Mach 1 would pull a 13.1 very regularily.

Cause you're showing ignorance. Go all ford 'nuthuggin' 'an shit'?.....:rotflmao: You're a lame ass for that comment alone.
Of course you're not worried, you're full bolt on and cammed. Of course, if you 'weren't worried' try being a man and go from a dig and none of this wussy "MY 10 bolt's going to break" after talking shit. YOu wanna be humble that's cool, but come on....seriously you're talking crap with a cammed, bolt on LT1 against a stock mach and won't go from a dig against any car?...:bang:
ANd Great job bragging on killing a new owner there Cool Guy. I hate arrogance no matter what they're driving but your attitude doesnt' seem to be all the better.
ohh i totally agree stock for stock the Mach 1 should completely destroy the LT1, but with bolt-on's they are a good race for near stock Mach 1.
and for the record, im almost positive if my tranny wasn't slipping and i could hook worth beans, i'd be in the high 12's easy, Bolt on A4.bolt on.....dude, you have a cam....even if a baby cam...still power there. Actually, I would love to race you in my "OLD" dsg mach (I put that old in there just 4 you). LOL:chug:

im not talking shit about anything. ur the one gettin all defensive. i never said all mach1s are slow, or anything of the nature. they can be a decent race at times.

again i'll admitt my ignorance in a way, but then again we could say then that LS1's are known for high 12's and i hate saying that. I was going along the lines of i dont think the average driver in a Mach 1 would pull a 13.1 very regularily.

Regards to my comments to you, your context seemed that machs are no problem simply because you might have beaten one or two...you have given no details to any of those cars or races aside from 'I've had no problems before my cam'. Even if you had, one or two is certainly not the norm.
And I agree the cobra guy was arrogant and ignorant. I mean WHTF rev's, talks crap and doesn't want to race?..A TOOL!. And you said why...he came from a civic background.

It's ok. I'm not into guys following me around.
My only point is......I agree with whomever stated (I think it was Iruns) you must have raced an A4 mach or a very shitty driver. Machs are LS territory, which are still enough to beat a bolt on only LT1.
Mach's are slow. :engarde:

I think that was the whole point of TRMach1's post, even if there are bolt-on LT1s in the 12s. His car was STOCK and ran a 13.1. Bullet's car was bolt-ons and 3.73s and ran a 13.3. PNY's car was bolt-ons and a small cam and ran a 13.0. Mach 1's are clearly the faster cars stock. So all the people with stock or near stock LT1s that say they beat Mach 1s all the time have their heads up their asses, or are running A4 Machs.
Thats really funny I have an A4 Mach and haven't had an LT1 anything even come close to me. Hate when you guys stereotype. Psst my A4 Mach went 13.4 bone stock.

The same day my car ran a 13.3, it also beat an 04 Cobra. But that was PURELY DRIVER. The guy couldnt drive the Cobra, if he had been able to i must admit the camaro would have seen taillights. I think the Mach 1's are fast cars and stock for stock would beat a LT1 Car, and be a good run with a LS1, but agian I think it would be a drivers race, not necessarily which car is the fastest. Also the guy that used to own my car had a 100 shot on it and ran a LS1 Trans Am with a STS Turbo kit, TA jumped out half car and thats where it stayed. A lot has to do with the driver in my opinion.

So one or 2 of you can drive. It's just like ANY other car. Maybe a few can pull that time, but 99% of the owners cant.

Nobody cares what YOU have seen. To get a true estimate of how you might of might not stack up to a certain car, you have to go off what the car can do. Not what Joe-Blow at your local track runs. Because if you've never seen a stock Mach 1 run a 13.X, nobody where you live can drive. Or your DA is HORRIBLE.

I'd love to run into a good driver in one, but I guess that none of the numerous ones I have run into had good drivers. And no, if I lose a race, I shake the other driver's hand and hit up the classified section to make my car faster. Somebody is always faster than you are.
How could you even make that assessment from reading 3 posts where I didnt believe that a stock mach1 on stock street tires would do a 13.1 with an average driver? Now I'm a sore loser? Thats quite a leap, don't you think?

The problem is you are not a Ford guy, and your knowledge of stock Mach 1's is limited. I'll gladly post my slips since I got the car. You need to drive a 150 miles south to PBIR and I'll show you a few and I doubt the DA is any different down here. I bought my Mach used in Texas with 62000 miles. A week later I ran it bone stock in 90 degree weather and had a best of 13.7. Bought it back on a 60 degree night and got a 13.4 something. Oh I did forget it had a drop in K&N. I have seen several M5 Machs run 13's bone stock.

Cliff Notes of story: It was midnight, I was in the far Left lane on interstate and a 18 wheeler started coming over on me, I floored it to get out of his way since I was towards the front half of his truck, instant loss of traction, spun around and my front end hits the concrete barrier. Air bags popped so I couldn't start the car to move it, then 2 min later a dude in a crown vic paying no attention never gets over into another lane and never hits the brakes.

It's all good, I'm going to school to be an airplane mechanic and a missionary pilot all in one, so I'd say it'll work out eventually...

i was thinking about being an airplane mechanic...but didn't want to go to school an hour away for another 13 months, so I just did avionics, and am about to move to Phoenix. Good luck with being a mechanic. Don't get caught standing on the flaps when the avionics guys start testing them. lol.
