I can believe you pulled a stock/lightly modded Mach 1, but I doubt you pulled on an 03 Cobra, especially top end if your only traping 110 (website??? wtf does that mean? Like a 1/4 calculator or something? )

I'm sure he did. He said an old man was driving. 110mph is stock Cobra range with a very good driver, not some guy out for a leisurely drive.

I figured an A4 LS1 thats not putting to much power to the ground would not pull on the top end against a Cobra. As long as the old man had his foot on the gas and not the brake anyways.

With 332/345 rwhp/rwtq and an A4... I would like to know how he is trapping at 110.

I make 345/360 and I trap at 109. I have a 6-speed.

You need the driver's mod or your track conditons/elevation is hurting you. With my little LT1 back when I was making 368rwhp/336rwtq I was trapping 114's with a 3.73 gear.

From what I've seen 6speeds tend to dyno alot higher. So with an a4 and only 10 less rwhp 1mph difference isn't much. BTW good kill on the cobra but never underestimate the stangs.

I would like a re-match sometime. I got excited when I saw your car and then I got worried when I saw your DR's. I was on my street tires...Nitto 555s.

I gave it a little too much from the line and spun badly. After I hooked I felt as I was actually pulling ( slowly)??? Your SS/Z28 is fast though. Win some lose some.

I figured with your power numbers you would run away from me. You had 2 cars on me with my burnout showcase for the stop n go customers...ha ha

I would like another shot. No flames from me and maybe next time I will have my drag radials on and atleast make it a closer race.

Best qtr. mile times are 12.80 @ 108.5 with DRs with 1.80 60 ft.
dyno before chip was 295 rwhp & 320 rwtq
weight is 3350 w/o me

I don't doubt either kill or your dyno/track numbers.

Just keep in mind that 110mph traps is not fast.

Good kills.

cool, we will have to meet up.

Any local meets going on?

Was that Cobra owner an old guy? Bald kinda big? I think I met him, he was bragging about how he loves his car.

Put them numbers down with an A4 and you will see 114.
A buddy has, on a Mustang Dyno put those numbers down and posted 12.1 at 114.
Should have got an A4 . Just kidding!
