Default cobra track time ?

what do you think a 03 cobra with 600hp will run in the quarter with a descent driver and a good hook. (i know there are ALOT of variables).

I have seen one with 550 rwhp solid rear and lightened up with traction run 10.90s pretty consistant so.

Go to a mustang forum. This is called ls1 tech. We have chevy motors.

Last time I checked there were several forums members even moderators who own modded 03+ cobra's who are very aware what these vehicles are capable.

Oh, neat. Thanks for the comments. I appreciate them since you know me so well. I still maintain what I posted earlier.

edit-

Also, if you have no other reason but to run your mouth then stay out the section. I at least gave the guy a heads up of what these cars can do with less power.

The et/trap a 600rwhp Cobra runs in the 1/4 is COMPLETELY dependant upon the DRIVER.

With 450rwhp, I have ran low 11's at mid 120's (there's a vid. of my 11.6@123 somewhere on this site).

With a good hook, and 600rwhp, along with a good driver (which is the MAIN part), a full weight 03/4 cobra should have no problem running 10.50's or better, at 127+.

I look forward to it. I stay pretty quiet unless provoked or people make dumb comments.

To bad you dont live closer btw. I would have loved to be able to hitch a ride in the snow to work.

Very true. That Predator03 guy for example, I read somewhere on this site that he ran a 12.2 with 700+rwhp in an 03 cobra just to show you how much of a difference a shitty driver makes.

WELL, it is in here because I have been challenged by a "600 hp" cobra, and I was wanting to compare my car vs his, and how would else would you compare, AHHH i got it "the cobra should run 357 telephone poles in 11 secs" I mean jeez, also as i said before i know there are many factors but a descent driver.

mods move the thread if needed

There sure seem to be a lot of moderators here.

5.8litre is right. 600rwhp can be 10.40's to 12.0's depending on other mods (such as IRS vs. solid axle) and a driver.
