Those were some short races.....what are you furd guys doin these days? Seems like picking your best roll speed.....gearing perfectly for a 3 second run taking the hit and thinkin you're the ****.

Then shutting down before you get freight trained.

Oh I know he would have freight trained me, I never said that, but if you watch and pay attention you'll see.... The first one there was no point in continuing, and the 2nd race he hits the brakes before I hit rev limiter

Swapping out the 4.6 was a wonderful choice.

Nice runs and car sounds great.
Coyote motor in that lighter Cobra body must run pretty damn hard.

Agreed. No disputing that.
4.6s are paper weights. That being said, the 4.6 4V was the predecessor to the 5.0 Coyote motor. It had to start somewhere and the 4.6 4V was just that. It was the platform where all the mistakes were made so better motors can follow.
