My mistake LethalZ claimed that. You claimed this...
I ran 13.2 the first and only time ever on the track with a Mach 1 on street tires. So how is that a high 13 second car? Sounds to me like its right there with the better LS1 times. LS1 F-bodies at the track average mid 13's.

even thou the cobra's a better platform, it is alot more $. sure after 2k in mods it really shines but then its like what 12grand more than the f-body? 12grand in any car can go a very long way. . . IE you could get a completely new motor and tranny and rear end for near 12 grand. . . and that would put the F-body much over the Cobra. . .
but i hate to add any wood to the fire cause this arguement is played . . .
just like mustangs! hahahahaha

Not saying anything to you but what you said reminded me. At first I really though the Mach I drove was a turd, I even complained about the lack of power. However after the car reached 15,000 miles she woke the F up!

ok thanks for more exact numbers i was really just guessing, but with 7k extra in price you could have a good rear end, and fully built auto, and some left over, now add the 2k in and thats near 3k left over if you do some of the work and that 515hp H/C/I was only 3000. then the 2k at the cobra and near what 550? now that LS1 will tear the cobra a new one at the track, but from a roll it might be more in favor of the cobra, so yes this goes on and on
without spray on the ls1 it is going to be a pretty good race... with spray from a dig it shouldnt be too close.. from a roll the cobra will be right there on its *** with the ls1 spraying.

cobra would actually be more towards 475.. depending on what mods are on each car, and how well the cobra driver can drive.. i would say it would tear it a new one... but it should have the win.. from a roll the cobra has it..

OP, now go drive a stock LS1.
When I had a H/C SS, I was so impressd with a 470rwhp pullied bolt on Cobra (before I actually bought it) that I actually bought it.
I would still have it now over the C6 if I had not sold it for other reasons at the time.

how many 9-10 second street cars do you just see running around, to most people a stock f-body or cobra is plenty fast we here on ls1 tech are speed deamons so stock fbodys and cobras might seem slow to us. Most of us have cars putting out close too or at least 400 rwhp so the stock stuff seems like nothing.
