i call bs. i have seen plenty of 400+whp camaros lose to s/c cobras. especially a 620whp cobra losing to a 350whp t/a... thats like a stock t/a losing to a 90 hp civic. BS

t/a couldve got the jump on cobras, but up top cobra would reel him in easy

Hey Phantom maybe Nova's car does have nitrous, but this video is not Nova's car. He says it is his buddy's car and I think that is drtybrd. It could still have nitrous but I think you have your cars mixed up.

Well the owner of the yellow cobra is not a good driver.

The black Cobra was spinning, it was around 40 degrees out that night, and I don't think he is on a Drag Radial.

I know the T/A is just a bolt-on Drag radial car with a good driver.

The vid is legit, I used to yank 450-500 rwhp cobras all the time in my SS when it was just a bolt on car.

Something still doesn't seem right. A 350RWHP T/A should not pull on 500+RWHP Cobras like that. Unless the Mustang drivers both ABSOLUTEL, HORRIBLY, cannot drive for their lives, or the T/A has some stuff we don't know about, or the Cobras were de-tuned and not putting down that power.

Also 398RWTQ seems VERY high. My bolt-on T/A dyno'd 360RWHP with 365 ft-lbs. Mods are in my sig, a headers/lid T/A will not put down 398RWTQ, sorry.
