I'm really surprised at the outcome of that race. Nice kill

WTF is up with that Cobra? He should be trapping 130mph at 590rwhp.

Same here. You said you were making around 490rwhp or so and you pulled him pretty good up top. Are you sure he is putting down 590rwhp?

Come on unit, you know a stripper weighs considerably less than a regular F-body. Now add in the weight issue along with the fact that he makes MORE power than 490rwhp. As he stated, those numbers were without his FMIC. So for all we know, he could be making 530ish rwhp.

I still don't think he would trap 130mph.

Actually my buddys Pullied Cobra only put down around 368whp with a 1.76 pulley. The reason I figure i'm putting down no more than 500whp is because i'm still on the stock fuel pump I'm not sure what i'm trapping in the 1/4th but to me it seems like turbo cars tend to pull harder on the top end oppose to SC.

My car only weighs 3400 lbs. The Cobra had a passenger in his car that night so i'm sure his car weighed probably 450 lbs more then mine. I wouldn't dought that the Whipple put down 590 at the wheels. A few weeks back I ran a KB Cobra that put down 500whp (15lbs of boost) and beat him by atleast 3-4 cars from 70-130.
