We pulled onto a frontage road that has a nice straight and went from a dig- 1st race I missed 3rd and got my *** kicked, 2nd race stayed door to door w/ him and started to pull ahead towards the end (100 mph maybe?) I wonder how it feels to not beat up on a lightly modded Z when you have dumped a boatload of cash into your shitbox mustang... Come on stang guys, bring on the "he couldn't drive"'s and the "this or that must have happened" comments- If I were that guy i would put a brick on the accellerator of that piece of **** and send it into a lake just to see the splash and then I would hang myself from a tree out of embarrassment (with my now shrunken bank account fresh in my mind.)

 

Have you got any idea what my 60' time is (2.232)? my problem is traction, not speed, as you can probably tell by my MPH, right, doc? I think that maybe I just happened to hook the car up.

 

sweet kill, yea show me what he should of put his money to, if i got beat by a ligtly modded car and I had a blower, i would probably blower my head off.

 

BTW- Straight from a Cobra Site:
Performance
(all performance numbers were generated under closed-course conditions on a test track)

0-60 mph - 5.9 seconds
Quarter Mile - 13.99 seconds @ 101.6 mph
Top Speed - 152 Mph
Braking 60-0 mph - 127 ft.
Braking 80-0 mph - 227 ft.
80 ft slalom - 52.1 mph
100 ft. skidpad - 0.89g

 

And what was the magical car that did beat you. Im not saying you are retarded this time, i just want to know the car that hustled you?

 

Thx for the props,DBI.

bullitt if someone shuts down and then u pass him thats not a win by you, just some info for u

 

I don't know what to tell you... BTW i have 16" kumho ecsta supras. He had Nitto 555 drags. What a conundrum.

 

Nice kill! Cobra`s do taste good! Vipers arn`t that bad either!

 

baddog, you trap pretty high for your mods.

 

Nice kill, so much hating in this thread

Nice Kill. My friend has a 98 cobra, I used to think it fast, until i went out and drove a TA WS6
Now I am buying one. Well nice kill. If you get some better tires I bet you will run probably in the mid to low 12's if you can hook up.

 

I got a buddy w/ a 97. I set up a race between him and my buddy that has a 98 SS. they went from prolly a 50 flick. He gave the cobra the move, No one moved an inch until they both hit 3rd, then the SS walked away. But if u pulled away from a boosted Cobra then props to you my friend

 

Must have been the 6psi pulley.

Sounds about right. A bone stock 98 cobra with a 6psi vortech should run around 110-112mph in the 1/4.

$14,000 for the cobra, $3500 for the blower kit.
$17,500 total. Not too bad if you ask me.

I'm not going to come up with the "well he must not be able to drive" excuse. That seems to be yours, considering you "missed 3rd, and got your *** kicked".

 

You sure know a lot about this guys car, considering how far apart you live. :p
Let the guy have his fun, its his post.
We don't need another debate here
I thought Vortech kits for a 98Cobra were over 8lbs (S-Trim)

Hey there, ross- **** sometimes happens, and on our first race it did. At least I was honest about it, right? And that wasn't an excuse, tossoff... It was the truth.

O3 mach- sorry bout all the hating in the post. I won't hate on you, I really dig those red Mach 1's! have fun w/ that car- its the only stang I'd drive.

Thanks everybody else for the props, gang.

 

no prob and i have not gotten a chance to drive a Mach or an 03 cobra. i have driven a z06 and several other f-bods!!

 

good kill man but im sorry this guy couldnt drive..dont mean to sound like a troll or an *** but when i had just a blower and 3.73s and some intake work i pulled between 12.5-12.7s all day
