yes unfortunately that is true. . .
im just sick of reading lists, anyone can post any number of lists, i agree with you guys, he beat some shitty drivers, and cobra's are definitely not dyno queens like supra's.
sorry Mike continue your slaughter

Yes we have, thats all we ever see big numbers and trap speed with no results... thats why they belong on the dyno's with the supra's and not on a track 
. Kenne Bell cobra's 600+rwhp running mid high 11's? 
450rwhp C6 VS 640rwhp KB "terminator"

LOL at your post. That's all I can do. No point in replying.

The majority of those cars you listed have a **** load of weight reduction. Yet, they are still within full weight pullied Cobra territory.
Maybe if you exlpored outside the street kill section and had some genuine knowledge of other cars capabilites, you'd know that.

Its not my fault there over weight pigs...I have some weight reduction tips for you. You can start by removing the 100lbs of dyno sheets piled in the back or how about tossing the supercharger...oh wait, then the car would be in the 14's were it belongs....ok now u can

I've just come to the conclusion....You did not beat a pullied cobra. You beat the shitty driver of said pullied cobra (I think I posted this earlier...if so....let it sink in). You have (had) a fast bolt on ls1. You also run a good time, with a good '60. And you have run not so great cobras. You will not win every race against a pullied cobra. You will NOT. Hell, given good drivers....you could lose to a bolt on cobra. Yes, you did beat two pullied cobras per say....but you beat the drivers, not the cars. Same can be said with Supras.

I think it is funny how all cobra owners only talk about is trap speed, and they never include or talk about ET's ....the fact of the matter is they suck out of the hole with there IRS. I couldnt give a **** about roll races, there for ricers and cobras that cant get out of the hole. To me a cobra is in the same catagory as a supra, 460-600+hp and still run in the 11's! BAHAHAHAHA! No wonder they get beat by f bodys with 100+hp less (in a real race).

Most Cobra's are street cars especially the ones you posted. There are several F-bodies out there that don't get out of the hole worth a **** either. Mine didn't. Trap speed shows power and less on the total setup. And I don't think you have any room to talk to anybody about fast with your 12.4 @ 112 pass. That's a F-en hot rod you got there.
Im not done with u yet, get back here!

Mature...
Anyway, I'm just stating facts man. I'll use myself as an Example, since something similar happened to me.
I raced two different 600cc bikes on two different days. Both times, I held them off within 2-3 bike lengths until about 90, when they would pull on me hard. This was when I was bone stock. No way, from 30ish to 90, should I hang with 600s. But it happened. Why? Squids for riders. You are in the same situation. A cobra will do what your times in your sig are....stock. I believe Even Smith ran something like 12.2 or .1 at 116. Just as he ran a 12.9 stock in a z28. Good drivers make the difference. With your attitude in the matter....you will be humiliated by a cobra one day. And hell...I'll put money that it is a bolt on cobra that pulls you. A good driver in a pullied cobra...low 11s. You will race one, one day. You will see what happens when good drivers are behind that car. Until then, keep thinking your old bolt on z can hang with and beat all pullied cobras.

And you know this how?
Most Cobra's are street cars especially the ones you posted. There are several F-bodies out there that don't get out of the hole worth a **** either. Mine didn't. Trap speed shows power and less on the total setup. And I don't think you have any room to talk to anybody about fast with your 12.4 @ 112 pass. That's a F-en hot rod you got there.
Just so you know Cobra weigh 150lbs more than your precious F-body. Wow what a pig. And get off the supercharger BS. Ford added a supercharger instead of displacement what does it F-en matter? It makes power that's the bottom line. And it makes more easier than with a F-body. And its more driveable. I've had both so excuse me for not buying into your biased BS. I would say your just trying to make yourself feel better about what you have.

Oh wait, you shouldn't be posting in here, you dont' have a 600/500/400rwhp car, nor do you own a cobra. HMMMM.

the 117 was after I put the 224 cam in, went to the track ran a 117 trap, so i knew the car ran 117 when i raced my buddies cobra.
Sorry i don't have a vid for my 117 run, i kinda wasn't impressed by the gain.

Ok guys really, are we argue'n over the classic ford vs gm **** again. All and all its just a piece of metal designed by different people with more metal powering the car. So let's all shake hands, gang up on some imports, and have a group hug!
