2001 Camaro Z28 VS 2001 Mustang Cobra Well I talked about this run a while back... but was FINALLY able to get the video on Youtube. Did a whole bunch of runs but only put these together. Was pretty close until I got into top of 2 going into 3 gear then I just started to walk away...... Now the Mustang has 4.10 gears so were be seeing a Rematch soon. (Hopefully) 
Camaro mods are Borla exhaust, SLP lid, Nitto 555R Drag Radial tires. Camaro put down 323/337 on a Dynojet.
Mustang mods are Flowmaster exhaust, K&N intake, Accufab throttle body, independent rear suspension, MM Subframe connectors, SCT tune, Hurst shifter. Mustang put down 290/301 on a Mustang dyno

Well we are talking a car with 323rwhp and 337rwtq with a nice powerband and better gearing against a car with probably 287rwhp and 294rwtq with a much much much worse gearing. Looked pretty accurate to me. I'd say the Cobra owner didn't do anything wrong except bring a knife to a gun fight.

Damn that was a murder. Someone call 911. He damn sure did bring a knife to a gunfight. Hopefully he is better prepared next time so it will be a good run. Even with the gears I don't think he'll have enough though. Maybe from a dig to the 1/8th.

I wish we had done some digs... would of been really interesting. but were see how he is from digs with his gears now.

I don't know....I'd have expected him to stay closer. I'd assume he's short shifting in third. With the NA Cobra's power band, shifting higher is better. They ahve a nice upper RPM HP curve and don't really taper off at redline.
Not to say I'd expect him to win, just not as much of a gap.
Nice kills man.

Staging Lane
assuming equal drivers figure there will be at least 4-5 cars between them at the finish. Though I've seen quite a few that couldn't break out of the 14's and seemed to be launched properly...
