The owner of this cobra told me its not even pullied....but his numbers show its a lower only car with no cooling mods......i wish i still had my 03 to try lilmiller. A properly setup pullied cobra with all the cooling mods and a driver is a strong car.

So you are one of those guys that are always saying "if that was me" or "back in the day" that would end a different way

Not at all coach....not anywhere in that post did i say "i would win". I said " i would have liked to try him in my 03". Obviously my 03 made a lot more power than this one and had all the cooling mods and did go 1 sec faster than his at the track.....not that track matters but i know it does to you.

Either way vette should've pulled it harder. The cobra should need to make 50-80 more just to stay beside it.

Have to have more then 25whp more then a vette... terminators are rolling tanks around 3900lbs.. The one I raced said his car weighed in about 3900 that is,, Lilmiller's car is 3150 if I'm not mistaken.

They are 36xx without a driver stock. The whole how much power does a cobra need argument is lame to many variables such as weight, set-up, and driver come into play to have a set power needed.

They are heavy....but can be very fast setup right and suprise a lot of people. Especially the people doing paper racing.
