2003cobro gets drug hard by Cam only LS1
#21
This, Cobras are badass cars, they can for sure get down but for some reason it seems like on the street they lack. I've taken 3 of them on the street. Was a long time ago, last one I took was Beater Bombs old orange cobra he sold before he was known for his famous "Beater Bomb" car. Granted he was not driving and it was the guy who just purchased the car but it was the same story with the other 2 cobras. Not dissing them, they are badass cars and I myself wouldn't mind owning one. They just seem to require a specific set up for the street or they are pretty lackluster.

It's mainly because they only came out in stick form and most people can't drive a stick car for ****, especially on the street. I've seen a few guys with th400 swapped cobras they're damn nasty

Quit trying to deny that that's your car. We all know that is. I found another video of you ricer jumping, then getting reeled the **** in like a trout, squirming for its life. By a basic bolt on ls1.

Wow someone with a normal sense of how fast these cars are. I have trapped as high as 122 when i was pulley bolt on. If Camaro was an auto and it was a dig race i would get it. But unless Cobra is hurt no way its getting walked like that by a basic cam car. Sorry, its just reality.
Yes.....it could and should get walked by cam car even if the cobro was a 122 car. That's just the reality.
A 122 cooled/iced down cobro at the drag strip ain't the same car on the street. Again....just the reality

At 12lb it's no where near 122. 116 maybe. I would venture to say most eaton cars don't get near 122. 120ish

I haven't used a bag of ice at the track yet, but I do see a bunch of CTSV and ZL1 guys icing down and filling tanks.
PS. I ain't against ice at all, I might even get an ice tank one day.

Lmao, you don't know jack ****. Any cammed LS1 that doesn't trap at least 115-116 is tuned like **** or driven like ****, or in high DA. I remember when you raced Nick's car, you thought they all were that slow.

There's absolutely no doubting a cam only 4th gen can smash 122mph quarter, but in reality, most don't get anywhere near that.
Therefore, most (not all) cam only 4 gens will get walked by a 122mph cobra. That's reality man.

My bonestock lscar went 108 stock. Ff&m tested camaros that actually trapped more.
The difference between me and you is i realize that a 120mph cobro is doin pretty good and i know that a 110 mph cammed fcar is not right at all.
Flip it and the same thing can be said about 4th gens. Most cam only cars don't get near 122mph. That's the reality of it.

Again...a 122 mph cobra at the track is likely not a 122mph car on the street. A cammed 122mph ls1 at the track will likely back that up on the street.
