It said Cobra on it, and it looked identical to the one in your sig unit213. Only difference, it was silver, and the Cobra was painted black, not silver/chrome like yours.

It had a supercharger, I'm no dummy, I know what one sounds like.

So it was either an older Cobra with a supercharger, or a mostly stock 03/04.

I used to be in Cali now I'm in VA. Even with your 408 I'd still go though I already know the what the outcome would be. For me that is.

Sailor, no sweat. Just thought it might have been good. I haven't gotten the chance to run an LS1 yet. My buddy sold his '01 Z right after I got the Mach. Scared him I guess.
Machs are rated at 305 or 310 hp(depending on where you look) and 320 tq.

After 75 he did. I think he had trouble shifting but if you can't drive it don't try to pick on slower cars. He was the one who revved it up and like it said it depends on the car and driver. Some people think that they are driving a fast car(which usually are) but thier lack of skills and ***** makes the car look slow. I don't even bother with cars that appear to be stock in the T/A unless they just bug the **** out of me. Even then I just down shift, pass, and then wait to see if they can match it. So far all I have got is thumbs up and no races, so my car could be slow.
