Im sure there are plenty of kb cobras in your area that would love to make you look like your standing still as they go flying by you..... Maybe someone should post a thread over on svt and find you a real cobra to race.... Also make sure the cobra gets the video so we can see how many buslengths you are in his mirror.... Please dont call out a group of cars that 99 % of would destroy you....... I just wish you were from pittsburgh so i could see you get eatin alive in person....

this is all true but it seemed to change in 92? something about the lt1? then something about ls1? i will say this much its cool the 06 and up mustang gt is finally as fast as an lt1 car stock for stock.

How about those beautiful Irocs. Slow window motors, you had to put the windows up before it rained..or it would get wet FOR SURE. I remember closing those doors....THUD.
Oh wait, all F-bodies do that.

ya know its really not unbelievable that an a4 ls1 with a stall and nitrous would beat a KB cobra in a drag race!!! now maybe a roll race would be diff...but 500hp+6spd+IRS+ the street= usually a win for the ls1...ive raced my share of cobras and from a dig i usually beat them with exhaust/stall/lid/n20/and good tires...good kill man!!
