does this sound about rite???cammed t/a 04 cobra played around with my bro in laws cobra a few weeks ago...its an 04 has some exhaust work a heat exchanger cai and some free mods....
my car then 4000 stall bolt ons gears and a smallish cam.....
he was by himself me and another buddy in my car both of us weigh over 250lbs....and the cap was on my cutout...my catback is really restrictive 2.5"pipe flowmaster 40 series.....
from a slow roll my car pulled his a little couple cars or so up untill about 100
but then his slowly started pullin up but not all the way we shut down about 110 and he was within a car of mine....i thought it was about right i guess if i hadnt had the extra weight and cutout closed i think he wouldnt have pulled back up....
funny thing is i tore down my car to do heads and a custom cam and he gets a pulley and a dyno tune.....oh well i wish i wouldve had my bottle on haha

Yep, youre either going mid 11's or to the shop for a new halfshaft.

As bad as this is going to sound. I'm actually enjoying the lack of low end torque produced by the VQ. It's making it easier to launch out of the hole.
I can only IMAGINE how hard it is to launch a Terminator

I have a buddy with a 03 pullied cobra that runs dead even from a 50 roll with my 02 z-28 with a ss4000, TR Trak cam, LT, 3.73 . From a dig I own him. Both cars are on drag radials and he has a solid axle swap. I always thought I would win from a dig but was surprised how well I did from a roll.

Hey bro I gotta argue with you while the Cobra diff is a good piece it is in no way as strong as an Eaton. A cobra diff is simply a 31 spline from and F150. They stand up pretty well to abuse, Go over to the Mach registry and search. The real heavy hitters 600 RWHP and up all have Eatons, Auburns or spools. Ah what do you care your half shafts will go way before the diff.
