race would be neck and neck. The aa4 has 100 less hp and will be running low 13s and on street tires the cobra will be running high 12's depending how bad he hooks

I agree. A Camaro with 4.10's near stock will probably run 8 flat more or less. The Cobra has 428rwhp on a heavier car with no driver on street Nittos 555's? I say 8.0-8.4+/-. If the Camaro hooks and leaves hard and the Cobra driver is as bad as you say with 428rwhp on street tires, you should get it. Let me now how wrong, or right, I am later.

This is for 1/8mi, should be close because of gears. 1/4mi I would take the Cobra, with 4.10's and less hp the Camaro wouldnt have enough up top.

Good Luck it's going to be a close race. If it was me i would be putting a bottle on the carmaro just in case. If the carmaro driver isn't on his A game the cobra has it.

SWEETNES..... SHAKE AND BAKE KICK HIS *** SEABASS....

OCT 08 ROAD AND TRACK TIMES I @ COBRAS heres why COPY AND PASTE


FORD SHELBY GT500KR - KING OF THE ROAD EDITION RULES OVER ITS LESSER SIBLINGS....


LIST PRICE -$79,995
CURB WEIGHT - 3885
HP BASE - 540 @ 6250
TQ BASE - 510@ 4500
0-60 4.7
1/4 MILE 12.9 @116.00
TOP SPEED 155


Quote word for word in the magazine !!

" Royalty comes at a price and with an MRSP OF $79,995 the crown of this snake cost $37,310 over the price of the base GT500 $ 42,865. Is it worth it ? Ask the Buyers who are often paying more then $100,000 for the lastest and greatest ford ......


Shelby GT500

$43,765
HP Base 500
Trq Base 480
Weight 3950
0-60 mph 4.6
1/4 mile 12.8 @ 113.2

So your spose to pay over $40,000 for a SHELBYGT500 Thats Slower in the 1/4 3 mile hour trap speed higher and slower 0-60

What a freaking JOKE..... hell I wont even post the 2008 z06 next to shelbygt500kr Same price.... BUT A WHOLE HELL OF ALOT DIFFERNT IN PERFOMANCE , SPEED, HANDLEING Most of all its not a FORD

Yeah a pretty much stock Camaro does not stand a chance even with a good launch. Thats a 100 more HP for the Cobra.

I want to see the outcome to this. Ill try and record it.
i know 500 miles to break in an engine is recommended. but for a clutch it just has to even out the material on the disc... someone chime in here

To be on the safe side at least 100 miles but most companies recommend 500 thats all.

I am fairly certain the Cobra is going to take this win, the driver will definitely spin off the line but once he gains traction the Z is going to be seeing some tail lights.

I am not in any way, shape or form underestimating the LS1 motor, but I think some of you guys are underestimating the Cobra motor.....by a lot. The thing is a freaking beast that responds to any mods very well, it's not just a regular GT. It's a Mustang born directly from Satan's *******.
