Cool and clear Sun. 11 AM here in Houston , so I figure it's time for a little street cruise. Would anyone believe I got 2 runs in about an hour? First was a Fox body hatch GT. I didn't know if he would go so I just eased off at the light staying even with him. The Flows make a little rumble so they know what I want. He hit it getting a slight jump but then The '66 pulled ahead easily. After getting a car or 2 I just let off at 60-70. He didn't want anymore and just turned off.

Soon after, I came upon a white convertible 96-98 Cobra. Top was down with a middle aged man alone in the car. Luckily, we hit a light on a residential blvd. Again I eased off staying even and he got a slight jump, but I had the C-4 in low just in case. I nailed it after he did and put 1-1/2-2 cars on him running up to 60-70 mph. At the next light he was in the left turn lane. I asked if it was a 5.0 and he said "4.6". It had the horizontal grill tail lights. I was thinking it was a '95, but the 4.6 told me '96-98.

Obviously from other posts, these Cobras run any where from low 14's to 12's. Anyone know what a bone stock vert 96-98 runs?
