NOT trying to start a flame just sharing my experiences. On the road from a roll I have had my *** handed to me several times by 99+ cobras, but the track is a different story. I can usually pull a half a car before they hook. I try to always race cobras at the track. Thats how I test and tune. That is the next goal, be as fast as a stock cobra. Once that is achieved I will go for a modded cobra and so on.
There a 3 or 4 99+ cobras that race at my track and they are not stock they all run 12s. I will have to spray to be able to compete with those.

I usually take the 4.6 GT's off the line and they start pulling on me towards the end.

My brothers friend has a 96' mistic cobra we all thought it would be fast...I rode in it and it felt faster than my car, but when we raced at the track I smoked him...I think he must not be able to drive all that well cause I think a 300HP car should be faster than a 14.6

When the 04' stangs come out I will get one, and then we will see if I develope an "EGO"
