Yup, The number one thing on a Cobra owners list should be gears.
There are a few members of this board who have simple bolt-ons and are running mid-low 12's in their "never broke the seal" Cobras.
And like mentioned earlier. The GMHTP car that went 12's @ 110. RIGHT!!!!!! Anyone that has been to the track knows this not to be anywhere near the truth Try mid 13's @ 104-105. PERIOD. I don't want to sound too biased, so i'll say the same about a 2001 Cobra running mid 13's @ 104. Remember a MAGAZINE also got that time. I'll believe it when I see it.
Durability? Try adding slicks to that lil' 10 bolt on a 6-speed F-car and see how long it lasts. We all know the IRS in the Cobra sucks at the strip. That is about it.
Bottom line is they are both great cars and have their pluses/minuses. I would love to own either of them.
