Question This Web-site

Hello guy's, I just registered on this site, mostly because "The Corral" is down, how do you guy's think this compares to "The Corral?"

Also what does a bone stock 4.6 Cobra run?

O.K. I'm biased, but I think Mustang Works Online compares very favorably with the Corral website. Check us out and you'll probably agree.

A stock 4.6 Mustang, on average, runs mid 14's.

Transmission, weight of the vehicle, state of tune and drive skill all play a part in the actual et on any specific Mustang. Some run high 13's.

I think this site is cool, the people are less critical, more friendly, and you offer more. i think I'm here to stay, and, since the Corral is crashed, I may not have a place to go back to.

I wanted to know what a bone stock 2001 Cobra runs in the 1320. My buddy just got one, says 13.25, I say 13.70's.

Thanks again.

A stock gt manual hardtop runs a low 14, and a select few well driven run high 13s. I'm not so sure about the cobra, I doubt that its as good as 13.2, but its better than 13.7. I would guess a mid/low 13. Remember that the 99+ are MUCH better than the 96-98s.

JL1314 - That's what I was going to say

What makes it even worse is I have another 1000 posts on this board with the old username I started with.

The Corral is a good site, but to me it's just too big. If you make a post it'll be buried under 500 other posts in a matter of minutes sometimes. This site is perfect.

Thank-you for the welcome, I go by gtsr515 also on the Corral, or should I say Crashal? LOL. Jupiter, Florida where is that? I live in Sebring, I listen to the Champ Cars test all winter from my house, omly a mile or so from the track. Will have to edit my profile.

If i could put a bone stock 93 in the 13,s, I would imagine a 99 would be a piece-o-cake. Maybe I'm wrong? My 93 LX 5sp. runs 12.92@104 with bone stock heads,cam and intake, I feel thats pretty good, what do you think?

My friend in Illinois, (look for Tim Lester on www.stangcrazy.com) has a 99 Cobra, without jumping to the site, I think it ran 13.71.

It's now at 13.15, with a few more mod's, he's going for mid - low 12's. Bob Cosby is his idol.

4.56's are next.

Thanks again.

Jupiter is northern Palm Beach County, just north of palm beach gardens... it's on the beach.

That sounds like an awesome cobra... Bob Cosby's got a good one there too.. very nice!
