LS1 Vs. '94 Cobra

EZRIDN · 03-29-2003, 01:36 PM

Met up with a guy i know who recently purchased a '94 Cobra with gears, exhaust, cold air, shifter, Steeda G-Trac suspension. I was at the track last night just watchin....he ran 14.0 @ 100. First time with the car at the track.

The computer in that car is holding it back so much, really kills the timing between shifts! We did a few rolls though with surprising results. He went from 60ish to 90..1st run he jumped, pulled a good 1.5 cars on me, and i was at his bumper at 90 where we shut down. Next run, same mph...i pulled maybe a car or so on a more even start. Then we hit a 30 to 80 run with a good even start. The Cobra hung right there! I couldn't believe it. He was only at my rear tire when we let off. I think at the track that computer is really killing the E.T. Seems like it has more than 100 mph in it when i drove it and when he hung next to my 107 mph LS1. When he had a '01 GT that trapped 101...i would put a good 2.5-3 cars on him from a 30-80 roll.

He let me drive the car....Awesome. That suspension is so much fun. I am SERIOUSLY on the hunt for a '94-95 Cobra now. Nice car, excellent seats, sound, feel, everything. Just needs a computer swap though.

Anyways...thought I would share.
