I have a couple other friends with 03/04 Cobra's that are quicker than mine and one with a twin turbo C5 FRC that I'll try and bring down as well.
I didn't mean to come off as a butt in that post and meant no disrespect to those that have swapped to solid axle or have performed weight reductions to their cobras.  That's what is bad about reading someone's post and not hearing/seeing the person speak I guess. I was just trying to explain that the cobra is a low miles, stock geared, bolt-ons car, and full weight (besides the Bogarts). As far as the power, we all know how dyno queens are and the true test of power/weight is your et's/mph (which depends a lot on the driver). I know there are plenty of less powered lighter cobras out there that will walk mine without a problem. I just choose to make the coupe my race/street car and the cobra my family cruiser that I sometimes have fun at the track with. If I was to sell the coupe and get serious with the cobra, I would prolly swap to a solid axle too and stuff the IRS away in storage. Again, sorry if I came off sounding like an azz!  I haven't posted on here much and I'm just trying to make sure that everyone knows my cars setup, I'm not trying to make a name for myself. I owe everything I have (my life, my health, and all that I have been blessed with) to my God and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! These cars are His toys, I just get to hold the titles for a little while.

Sound good man, I'd love to see some different cars come down this way.
I didn't think you came off sounding like an azz at all.
