I said most well driven bolt-on fbodys are in the 12s, and pullied Cobras are in the 11s. You must have seen a lot of bad drivers, because around here 2 out of 3 pullied Cobras will run an 11 at a track meet. Some even on street tires.

no i dont know what the "faster" cobras can run at the track.. but i do know that the majority of the ones on here that i see... and ALL the ones i have seen in person.. run HORRIBLE times for their power levels/mods.. i have never seen one run faster than a 8 at the track.... and cant count how many "why is my car so slow" threads on here...

Around here I have seen horrible times from fbodys, cobras, vettes, GTOs, etc..It's all in the driver and tire. I've even seen h/c LS1 fbodys that could barely break 12s. I've seen C5 Z06s that run 13s, C6Z06s that can't break mid 12s, etc.

i can honestly say that i have a very slim idea of what a well built cobra/driven cobra can do at the track.. i do know what the fastest ones run with X mods... but not the majority of just the fast ones..

The couple of examples I posted in this thread are far from built. Most of them were with bolt-ons on the stockor ported blower, and the 10.4x KB car is a full weight car that doesn't even have headers with a stock suspension/IRS/6spd. I was trying to give you an idea of what a Cobra with relatively simple mods can do.

i believe/know that they can be pretty stout when properly setup... but like i am saying (trying to point out).. the majority are slow as balls for what they have.. wether it be tire/driver/car/etc.. i dont know..
|
Once again, I disagree. In bolt-on form these cars don't need much to be setup other than a sticky tire and a good driver. When I see a bunch of fbodys run horrible times I know enough about them to not believe the majority run those kinda times.
Anyways, coming from personally owning both platforms that's my opinion.

mmmmmm.. yes and know.. i could make a GTO go just as fast, probably faster.. i wouldnt mind an ls2... as long as its an a4..

On average H/C/I LS1 fbodys outrun GTOs by a pretty good amount. The fastest recorded H/C/I LS2 GTO runs high 10s, and the next fastest one runs mid 11s, (both automatics). What does your car weigh again? You do know GTOs weigh 3800lbs.

We kind of went off track, but oh well.
