"I thought for sure the Cobra was in trouble with 1000+ hp and stock wheels? Why have that much power and try to run with either street tires or drag radials? You need a full slick, larger than what would fit on stock wheels."

I guess what they say is true... Ignorance is bliss! Most of you have never stepped foot in a 600 hp car, much less a 1000 hp car. How can you judge what is fast and what isnt... off of what you have seen on Tsreetfire or Putfile??? Other peoples kids, I swear!

Since you quoted me...I will respond. I step in and see a 600 rwhp everyday...mine. See the sig. And after driving it at the track with a 10 inch wide drag radial at the track, I think I can quote from experience...I know what fast is. Do you? Just keep your lame ASSumptions to yourself. :rollseyes

At 115+ in the 1/8 he was having a bad day or just toying with that Vette. That car can trap close to 150.

Yeah those videos of him running 114-115mph in the 1/8th say this car will move the fock out. He must not have had it turned up very high, because he wasn't even pulling as hard as he was in those 1/8 mile vids where he was going mid 6's @ 114-115mph.

I couldn't see the 1st vids but I saw the later ones posted up of the 1/8mile passes and that car is bad ass. Especially runnin that with no 2-step. The vette he runs in the last vid is no joke either. It went 6.6 at 110. 2 fast ass cars.

Like I said, Ignorance is bliss. My ASSumptions will stick due to the fact that there is an overwhelming majority of ignorance here that talks out of their ASS. Me... I speak from experience also having owned a 700 rwhp DD that was totalled by an idiot right after it was sold. I dont know you anymore than you know the driver or the car in the video in this thread... so keep your ASSumptions under control also. :poke:

If that new Z had all that then something is very wrong. I know of a 100% stock Z and he has run 11.3 and he is not really a great driver.

Had to make me a user name to get some stuff straight....I only have a mild cam and my dyno numbers are 514rwhp. I have lg longtubes and borla exhaust. My best is 10.59. My first race clearly shows me missing 2nd gear.

i will tell ya'll since i work at the tmp on the starting line that the cobra did not have 1000hp but it is more like 850ish. Still, it is a bad ASS car! The vette was sick but was out of his element with that particular cobra. Also, he still does have his irs so cut some slack for manny.

EDIT: I just watched the vids and i am the one in the Ford Racing Beanie and Khaki colored carpenter pants.
