It says it towards the top. It's 17psi 580/550. It's a 2.3 with longtubes. There is no other motor work done.

o sorry guess I just skipped over it or missed it

damn! That was pretty good runs compared to most cobras under 600 rwhp I have seen

btw have you run marlon yet??

Na I haven't raced Marlon yet. His punk bitch ass don't want none! :eek::fart:

Lol. I've been wanting to for a while but it hasn't happened yet. We actually went out a couple months ago to get it done but had some unexpected obstacles and couldn't run. We kick it every weekend and live 5 min. apart so it'll happen eventually. He will be the highest HP car I've ran, so not much of a HP advantage on my end. On paper, I should lose. But I'm more of the type to go out and get 'er done than speculate.

But IMHO, me and him will be a damn good run! :rockon:

Can you upload those vids at youtube?? I freaking hate Photobucket...

Please please I wanna see the vids :lol1:

Bro, I created a youtube account and the videos are uploading now - just for your viewing pleasure. Lol.

:beer:

I can't watch the vids from my phone but I was in the car so I know how it went down lol. That was very fun and both cars run hard! If the cobra could get traction it looks to be about 4 cars faster. I love how hard The cobra pulled on the top end. Good shit bro!

Thanks bro. The vids didn't come out as good as they usually do with the old faithful point and shoot, but you did a good job filming :thumbsup:

Last night was hella fun though! Tony's car is hella clean! :bowdown:

Lots of posts to qoute, but thanks everyone. Was definitely a fun night.

God damn. You pulled him after he was already in front of you.:bowdown: Good runs and your car runs hard.:rockon::dancenana::coolman:
You pretty much predicted the outcome, traction or no traction. :beer:

But I have to be honest, I was surprised on how hard I pulled him on the top end. But we can't take anything away from his car - that shit is fast, AND clean!

can we get a brief list of mods for the cobra please. Like what psi you running? 3.4 or 2.3? longtubes? motor work?

My car is a basic set up 2.3L Whipple. It's pullied for 17lbs (3.25'' pulley) and makes 580RWHP/550RWTQ.

I have full bolt ons, which include long tubes. Motor is 100% stock. Stock top end, stock bottom end.

Minus the spare tire and jack removed, my car is and has always been full weight. I had a passenger and the C6 Z was by himself with a 1 sub and amp in car.

BTW, I did make a mistake on his mod list. He has a tune and straight pipes only, not an intake and straight pipes. Not that it makes that much of a difference, but my bad. :beer:

The cobra was spinning. Watch the last video where the z was out in front and the cobra caught him and passed him.:shrug: Not taking anything away from c6z's but the cobra in the vid is/was def faster than the z in the vid.

I was simply stating that basically an all motor car with nothing done to it ripped the Cobra out of the hole and put up a damn good fight with a car pushing 18 lbs of boost. Just shows the tremendous difference in engineering between the two.
