ok my friends father who is a ford fan says that the 2003 cobra cant break out of the 13's stock. He says and very good driver can get low 13's. he says this because in one of motor trends magazines it has the 03 doin a 13.9. he does not believe the 03 can get into the 11's bpu i.e. pullie,chip,exhaust,cai,drs or ets. is there ne way to prove to him what the car can really do??
:bash: :read:

yes, just tell him to watch this thread.
He'll learn a lot about what a stock and not so stock Cobra is capable of.

Bone stock cars are running at least hi 12's with a practiced driver and basic power ups are in the 11's easily.

I could send him my time slip.
low 11's and still the stock eaton.

uhhh. . .has he been under a rock? He is a ford 'fan' right? Tell him to pick up 5.0mustang or Muscle Mustangs and fast fords and tell him to read any article they have on an 03 cobra. The 03 cobra does 12's stock.

An 01 cobra can even run faster then a 13.9

mine was 12.8 at 109 BONE STOCK and I have a video if he wants to see it. I know of 4 03 with pulley exhaust chip and cai in the mod 11s now and if he wants a video of that got one of those too.

High 12's and Low 13's are easy

I've turned 12.97 @ 108 with Nitto Road racing tires, very minor engine mods. And...And...that's at 5800 ft. above sea level with 474 RWHP and uncorrected 369 RWHP.

If I was at sea level I would expect to be in the low 12's or high 11's, especially with drag slicks.

I ran 12.6 @ almost 114 when my car was dead stock right down to the air in the tires. If he wants to put up some money I will put my car back to 100% stock and show him some mid 12 second time slips.:coolman:
