[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 16289703, member: 35549"] I daily drove my 01 Cobra when it was around 600rwhp. Still knocked down decent mileage and I could creep through traffic with the best of them. Granted it was a 5.3 engine with Ford GT cams. So I could lug it down to 600rpm with no issue. It never bucked or fought me on the take off. After I put the F1A on it was more of a nice day driver. But I'd still drive it to work once in a while. I worked on base for a while and my buddy told me he could always tell when I was coming around the corner because he'd hear the blower before seeing the car. More of a concern would be traction. I ran NA for a while so I had some crappy Sumitomo tires on the car. I put a T trim on it and after it decided to change lanes unexpectedly when I punched it I went back to drag radials quickly. Decent tires are a must when you get up there in power. As well as being aware of your surroundings. If I punched it getting on the freeway I would be well over 100mph before the end of the on ramp. Things happen a lot faster at those power levels. [/QUOTE]
