No he doesn't... cause if he did, he wouldn't be driving an 03 cobra. :burn:
Back to the race, you would need the basic performance upgrades to win. I think Treynor has one or a similar one that runs 118 - 120 mph in the 1/4-mile. His may have a couple of upgrades though.

Just look at the 1/4 mile time on the site machncobra posted. 11.9 @ 120 stock. Frankly, you don't have much of a chance without a good deal of modding. You'll probably need an aftermarket blower to put a little hurt on him. On the bright side, I doubt the MB will ever be modded too much. I'm betting the aftermarket is smaller, and parts will be damn expensive.

4500lbs disadvantage, 100hp advantage if the specs are the same as the 03... hmph =\
I ran a 12.0 with my Cobra after installing a 2.80 upper, CAI, chip and full Bassani exhaust. On street tires. 1.92 60 ft. I put BFG drag radials on and went 11.89 at 120.00. Good luck. Depends on driver !!
Specs for the 1999 SL600 which is the same as the 2000.

Ah sh&t.....the Cobra will woop his a$$
You may be surprised buddy....there's allot of people with money that DON'T need to show it by buying a Benz:bash:
I'm here...but the question has been answered. The only way the 2000 SL600 can win is if the cobra started in 5th gear @ 50.
srry guy's... didnt know it was a 2000 model :shrug: ;-)
