The only thing we have going for us when compared to an '03-04 Cobra is the weight advantage. You're still going to have to make about 640rwhp to match his power to weight ratio. (assuming I remember their curb weight right)

About 3600 lbs for the coupe empty. They are not light cars.

I raced a slightly modded blown '04 Cobra before, and managed to only get one length on him. No mistake, they're pretty fast. Also, they pull a lot harder in 3rd gear than they do from a dig.

man yeah those cobras are nice but they way a lot more than your car and your car could own it on a track so just be consoled in that...lol

Straight line performance doesn't make a car fast. You could easily take him with something that requires actually turning the wheels...



What's the point of all that power if you can't put it down in a corner without losing all hopes of traction?



Non-tractable power sucks.
