I was heading home from Irvine with a friend driving my dad's 93 R1, We were in the fast lane and one lane over to the right and ahead by a few car lengths I see it. I'm not sure it was a Cobra at the time so i tell my friend "Hey is that a Cobra? Lets find out!" So I down shift into 4th gear and head on over. I pull along side this gorgeous blue with white strpies Shelby Cobra. (I don't know my US engine sizes but it was in the 400s, at least the badge on the side said it was) I look over to the right at him and give him the thumbs up of approval that his car is bad assed. He does the same. I look forward and think "I want to see if he'll bite" so I down shift to 3 and shoot away. Not knowing that he was motioning his hand to have a spirited run as well. (my friend saw it and told me later) I left the Cobra behind and the fwy had a slight rise and fall after about 1/2 mile. I slowed down after the fall and waited and waited and waited until finally I saw the cobra come over the rise. Now it wasnt a race or anything jsut a test of one's awesome machines. He came up next to me and waved and that was that.

You wouldn't of beaten a real cobra.
The real ones were about 500hp and 2600lpds. You do the math. |

that was a replica cobra as well, since you wouldn't drive a collectible that can go for 1 MIL under the right conditions.
Suprisingly, they were geared super close so on the top end who knows. |
