Inconcievable.

Is it the silver 03 with the side exhaust that an older gentleman drives? That one sounds nice.

well, since i know you so well, if you did beat one, it would have been in road kill.......and its not.......but by no means am i saying you cant beat one, cause your car is a low 12 second car on the highway....

i have little runs here and there almost everyday that i dont post in road kill. i only post runs in there when i think the other person might be on the board, or there was something funny about the run. and, no it wasnt that older guy with the silver cobra, i know who your talking about though and i talk to him about his car too, and yeah it does sound good. thinking about it ricky....your right....if i did beat a cobra i woulda posted the hell outta that shit. you know me so well. i may run this guy, who knows? ill post how it turns out if i do.

a cobra has 380, not sure what at the wheels though.
12.9 for a stock LS1 sounds kinda generous, isn't it?

and a blown Cobra makes 390 hp, and tq at the crank, however they're known to put 380 to the wheels, I think Ford underrated, what do you think?

In answer to the thread topic, I'm pretty sure on '99 and '01 Cobras, they ran 245's. On the new Cobras ('03 and '04) they run Eagle F1's 275's.

EDIT: I just realized we have different people talking about three different types of "what a Cobra runs" here.

-I'm talking tire size
-Someone else is talking price
-and everyone else is talking E/T

What exactly do you want to know?

12.9's are attainable. It all depends on what you consider stock. A driver jumps in with john force driving skills It can happen.

I think boostedls1 ran a 12.89 with very very few mods. (not stock, but close...dont know what mods) and he ran a 13.0 with only like an intake.

EDIT: youd have to ask him, not sure.

You know what else is scary, that is done with about $1500 or less in mods.

Oh and about the guy saying the scale is off, you must remember, your car weighed that with you in it, and a tank of gas, and liquids are heavy as balls. When they put these on the scale and publish them in magazines and such they are usually dry weight.
