The one race I saw with the 03 Cobra, the driver of the Cobra was a girl (don't flame me ladies) and she could not shoot from a dig at all. The SRT had her by 3 cars in the 1/8th, but the Cobra pulled back to 1 car in by the 1/4. With a good launch the Cobra should have won by 4-5 cars. A n/a'd Cobra should win by 1-2 cars in the quarter with equal drivers and equally stock or modified cars.

My car trapped 113-114 consistently w/ out nitrous...on the bottle I was going 120+. That $3500 in mods, all mods including lowering it, not just power mods.
don't get me wrong I think my cobra is a better car but it's not faster than my old neon srt and mine isn't stock.
SVT32VDOHC said:I highly doubt that. That is a mid to high 13 second car with a Stage I on it. Also, a 2.27 60ft time with little power will never propel a you into an E/T or trap like that.
Although no matter how fast an SRT-4 is....the owners are still driving a NEON, and that really has to suck...
