Would love to get back out on the strip once more. Compared my slip to a friend with a HCI fox and my 1/8th mph was only one higher than his. I’m guessing the car was still spinning up to half track. Trap speed shows me it has the power to be deep into the 12s

It's all in the 60ft. I ran 12.80 with stock gt40 irons,cobra intake and a stock cam. 1.70 60ft. Your cars probably on the heavy side as well.

Do you remember your 1/8th? It just seems off that it gains so much mph in the back half

Another guy on YouTube with similar setup, just a little more boost ran a 12.5@111 2.1 60’ and then a best of 12.3 @118.

That was over 20yrs ago,and I'm old Your mph is revealing your hp/weight. Your poor e.t is due to the 60ft. Your car is capable of low 12s-high 11's. However that will require a full slick. Drag radials will help alot , and are pretty streetable.

Ordered a 3.47” pulley as I’m starting to worry about consistently running 12-13psi on the stock motor. Fueling is good but better safe than sorry. No new updates otherwise, just daily driving her, sold the CTS-V so she’s the only daily. Looking good as ever

The new lineup! This will help to keep some miles off the Cobra and to keep it as the fun weekend car.

Needed some front brakes and decided to do a full upgrade. My current metallic pads dust a ton and make my wheels brown and dirty in a few days. Ran these on my V and loved them

Bought 1995 cobra convertible with hardtop new #986. Retirement present to me. My only new car purchase. Car has 17,000 miles still running on original tires. Don’t run very far or very fast.

Pretty brakes.. waiting for spring break off classes to install these.

Much overdue wash after tons of pollen covering the car.

Cheapskate207 · Mar 5, 2023

Pollen.. crazy to think about. Here in Maine we’ve got several months before we start that season. Just got 12” of snow yesterday!

Cars looking great!!

Monkeybutt2000 · Mar 5, 2023

Pollen,one of the many things I DON"T miss about Florida.

bird_dog0347 · Mar 5, 2023

Here in TX it's the same, I'm not even gonna wash the truck for a few more days as there's no point.

Pollen is bad right now in Florida. Plus dry season. We may not see rain for months

Haven’t seen rain in about a month here, the day I wash the car, we get hours of rainfall

Got the brakes installed. Had to replace passenger side front caliper due to a seized piston: always something..

Essn95 · Mar 22, 2023

Fresh lights really cleaned things up
