9.3 seems kinda slow for that car, how good of a driver is he??? I know the 96 cobra has got to be quicker then mine

it will probably be a close race. who ever gets the hole shot first.


Yeah, that 96 cobra should have ran better than a 9.3 wow

I have to disagree...a 5.0 should get the hole shot...the 4.6 has a stronger top end. If he doesnt get the hole shot...then i would bet a lot of cash that he lost the race. Unless the other guy messes up....


Get out of the hole the fastest and dont look back. He'll be coming....

yea thats what i've been saying...from a dig, i think i could get him by a lil bit cause, ot to toot my own horn, but i practice a lot, and im pretty damn fast at shifting, so i dont think i'll have a problem there....from a roll, i kno ill lose, but not by a killing....the only mod hes got over me is the PI intake....we shall see

Its a convert so its a bit heavier, Hes a decent driver but probly some room for improvement, but ive rode with him down the track i dont see anymore that a 9 out of it maybe, he ALMOST beat a stock lightening. From a roll i dont stand a chance, its like im standing still.
