So thats saving over 16000 in mods and I woulda done all that exceprt for the wheel cause $4000 for wheels are too much IMO and 19"s are rediculous for tires

Yeah the guy at LA said that they like to do a more conservative tune so people dont just go blow them up The car was doing 479 rwhp but was too lean and idled ruff so they pulled some timing (he said was 28* and pulled it to 23*) and a hair of fuel cause the injectors were at 90%. If it were me I would get larger injectors and better pumps and let her rip. As it is I have only floored the car once and had a depends moment. It built 13lbs on the Autometer gauge and was just awesom. It amazes me how much its like my Cobra just feels like a Big Block is under the hood.
Down size is I can really feel the extra few hundred pounds on it. My car stops better but his brakes feel better. I was behind him on this old farm road and he took off and I got on my Cobra and stayed right behind him only loosing a length or two, shifting at 7 grand and sliding a little in second and third. We got back and Im all happy and he said "I was only at mabey 60% throttle on that acceleration run" F'ing burst my bubble

My steering is actually firmer but he has 255/35/19 and I got 285/40/17 up front. My Cobra always felt better than any of the GTs I drove and was told Cobras all have different racks than regular Stangs
So since your in Texas and both Termis are about the same power wise we should get together and race
JK about the racing but getting a group of Cobras together for a cruise would be killer. 04sleeper gets together with 8 or 9 other Cobras every third (I think) Saturday in Dallas at a Mcy D's. Ill take my lowly underpowered Cobra and pops would bring his, itd be cool

So I clayed and buffed it out today to notice the cobras are on the wrong sides Both are facing backwards We knew the whole nose was repainted 2 years ago due to massive rock chips, we have all the pics of before and after from the body shop so we know it wasnt dammaged just chipped. But damn what an idiot the shop guy must of been
/END RANT

Thats a little easier to fix. So are the rear wheels wider replicas or something?

IDK Whats SAR? Im a little under an hour from Ennis motorplex (Texas Raceway) I think Friday is open day, they do it a couple Fridays a month. I really want to go and if someone else would go it would be enough encentive. Hell its only $15 to run as much as you can

Thanks eliteJAE I love it and its not even mine, although thoughts of an early demise so I can inherit it NOW come to mind
