poll.... 4cy vs 8cy
I have beaten many and many have beat me. This is like beating a dead horse.

Half Fast are you paying attention. I'm not comparing my car to Dr.Dirt's here. Usually your reading comprehension is pretty good but I fail to see how my 12.8 is out of the ball park against a stock 03/06 cobra. Perhaps you could give me a ballpark explanation.

BTW, Doc's current project is similar in mods to yours and weighs more too. It is not dialed in yet, and he may even be a good driver . . . . for an ol'fart.

I posted this here somewhere else, it was depressing.
Car: $35,000 (A-plan + rebates like a mofo then slapped with much upside downage from the POS Dodge = break even )
Mods: $4000 (all mods speed and otherwise)
Total: $39000
More to come of course, as stated by my fellow Cobra brethren it won't end there
$4000.00 worth of mods onto a stock cobra to get there and this guy drives pretty well. Take the 4000 away and I would win this race.

Dr. Dirt I have raced 3 different stock SC Cobras at BMP at track events and a couple at Sunshine. Pretty confident they didn't all screw up. Like I said weight does make a difference. If it didn't guys wouldn't be gutting their cars. Look 12.845 with only 251RWHP in the 1/4. I'd say weight and driving make a hugh difference.

) and see if you can still hang.Not too long ago, I had a '64 Falcon with a carbed 302, stock 3 speed tranny but it was stripped and weighed in little more than your car does. It cranked out a whole 320 hp. It ran low 12's like clockwork. Torque 'r' us.
