Jesus has been building another crazy Supra. I don't know the status on it any more though. If memory serves that's the second video.

First I wanna say the E55 is one of my favorite cars.... Yes it does have traction control hence teh great hook up... But honestly I think if teh cobra coulda hooked the out come woulda been different... You can here it slippn... but that my opinion...

If Mercedes traction control is anything like BMW traction control, I don't think the AMG owner was using it. If it is and he was, that E55 is waaaaay more badass than that vid is showing.

ok ok ok....that was a AWESOME vid.

I am not trying to be a cobra mark or anything.

That Merc is just down right nasty, no way in the world to doubt or take anything from it.

Soooooo, with that being said?!? The cobra clearly has some serious traction issues. But we all know to run what you brung!

SOOOOOOO, if we all payed close attention to the very first match between these two, the cobra on the final run looked to have a faster MPH coming to the finish. I noticed this again on the 2nd run of the REMATCH.

This would make me think, that if on a track (1320) that the Cobra would come out on top! Do you all agree, or am I just completely wrong?

None the less, I can't get over the dead traction that Merc is getting, just mind boggling.

I noticed that, too. Seemed like the cobra has more power to work with, but when you can't put it down, it's useless.

Too hard to call but in any case TheShow50h is right.
