**so just how quick is my vic!?!?**UPDATE**w/PICS on post #1***

My bro showed up at my house today with a suprise!!! He's just traded his 00 v6 mustang in for an 01 Cobra!!! He let me drive it and.........the car felt sluggish, 2nd gear pull felt only decent. So we swung back by the house, i got my car, and we took them out. We went from a 2nd gear roll, 30mph, and I was right by his side !!!!! He started to pull away on me by 80, but by 100mph i was no less then a car lenght behind. My bro was shocked too!! A few people in a Silvia saw the whole thing and flagged us down when we turned into target. They were wraggin on my bro, "A CIVIC!?"






Update

Here's the pics i promised everyone. Sorry it took longer than i thought, my bro hasn't been home since this happened, but he suprised everyone and is staying the weekend with us.

haha, it wasn't technically a kill, he was a car ahead of me, but yes, i'm thinking his cobra's busted or something, haha.

I dunno what HP his car has, but this is an 01, non-supercharged cobra

My bro isn't the best of driver's, so i'd expect he'd do the low 14s. Last week i walked on a 14.6 sec 00 Si with i/h/e and skunk2 cams, so i'm pretty reassured i'm on his *** at the strip too, haha. (w/ DR's at least cuz otherwise i'd get smoked on the line )

great ... does your brother know how to drive ? it was his first time driving the cobra, so I'm sure that he wasn't used to the car yet ...

why go from a 2nd gear roll? ... anyway, 01 cobras stock are good for probably mid-low 13's with a good driver ... your car is probably good for a flat 14

This reminds me the time I was racing this F-16 from a dig and of course he got off the line better than me but by the time I was in 3rd gear vtec, I was at his afterburners and stayed there. After we shut down, at the next airfield Goose and Maverick gave me a thumbs up.

My buddy has a 96 cobra stock and that thing is silly. It sounds mean as hell but its pretty tame. Dont know how the 96 compares to 01 but I was unimpressed in the 96 cobra
