Hi to all,
Late Friday night, I was coming home from my friend

 

Nice kill.

'96 and up Cobras don't have pushrods, btw. They are DOHC V8.

 

Damn...zoran beat me to it...they're modular, not pushrod

Good run! they pick up alot of speed with the 4.33's and pulleys!!

 

that's about what I though a 96-98 Cobra would do with an S2000...

power to weight ratio is

11.70 lbs/hp for the S2000
11.16 lbs/hp for the Cobra

with the Cobra (.34 Cd) being slightly more aerodynamic than the S2000 (.36/.38 Cd top up/down), but slightly more frontal area

68.9" wide and 50.6" high for S2000
71.8" wide and 53.2" high for Cobra

 

It's 430's not 433's , and that why he killed you off the line. I'm suprised he didn't light up the tires from a roll w/ those gears. I only have 373's and I can burn mine form anything under 35mph if I mat it.

Honestly, I'm suprised you hung with him and then top ended him- Nice job.

P.S. - Pullies add 6-8rwhp and 7-10rwtq. I dont know how much rwhp the exhaust is good for though since you didnt mention if it had a catback or X- pipie.

 

nice kill!
im always afriad of cobras, but in truth , maybe i can hang with a few of them...

 

Saud2k-In the following post I am assuming your car is stock.

As long as the Cobras are not modded play away and you will win a few races (I'm talking about 96-98 Cobras). I would suggest playing from a roll because S2k's are hard to launch and if you don't launch your not going to beat one form a stop.
Playing from a roll is a different story as you can use your car's strengths better. A 25-30 mph roll would be perfect as a Cobra ( with the stock 327's) would be right in between 1st and 2nd gear.

I just wanted everyone to know that a 98 cobra does not have pushrods. It's a DOHC engine. A cobra's true dual exhaust is not annoying either.

 

It dont matter if the cobra has a pushrod v8 or not. I dont even have half the engine and torque of the cobra, and still pulled on him! Its still a ford with old school technology!

Sorry, but I am tired of hearing v8's! I think they are annoying! I rather hear a F20C or SR20DET. V8's are for the 60's & 70's. My opinion.
