There is a huge difference from street racing and going to the track. Anything can happen on the street. If it were at the track the cobra would have smoked the AMG. That thing was an automatic and had street slicks on it. Autos are good for street racing because they are pretty consistant. The Benz could hook up the cobra couldnt, simple as that. If you cant put the power to the ground you should go from a roll.

With a lightning pully and some M/Ts I have seen an 03 cobra run a 11.68 @ 119 And that is with 441 rwhp.
That guy must have been one DAMN good driver, if you all remember the AMG E55 vs 03 Cobra video Kylabite got his ass raped 3 times buy a completely stock AMG E55...and that was juts in the rematch video. His cobra dyno'd around 441 hp if I remember right, 03 AMGs pull mid 12s quarter miles too.
A. Kylabite loses every race he races. That guy simply cannot drive. Hes running drag radials and all you hear is tire smoking in first and sometimes 2nd.
B. Nobody seems to notice on the vids, but the ones I have the 2nd time the cobra is catching back up to the AMG. The final run they are nearly door to door when he goes by.
C. the AMG wasnt stock, it had D/R on it. Says so right on the vid.
BTW i just looked at that vid again. The cobra smokes them all the way thru 1st, bogs like a bitch when he shifts into 2nd, then breaks them loose again all the way thru 2nd, and he almost loses it and goes into the other lane. If that right there doesnt show you the guy cant drive, well I dunno WTF will.
Want a quick way into the high 9s? Buy a 03 cobra, then buy a KB supercharger, exuast, and a custom tune.

a. he's won a few against 98snakeeater (the yellow trans am)
b. He was catching up, but you can't tell if he catches up after the AMG slows down or not.
c. In the first video he was stock and he literally raped the Cobra everytime they raced. in the 2nd video they both had gotten a few more mods and the already HEAVILY modded cobra was finally catching up to a NEARLY stock AMG. See my point now?
I've seen others of him. I'm not saying he can drive. I'm just saying, that if a Mustang doesn't win, to you guys, they just can't drive. And about the whole "buy a KB to get 9's," you're going to need more than that. Some sticky tires for one. Who the hell wants to buy a v8, run 20+psi boost, and only run 9's?

I expected no less from a Mustang enthusiast. To hook up you'd need slicks, a new rear end and if you don't know, people are already swapping in the 4 sp auto from the GTs to make their cobra go quicker and (as you said) be more consistent.
There's more ways to hit 9s other than the ALMIGHTY 03 Cobra.... you could buy an 02 LS1 SS, procharger supercharger, exhaust and K&N Airbox with lid. Done.
Viper, supercharger, slicks. Done.
Corvette Z06, Lingenfelter package, slicks. Done.
If speed is your game don't sit there and whine about costs like I KNOW you will.
