Why not? he beats highly modified LS1s on a daily basis. A few races before the E55, he was spanking a yellow WS6 owned by the guy who edits those videos (98snakeeater)</P>

what get's me here all the people who think they can drive.....I wish I could get a group rate for the frank holley driving school... there are cars with 800+ hp on drag radials that don't spin all over the place. how many here power shift at 6500-7000K on all 5 gears?...a few...I do it in t-5 's I have yet gernaded 1 yet (crossing fingers)...the boy loss plain and simple...if he wants to race then practice and come back and do his things but for us to say if I-me was driving is like being a back seat driver at this point wouldn't ya say<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley3.gif border="0">

vfast - When I feel like it I can avoid spinning the tires. It's just I don't get anywhere fast until 3rd gear (and I don't powershift 3, 4, or 5, I'm afraid). But I want to wear out the kumhos and get a set of drag radials. Then we'll see.

The fact of the matter is simple</P>


The E55 is faster...so what ?? the Cobra is still respectable.</P>


This modified Cobra only proves anyone is beatable, it wasnt the Mustang drivers poor driving at all...he was outclassed by a very expensive car, all you non-believers would say it was a poor drivingeven if a top-fuel dragster beat him...lol</P>


Needless to say had this been an oval track the Benz would have really busted chops on the stang.</P>

I was talking about stock cars, I've seen the video and the modes done to the Cobra before my post, what I meant is the Cobra lost to a very expensive car, sad but no shame in losing to a car with that sticker price, and don't forget the Cobra weights about 3800lb, with 4.6L engine, while the E55 weight is 4200lb, not that far, and has 5.5L + electronics you only dream of.
Here is some performance numbers(Car&Driver Magazine):
E55 AMG:
0-60: 4.2sec
0-100: 9.8sec
0-150: 22.5sec
1/4mile: 12.3sec@(don't remember)
Top speed: 187m/h(with speed limiter!! Road&Track)
2001 Viper GTS:
0-60: 3.9sec
0-100: 8.9sec
0-150: 22.3sec
1/4mile: 12.2sec@(does it matter?)
Top speed: 186m/h-192m/h(various magazines)

Thanks
