Default 04 cobra to fast for gt500

at the track friday night i saw a 04 cobra smoke a new gt500. is the cobra really faster than the gt500 or did the shelby dude just not know how to drive. the ran 3 times and the cobra won every time. im perty sure both cars were stock. or at least thats what was going round the track.

Last time I was at the track there was a GT500 there the best it could do was a 12.6 at like 118 or something like that.. he would spin till about half track..

gt500s may have 500 bhp, but they also weigh near 5,000 lbs... a 04 cobra should have around 410-420 bhp (we all know ford underrated them @ 390) and weights 3500-3800 ish, weight has ALOT to do with it
