Fully gutted, built, nitrous, DR's...He didn't even have a passenger seat or any carpet or plastics in the car. Double limo tint. I got suckered and I was on sumi's with a PI engine and 2.73's.
I NEVER EVER take any car for granted anymore.

Time frame reference. I never raced a Termi or LSx car before I was built. I walk termi's and LSx's now. I'm sure it's a quality of race issue to. I out RW most of the cars in my area and the ones that are close, it comes down to tires and Driving.
(im referring to street racing btw. I don't make it to the track very often and not at all since I finished my last build.)

I like the fourth gen stangs the best. More specifically the 02'-04'. Also I was looking at some cars online and I can only seem to find cobra svt converts. Don't they come in a coupe? And where does the mach 1 and shelby fit on the scale? Again guys, thanks for the top notch education.

Yes the Cobra comes in a coupe. Cobra is a 4v supercharged, MACH 1 is a 4v not supercharged, a GT is a 2v. Mach 1s are great bang for buck. Cobras are great too. Gt is good to build on as well. If you are talking about building, the only real factor is what model you like the LOOKS of the best. The rest can all change.

Its all preference , I just love fords and love it even more when there technology topple the all mighty GM ZEUS INSPIRED LSx engines. Look at the new Camaro's , that badboy is running about the same as the cobra's and it took GM all them years to make that car just as fast as the previous camaro's , Not impressed. Sure they are bad *** N/A engines but a boosted 281 is just as mean. I think the OP should build a fox because there awesome but a 2v baddy aint bad either.

This guy has my idea. He went 10.0's @ 140 mph with a bone stock LS1 (not even a LS2 or 7) shortblock on only a 100 shot with a 4000' DA. http://forums.corral.net/forums/show....php?t=1164831
