The cobra had some nice mods too!!Nice vid, but I hated the outcome;those E55s are nice and quick but i never figured them for cobra beaters.</P>
The cobra couldnt get any traction though, and the E55 sounded like it had a little more than drag radials.</P>
Give us some more vids </P><edited><editID>95Stealth302</editID><editDate>37957.9870949074</editDate></edited>

The Cobra needed some tires otherwise he would have wasted that E55. He has some mods that should put him well into the low 12's...or he should just let me drive and I would have won! HAHA

E55s come stock with 349 Hp, and a 10.5:1 compression ratio. They run 5.1 0-60 and the quarter in 13.6. This is in response to the cobras 390hp, and 12.8 quarter time. The cobra should waste him. This was a fluke, or they didn't give us all the facts.

It has as much Flywheel rated hp STOCK, as the Cobra does with mods at the wheels.</P>

Cool... that Mercedes is pretty nice and yes, that cobra was doing low 12's to high 11's...My friend with the Cobra(same color too)has about the same modswith a very good tune; he's doing 470 to the wheel with 503 lbs of torque. He has Nitto drags or 555's though <IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">. He should have wasted that E55.. </P>
