I get what your saying their (Vette) weight and aerodynamic advantage will be to much for a stock Cobra to overcome. And I fixed that little typo for ya.

They stated that the cobra made over 400rwhp with just a filter. The LS3 makes a little more Rwhp than the underrated Cobra, but 450 less pounds on the vette is what will make this race a blowout. Oh yea I believe the ls3 has gotten into the 11s bone stock now, just like I said would happen.

Put it like this, throw a set of slicks on each car under good conditions and Id bet the LS3 would hit high 11'sand the cobra low 12's. Weight is thy enemy with the cobra vs a vette, 3700+ vs 3200 is a big enuf deal in 1/4 mile racing and throw in 370rw vs 400rw and its icing on the cake. I love the cobras, but vettes are just a bit better of a pkg for racing.

Forget it guys, the Vette just has too much weight/aerodynamics advantage. Takes a good bit of HP advantage to counteract that.....and the proper tires/suspension to put it to the ground with. It's doable, but not with a stock or bolt-on Terminator. Two different classes of car here folks.

That I won't argue with. It seems that GM's are always faster up top, and Fords always have the edge out of the hole/bottom end

Vette will win. Even if the termie was pullied the vette would still walk away up top. Those C6s are damn fast cars

I Love mustangs and would want to see a stang beat a vette but I have to admit Vette IS KING. I was in my friends and that thing is amazing! CRAPPY suspention but it seems to work. GREAT CAR!Its gonna take some mods to beat a c6 or c5z. SO BOW DOWN WHEN U SEEA VETTE. (unless your making crazy HP)

What Vette owner would be stupid enough to add 500 lbs worth of ballast just to make things more even???[&:]
