hey, i have a friend that tells me that no mustang could ever handle, he sais that if he can just slap on some 1k struts and coilovers on his nissan 240 sx he will out handle a Cobra R, I keep telling him that a Cobra R's handle at 1.0 G ( If i can remember ) and he still won believe me, can anyone hlp me find a link or a website that will give me sufficient proof that will finally convince him that cobra R's can handle. can any one give me any info about this THANKS, peace

 

lmao... this guy thinks a purpose built road racer with 385 hp can't handle?

 

I have 1 in my avitar, and I think they run the 1/4th in 13. </P>


"<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Suspension and Steering
To complete the performance equation, the SVE team has engineered the Cobra R’s suspension to provide handling that matches its high power output. The Cobra R’s suspension follows the SVT tuning philosophy for road cars, compliant and subtle, but at a much higher level, with a strong emphasis on race-track handling. </FONT></P>
<P align=left><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The engineers optimized tuning to balance center-of-gravity height, aerodynamic downforce, ride height, overall grip on bumpy roads, along with driving fun and driving ease at the limit. The result is a car that achieves a remarkable lateral acceleration measurement over 1.0g on the 100-foot skidpad."</FONT></P>

yeah, he still thinks that the cobra R jus has a nice pair of struts, and that is has good tires, im a look for more info on it, any one know what makes the Cobra R handle so great.

 

</P>


</P>


basically the body components, lowered it, and balanced the weight if i read that correctly</P>

 

it takes alot more than aftermarket struts and tires to pull 1g

 

Remind him that a Dodge Caravan is fast enough to beat his 240sx and that should end this discussion immediately.
