Yeah, I think he will get me by about 2 cars or so. But then again, it won't be the first time I've beaten a car that makes more power than mine lol.

I have to say the cobra as well in that case, dyno numbers are all fine and good but he's got a pretty solid car

that's going to be a rough run for you man. That cobra's mean... I'd try to go from a dig. i think yours is going to be easier to launch.

Cobra has a lot of money poured into that horsepower. He should win, but I don't think it's going to be ugly or anything.

Well it's 50/50 on the 98 saleen coming over, he said he won't drive his car on a wet road due to the car being a show car or something I guess. But I may run a 2011 GT500 with a pulley, intake, catback, tune and bigs and littles instead if the cobra doesn't show. Will post videos of anything that happens regardless.

If you guys do run on wet roads, be careful. I about took out a guard rail last night on a wet 4 lane. Thank God it was 4 lanes because by the time I straightened her back up, I had fishtailed back and forth across two lanes and into the grass missing the rail by a foot or so. All I did to lose it was change lanes to pass, gave it a 1/4 more throttle, and when it downshifted the rear slipped right out from under me.

That GT500 sounds like a challenge. Good luck man!
