I'm just gonna take a guess but doesnt the cobras have like 275-300hp? I would say we'd get killed...With mods could do a lil bit better but we'd still get killed on just regular mods.....Correct me if i'm wrong but i think thats what would happen

It doesn't [stack up]. It's like an 05 V6 racing an 05 GT. 305HP/300ft-lbs at the crank... they'd beat us in reverse.

its basically the same as a mach 1, so even if you had a GT you would still loose, but if it was a basic GT it would be more of a drivers race

We would be eaten alive, however the older gt's depending on what they have done we would be right with them. I do know this for a fact my brothers mustang I probably have a hard time keeping up with him and his is completely stock.
