I ran my wife's 99 Cobra vert last year. It dynoed at 317 RWHP, 316 RWTQ. It has 315/35/17 Nitto DR's and 4.10 gears. My best times were:

60' 1.972

330' 5.525

1/8 8.421 @ 85.40 MPH

1000' 10.924

1/4 13.036 @ 106.54 MPH


Invest in some DR's and get you some 4.10 or 4.30 gears and you will shave your time on down. Good Luck!!

Get yourself a spare set of wheels (slicks/skinnies) if your going to frequent the track. My 99 with 299rwhp was good for 7.76 @ 86.87mph.....with 312rwhp it went 7.74 @ 89.46mph which I plan to improve later this year. :banana:

Just curious. I am going to the track tonight and we are running the 1/8th mile. All my mods and hp #s are in my sig. What should I expect? I have never ran the 1/8th mile.

Very good times for your power levels! :beer:

Do you have weight reduction besides the wheels and tires?
