99 Cobra vs SRT 8 Charger *VID!*

[COBRABRAD]

I did toss a "seems" in there, but anyway? But we'll play anyway. mid = .5, correct? Please to inform me of the number of stock 99s running 13.5? And the number hitting 13.7s?

What would you consider the correct number?

MM&FF September, 2001 issue - Review of the bone stock 2001 Cobra. 276.6 HP 291.0 TQ STD Dynojet dyno. 13.343 @ 104.23 "90 Degree temps, high humidity and a low barometer".

See, this is where I'm getting my info. As I said, I prefer to use averages, not one or two freak times. All of these seem to indicate what I said.

Oh, one more thing.........

You win, I bought my Cobra new in April 2001, apparently you know much more about my car already, boy do I feel silly.
In case you're not smart enough, that is sarcasm. All of the posts from the new edge forum dating back to when the 01 was new have dropped off, but there were many examples of low 13's there. What I did show was a VERIFIABLE example of a low 13 time from a magazine. What is the lowest stock magazine time of the land yacht in question?

I have seen as low as 13.0x and as high as 13.4x in the magazines for the Charger SRT-8.

Odd, only those dropped off? But not this one, dated July of 01.

So, the cars came out, when? Fall of 00, folks ran a bunch of low 13s, then it never happened again? One mag got one time. And hardly an unbiased mag at that. Lowest time ever given for the SRT-8 is the JAN/FEB issue of Speed Magazine, which gave it an 11.5, but I dont believe that. And I dont quote the one example of one going 12.5, even though members of three different forums witnessed that. I throw out the lowest point.

As I said, I use averages, as given by the community of owners. Looking at what folks here post, anything below 13.5 is suspect. I dont say SRT-4s will do 13.6 stock, I say 13.8 for a good driver, good conditions. Average about 14 flat. Which indicates some will be above that, some below.

Sorry if you get insulted by analytical thinking. I dont mean to belittle your car, just stated what the cars appear to capable of running, as said by members , not one member, but a concensus.

I never claimed to know more about your car than you, just reported what folks here, who should be the experts, say about how fast it goes, take it up with them.

There is no way a stock SRT8 could run a 11.5 you must be smoking something. And yes junior when thay came out in the spring of 2001 quite a few people did get low 13's. Yes the SRT8 Charger is nice, I have driven one, what it is not is fast.

Lowest time ever given for the SRT-8 is the JAN/FEB issue of Speed Magazine, which gave it an 11.5, but I dont believe that.

I already said I dont believe that number, silly. Your list is nice and all, but really, stock depends on who you talk to. Some folks think stock means stock motor, tires are switchable, or maybe programming, whatever suits their case.

The list at SRTforums is full of 13.6 "stock cars", I certainly dont use that to prove anything. If thats 86strokerlx, hes never mentioned that run, if not, that guy (86stroker) not an active member.

See, some folks will post corrected times, or "hey, I only dropped the exhaust and hit with a 100 shot, I didnt change anything.". In any case, its not that big a deal.

[2_1337]

do you have spacers on your wheels

 

[sonic_4.6]

OHHHHHHHHHH ya! So I only started out with 1/4 inch spacers due to the fact that I thought BFGs would fit just like Nittos would.... wrong!
The BFGs run wide as HELL, so I now have 3/4 inch spacers (and still barly clears), rounded IRS bolts, and longer studs.
