I was decapitated

Agreed, most Lightings with an eaton and 4# or 6# lower dyno around 400/500 which is good for about 12.7 + at the track. Plus he probably didn't race past 60mph which is when cobra's can do some serious damage to a Lightning.

If he raced a KB or Whippled Lightning that had good traction, then I could see him getting pulled on pretty hard.

Yeah, I raced a guy with a bolt on Lightning making around 400/500 back when my Mach was N/A making right at 300/320. The race was dead even from a 30 punch 2 times in a row. I can't see a Cobra (stock or not) losing to anything not heavily modded.

Yeah you Cobra owners are at a very good advantage when it comes to modding. Yeah the Lightning guys can throw a port, exhaust and pulley it but still the engine has its quick limits. I am finishing up my 2.3 KB setup tomorrow on my stock block and will be getting tuned this week. Hopefully I can pull some nice times at the track and have my block last

Yep, just wait until ya tangle with a 10 second deisel truck with paste on headlights on the freeway. I knew it was gonna be ugly, just didn't know HOW ugly it'd get.

+1 and then i found out about n2o

I think you need a taste of the new ride. :beer:

Hey man at least you lost to a lightning. I had a SRT-4 pull bus lengths on me in my Camaro, talk about having a shitty feeling afterwards.

I guess that had to have been a pretty modded L. I think they are sick trucks and wouldnt be dissappointed at losing to one. I dont drive a Termie either though.
