Ok so a buddy of mine has an 04 cobra that's pretty close to stock, I guess the way I look at it. His car has 4lb lower pulley and diff upper pulley along with cat less exhaust, anyway it has some other mods his car dynode right around 500 horse. My car is in my sig and dynode just over 600 horse, so after driving his car for awhile and seeing that his car has run a high 11 at the track. The conclusion I have come to is the lower horse power cars are easier to get down the track or just plain drag with someone, I say this because it seems like the higher horse you go your running a fine line of breaking the tires loose or anything like that. With my car if the track wasn't just right it broke loose or if the tires weren't just right it broke loose, on the flip side if it did hook and you weren't just right on the throttle you either bogged down or got out and broke loose and I rand 2 different sets of drag radials this year. So for next year I am planning on switching out the fuel system and I am going to find a set of wheels I like and go back to et streets or et drags like I ran on my old cars and hope I don't break half shafts or anything else.
Just kind of wondering if anyone else agrees that's its easier to get the lower powered cars down the track and for that reason they are trapping better et's than higher power cars. Don't get me wrong I love being able to say my car has 600 horse to the tires my goal is to get it up to atleast 700 with the return fuel system and a change in pulleys.
