[QUOTE="O4COBRA, post: 10472272, member: 14003"] Finally made it out to the track last night. I wasn't expecting too much seeing how my car is just a basic 2.76 upper pulley car with exhaust and intake, put down 472/502 SAE. I don't have any suspension upgrades other than 14mm lower control arm bolts and H&R sports. At the start of the night I was thinking 11.90's in my head, knowing that was a little far fetched, but a goal. First run had some good wheel hop right off the start, had to let out and get back in it, and then proceeded to miss 4th gear and go 12.77@95. Then I pulled back around to the staging area, I pull up to the water box and while I'm getting ready for the burnout, another 03/04 Cobra is racing in front of me. And he proceeds to blow up his rear end or tranny right in front of me, just what an 03 Cobra owner wants to see right? After a half hour clean up on the track, I ran a 12.8@114 with a little wheel hop a little ways from the line. How is this possible to run 19mph faster, and a similar 60' time, and be slower ET? Last run of the night I had them dial me in to 12.6 hoping to break out of course. I then put down a 12.29@115 with a 2.050 60' on the final pass with absolutely no wheel hop!! So how did I do? Like I said I have no suspension mods other than springs and LCA bolts. The car is full weight, spare tire, 3/4 tank of gas, full interior and all, just the way I daily drive it. I'm on non DR KDW's at 40psi. I don't think the heavy TF wheels helped much either! All in all I'm pretty happy. I didn't go with sticky tires seeing how stock the suspension and the helpless IRS is. Pretty solid run I think for an upper only car on street tires @ 40psi...
