Some of the Cobras are freaks so the shifter works. Some are so bad that they are literally causing damage to people. :nonono:
I think Dean, who is our current 11 sec hero, may get his shoulder operated on.
After the UPR schtuff, mine is day and night different.
After Famoso earlier this year with the stock clutch I had to shift with both hands and bent the firewall out from pushing so hard -- and Tetge had to adjust the clutch every time we got together.
:idea: :nonono: What did I just say!!! Tetge adjusted my clutch every...

Isn't irwindale an 1/8th mile track? Sorry but for me it's that rush that the Cobra has in 3rd and 4th that really makes running it in the 1/4 such a pleasure. It just hunkers down and pulls like a MF all the way to the end of the 1/4. If the strip were a 3/8th mile, I'd bet that the Cobra would be a serious contender stock along with Vipers and Z06's. Rice would be parked for the most part as well as the ill handling short geared drag specific cars.
I totally agree Tetge.
I like Irwandale.
Get to learn how to lauch the Sucka since its the most import part of the deal.

I just have to go the full 1/4. 3rd and 4th rule!
Yah. And on the freeway, if the devil takes you and you shift back to third iit is possibly even more awesome since it is cooled down and making even more boost and HP than it does at the strip. Major, arrest me officer and take me to jail, rush. And, so far, no one has complained when I put the rush on them, not that they are anywhere around to complain.
Cool nights here in Downey can be fun. Hello 14 lbs of boost!
They're just fine on th freeway. And, they're just great for digging out of the hole in 1st and 2nd.

James,
6200-6300, I believe. I tried to pay attention to that on one of my good passes. That's with a 117 trap.

BTW James, if I'm not mistaken, you trapped 114 on your 12.362 run, and Brian trapped 109 on his 12.362 run. I think I clearly remember you only being a few mph behind me in trap, which we attributed to your slicks. And, with the troubles Brian had, he slowed significantly by the end of the track.
Crap thats high, my GSX is close to that.....I'll stick with the 3.73s
Capt4 --
We keep finding out about your car bit by bit... What other neat mods do you have in that hot Cobra? Yours is another car I would have liked to see run on the ET Streets.
The 6200 rpm in 4th sounds almost perfect, doesn't it?
