I make around six and never ran that car in the quarter. That slomaro is lighter, does the whole power to weight ratio make any sense to you?
Feel free to PM me for more education if needed.

Sorry for high jacking your thread 6.0!

but really... I'd beat you go around saying I make 600rwhp and a car that makes 425rwhp does the same thing.. I would be sad that is a huge difference in power and no please tell me I had no idea abour power to weight ratio...

okay you said that you have 600rwhp and does weigh 3,800 power to weigh ratio is... 6.3 and you said you never ran in the 1/4.. well your 1/8 mile time would be close to your "mid six" 6.5(1/8) to 10.14 (1/4) but if it is close to 6.7(1/8)to 10.45(1/4) .....

and well a LS1 with 409rwhp... and well weight is between 3250-3300lbs... lets just say 3300lbs... the power to weight ratio would be 8.06.... so that would make you close to 2 more hp to weight... well a LS1 that has those number is running 10.811(1/4) at 122.67MPH... now that lets say that you did run the 6.7 in the 1/8... that would be a close really close race with driver error... and well like I already said the Cobra has more than enough power to weight ratio.... so please tell me why once agian that with 200rwhp more can't make any better times than what it does since the power to weight ratio would be close to 6.3(Cobra) to 8.06(Camaro)

The only driver error will be on your side sir.

The difference between a Terminator & a regular Cobra............WHAT!?!?!? Basically a 10lb Roots supercharger & a 6spd. & yes, SVT Cobras have independant front & rear suspensions. They're not talking about the old Shelby Cobras.
