Drag race - stock 458 Italia versus 65 Shelby

Hi all. I've booked a drag race against a friend who owns a reconditioned 65 Shelby Cobra. In a sense I hope it's Ferrari's revenge -- the Cobra was designed in part to defeat Ferrari. The race is discussed here (Drag race - Kirkham 65 side-oiler vs Ferrari 458 italia) on a Cobra forum, where I was trying to learn about what I am up against. I'm grateful for all thoughts and advice from the Ferrari side. Many thanks, Tom
