I ran my full floating, pink rod internally balanced, NA, BBC, 468ci, to 7600rpm 10.00 @135 3,400lb camaro every weekend for two seasons without any problems.

The Cobra easily wins one race with PROPER TRACTION and a patient driver with some track time, based on what the KC engine can produce. Right now the cobra driver does not even know if his cars rear tires will bite evenly. Who is tuning the rear suspension for him?? (there is no time factored in for it). While the tires are spinning ( because they will, unless he is very very patient) the rear very well could slide left or right.
I see alot of problems here with a high horsepower Cobra and NOTHING being checked prior to a full launch practice session. Could be dangerous also.

I don't know if BLITZ has the full picture of this if he is running this car on the edge like he should but probably wont be able too.

Good point about taking the WIN light vs ET. We may have the faster car lose the bet
