Driving at 100 mph +

[Jahred]

Cobra 428..........Man do I hear ya.......it is amazing how different two cars can be.

I have an old 87 944 Turbo, chipped. That little 150 CI will wind to about 6800 RPM and about the time you hit 100 the car sits down and starts to breathe..... you know it wants to see the other end of the 165 Speedometer, and mine has been there at least a time or two.........

I have had a 514 on the road for about a year. I am still amazed at the difference. They are both loads of fun, but at 100 - 120 MPH under throttle in 3rd or 4th, you feel like the world is about to end in the cobra......it is louder than hell itself, it snarls....sounds like it wants to bite somebody and I am never sure if the front wheels are really on the ground cause the big cat is pretty well up on its haunches with 650 lbs of torque helping plant the rear wheels to the ground.........I must say traction is great for a little buggy with that kind of horsepower..........but I do wish 150 or better fealt as safe in the cobra.........have alot of work to do before i ever try to see that speed.........
