Ive driven Marks Cobra several times and its a very well developed piece of kit.
Its not supercharged or a NASCAR engine like some are dribbling about , but a very well bred 4999 cc Alloy small block and heads and an awesome gearbox setup. Nothing could get near it at the 4th July day at the Lake last weekend. Mark was at McLean's Bridge and ran against the BDM Car and left it choking on fumes.
I race at all the Qld tracks and also crew for Mark fairly regularly , i don't see many of u guys out there at many of the 26 events we do each season !!!!. LOL
I wonder which BDM car it left choking on its fumes?
Was it the one that weighs 1200kg, has 570 rwhp and a sequential Hollinger..... or the one that weighs 900kg, has 460 rwhp and a regular 6 speed.......
Or was it the registered blue/white BDM that has a standard LS1 under the hood....
Considering it's an RMC and weighs in the vicinity of 1300kg.... then it must have about 700hp if it smoked one of the black ones....... Quite a stout 302 indeed! Considering the same size V8 supercar engines make 650hp then this must be a piece of work.
I wonder if it has ever done any racing longer than a hill climb? Maybe there would be some lap times registered somewhere...
Just had a look at some Hill Climb results and he runs around the same time as a mate of mine, Scott Trenoweth in a series 2 Rx7...... that would not make it the fastest Cobra in QLD......
Anyways, I hope he brings it out to play with the others some day.
