145+mph

[PANAVIA]

Tan - I think you are hitting an "air=wall" Aero-Dynamic issue at 145. --

145 is very respectable with a car that blows a .45-54 CD ratio.

( who has the drag coefficient numbers on the 427 bodies >? )

I failed physic test @ college, therefore I could not figure this out

I recalled my old Corvette can reach higher MPH then my Cobra.
Like what I said, I possible chicken out!!!

your old Corvette likely had an optimistic speedo.

The old Corvette has digital speedo meter, so likely more accurate then the analog on the Cobra. I may have passed the 150MPH threshold,but due to analog reading so it's hard to judge with large scale incremental.
