Not Ranked
More than a little nitpicking going on here Ernie. The fact is, Thomas had a GForce T5 in this car rated at a little over 700 hp if memory serves me and he tore it up twice. Not to mention with these light cars, shifting comes fast and furious and is a real loss of time in the quarter mile if that is your purpose. The Lentech AOD eliminated all of those problems and helps him get a much more reliable and consistent launch.
Call it anything you want, but it is a very fast Cobra and still very streetable. Try that with the Harr Ford Dragonsnake or other purpose built drag cars. Just my 2 cent's worth.
On top of that, Thomas is one of the nicest and most unpretentious guys you'll every meet.
