I am not sure what the hoopula on the transmission is about here.

I have been watching this cobra develop over the last couple of years and think it is facinating. As fast as it is I think it has plenty more to give. Like a second or more with slicks and such. How many 9 second cars drive to the track and then drive home?

The video is cool but it was way more cool first hand. A rocket ship.

I am an old school gear banger but I will gladly get spanked by this automatic cobra any day of the week.

Allen- just a friendly note about your video. Why,........do people dub in music when the real music comes from the exhaust ? Personally, I hate this method of taping if you have a running,... engine.

After viewing it for 10 seconds, I clicked off. You're a great guy with a fantastic car but please, stay with the engine as music to all of our ears.
Absolute no disrespect.

Have a great day.

Kevin

That twin turbo replica is cool stuff. The car trapped 137 mph!!! I give it the thumbs up all the way and think it's really cool to see a Cobra putting down the law at the strip. It's also priceless to see the owner excited about his creation?

My guess is original 427 Cobras available to the consumer might have been 12 to 13 second cars with 110 to 115 mph trap speed on a good day, auto trans or manual.
