Fastest Cobra?
 
Fastest Cobra on the road:

or is it the Super Snake :eek: :

What do you think?

Weinick's Cobra could take off in 2nd gear and still beat the Super Snake in the 1/4 mile. No sweat.

Definitely, but in a straight line. :LOL:

From the BJ Auction, CS said on TV, that he'd had his twin turbo car to 190 MPH. And someone believed him? Maybe he meant KPH. No doubt the engine might have been capable, but the brick-like aerodynamics make it hard to swallow. Then there was the part about the buzzard...

Dick Smith had his car to 198mph, and it is not a claim but a fact. Same shape of car.

The Super Cobra has twice the power so I dont think it is impossible. Also, CS was a LOT younger when this car was built, so it is not just automatically an unbelievable tale that is beyond reason.
