A friend of mine let me take a run in his ZR1, yeah he's lost his mind but any way, when I down shifted to 3rd at about 80mph then run up to the rev limiter it was so fast it was hard to hang on to. It ran up to about 160 so fast it would make your head spin! I know our cobra's are fast but that car is fast with really good manners!

Default AC Gullwing

I believe the cobra from the uk in the video posted is the new AC Ace Gullwing cobra. They are using corvette engines in these cars. check out the below link.

My mildly modded C6 ZO6 is lighter than a ZR1, so it has about the same hp/wt ratio. My Cobra (370 rwhp, 2350 lbs) launches faster than the Z, but the Z buries it from higher speeds! The Z from 80-160 is amazing. After that 5th and 6th gear are too high.

That'll all change completely when I get my engine back from the Clayton's next week!!!! Then I'll need some better tires and diapers......
