let the air out of your tires to 25 p.s.i. cold and if you get out of the hole first you have a chance

dude....do it from a roll first, then see the result, if you beat him, which you should, then take him from a stand still....I dont think you'll have a problem if he's stock, i mean hell its not like they were that powerful.....

I guess I'll be the naysayer here, but unless you have the 6 speed, I don't think you have a chance unless the guy can't drive. A well driven 97 Cobra is capable of mid 13s. So unless your mods have knocked a full second off, I think the Cobra will get the W. Have you taken your car to the track? Knowing what kind of times your running would help me out because I don't know what each of your CLs run. Either way, race him and find out.

Bone stock I ran 13.7 in my 98 chief.

I can cut you a break as far as saying you beat a given car and driver on a given day, but these kind of statements are preposterous.

He SHOULD have a problem beating him, the 97 Cobra is a faster car...PERIOD. I ran faster bone stock in mine (13.7) than ANYONE has run in a CL on this board NA with bolt-ons.

CAN he beat him? Sure, if the guy is a fucking lame ass driver like you seem to match up with.

Haha... funniest post ever. Yeah, I'm starting to think that either some of the best drivers in the world post on this board, or they somehow manage to find some of the worst drivers ever every time they race.

330RWHP,

Wow, you do that with a 96 and no power adder? Sweet. I had a 95 GT Vert Auto and could beat up on the stock 96 5 speeds. You must have a lot in the motor. So I guess I shouldn't say how slow the 96-98 GTs were without qualifying it with STOCK 96-98 GTs.

He swapped in a DOHC, so it's no longer a turd.

Pull-T...i guess that makes you the BEST driver in the world????It seems you pull off better times than the magazine drivers who do it for a living. I guess you missed your calling....

go checkout corral.net or stangnet.com for some times... Pull_T is definitely on the higher end of the curve, but there are plenty of people who trap what he does...

um..i hate to be the guy who knocks down hopes but yeah you have an 01 auto, you're not winning. even a 6 speed has a slim chance of winning...sorry man but the stang guys are right on this one(and i'm a member of stangnet)
