IROC-Z vs. COBRA

a friend of mine has a 95 rustang cobra 5.0. we've been wanting to take them to the track, but hasn't happened yet. his best run so far is like 9.1x 1/8th mile times, but sometimes its even higher like 9.5x, i haven't had mine there yet since the rebuild, and the previous owner NEVER ran it off the hose, was running 7.40s on 175hp shot of gogo juice. you guys think i can take em or what. oh yeah his car is all stock except the exhaust.

Hard to say. The 5.0 cobras are fairly quick delivering low 14/high 13 second 1/4 mile times.

Only one way to find out...just have fun with it.
