Not much to be worried about. My boy ran 13.6x in his with an offroad H and a catback. 379 rwhp? He's smoking crack

The 99 Cobra I raced on Sat. said he ran 13.4 bone stock. Don't know if there's a difference between 98 and 99.

Not much of one. In fact the Cobra isn't really all that scary until you see the 2003 Cobra. That sucker is powerfull.

279rwHP i can beleive...but not 379 without a power adder.



Actually, if it was an '03 Cobra i could beleive that number. Guy at our club meet yesterday has an '03 cobra he bought 3 weeks ago. Already went to the track and ran 12.9 stock with it. Gotta love it!
