How badly would a cobra beat a stock Evo from a 60mph roll?

It depends on how many shifts the Cobra misses. Those bastids are fast as hell up top.

No. I dont know what a buschur stage 4 consists of. i dont follow stages, i just mod. Anywho if you have 350whp and above you should be pulling on cobra's from 60+ to i dont know maybe 130 until they will take over the top end debate.

cobra didn't pull that much at 30mph roll. weak sauce.

anyway, i guess the moderators are sleeping or something, this is still going on.

in that case, i was street racing these 6 different exotic cars, ferraris' and porsche, lambo... and I beat all of them going mach 5! on a 100 mph roll start!

It's a lot easier to go fast in a straight line than it is to go fast in an S pattern or a figure-8 or some other kind of shape. The handling alone on the Evo is enough to sell the car for most. Look how many people buy the Mini Cooper and when asked why they bought it they say "dude, this car handles so damn good...."

The fact that the Evo isn't designed to only go fast in a straight line, but it can still beat 99% of the cars made that ARE only designed to go fast in a straight line is a true testament to how great this car is. It's like the underdog beating last year's league champion on the champ's home turf. It's priceless.

i can't believe 90gsx is saying something sane, instead of blurring out some of his antics and bltching and moaning about something.

that's new.

I like it better when you're calm and sound minded, instead of nick picking everything people say in some sorta smart a way that you have.

I no longer live in Virginia. That was the root of most of my anger and rage. I'd just come on EvoM and take it out on unsuspecting people from time to time.

99% is clearly not accurate

How many Mustang GT's are made versus Cobras?

How many Z06's are versus regular Corvettes?

How many SS's are made versus Z28's? Wait, they aren't even made anymore.

Now, should we also include all the V6 crap out there for the Mustangs?

99% might have been a bit over the top, but it's called sarcasm. Deal with it.

When I drive a Mustang it feels like I'm driving a boat. .

That's my opinion anyway.
