First time at the track for the cobra

97cobraNal · 02-22-2010, 06:39 PM

I finally went to get a baseline on this thing, before i really do anything to it. Still has the oem wires, i did however change the plugs jn it. Has a skip at idle, i figure it's the wires. You can feel it breaking up after 4500, so i figure the wires are breaking up. Next mods will be to replace the coils, wires, fuel filter, fuel pump and some mil eliminators.

Now to the slips

First one i launched at 2k and bogged down.

2.23
6.175
9.259@79.51

14.084@99.78

2nd pass i launched at 2.5k and missed 3rd

2.158
5.979
9.293@73.19

14.3@99.14

3rd pass i launched at 3k and spun alittle. I could feel it surging alot in 3rd on this run.

2.195
6.012
9.132@78

13.978@98.24

Like i said first time at the track for me with the cobra. Should get better and faster from here!

Looks good, you're showing progress. Your numbers would indicate to me running 13.3's.
