Whats up Guys, Just trying to see if anyone out there are drag racing their convertible 03/04 CObra's and what times are they getting... i raced my convertible about 2 months back and went 7.29 @ 98 on a 1/8th with a slipping clutch, since then i installed a DFX from center force, i have a 2.3 whipple running a 2.75 / 4 pound lower combo, car made 671rwhp std , i thinks that puts it around 640rwhp sae or so... just trying to compare to other convertible cobra's out there, thanks....:beerchug:

The Dynospeed boys have a real fast White Cobra. I think it ran low 10's.

A guy in our club, Carlos, has a Silver KB car that went 10.60's. 6 spped/IRS.

On my 3.25 upper and 2# lower whipple this car screams, havent lost on the street yet, track times coming soon. And my color is by far the fastest lol. Team difeo makes awesome builds that run strong and perform.:welcome:

well i have used 2 different sets, first i had hoosier 28x10 , then i tried M/T et streets
they are 27x10.5 both on 16 inch rims but didnt really like the m/t's i noticed they tend to walk more then the hoosiers on the big end... but i know Drag radials dont have that problem

There are a few fast vert's around... you just have to kick over some rocks to find their hiding place :wink:

I've been trying to make the bid at being the fastest 6 speed/IRS/twin screw convertible in the country for about three years now... but haven't had any sucess towards that goal in recent times. The fastest my car went back in March of 05 was 7.03 @ 102 on 275/40-17 MT Street Radials on 17 psi with a 2.3L. Since then I've upgraded a bunch of stuff except for the stock motor... last time at the track in January was a dissapointing best of 7.48 @ 101 on 335 Hoosier DR's with a 1.85 60 foot time.
Maybe this fall I'll get the monkey off my back and run some decent times in my car at last.

The white Dynospeed built car went low 10's/high 9's with an auto and a SRA and nitrous... he's since switched over to a centri set-up to run in the Renegade class IIRC. The orange car owned by Boyd went into the 9's as well with a 2.3L on the 6 speed/IRS... but his motor was fully built and he had nitrous on that pass as well.

My vert doesn't do to bad for a stock IRS, 6 speed, Eaton and a litle spray.
I'm #7096.

you're car is flying man 7.0 with only 17 psi... quick question how much power did you're car make on the 17 psi? i know my car only went 7.20 cause of the bad clutch even the mph was low too @ 97-98, well man if you have any tips i would really apreciate the help.. :beerchug:
