The reality of it is anything over a 400 wheel HP in a 2400lb Cobra is going to beat the ZR1 to 100 mph.
...assuming it has the capability to put the power down. My experience, that's where most Cobras are lacking. I'm running M/T drag radials to help compensate with mine.

Actually, As the ZR1's RWHP tends to be around 565 @3300 lbs = 5.84lb per HP. The 2400lb, 400 rwhp Cobra is a staight up 6lbs per HP. That alone doesn't substantiate your claim...

The ZR1/Z06 DAs were terrific. The east coast tracks (especially around the DC area) have the notoriety for great DAs, hook and times. Admittedly, with most tracks those times won't be replicated. You always "brag" about your best run, never the mediocre ones.. The ZR1's 10.79 was run by one of our local boys. I don't care what the DAs are, that's pretty darn fast for a stock vehicle w/ OEM run flats..
