Not Ranked
I think the Cobras do better mainly because of the front/rear weight bias as compared to the Mustangs on street tires...The Cobras are probably in 45/55 front/rear percentages as the Mustangs are closer to 60/40 fornt/rear,so we have a lot more weight over the front end than they do hurting rear traction...
Never ran slicks,but I'm thinking they would be good for another 4 tenths or more... I ran in the "street car" classes where slicks are not allowed and really didn't want to put the extra strain on the driveline as it is basically stock.
My car probably makes 325hp on a good day,going downhill with the wind, not a lot of power there, but I could get it to the ground.More power would just make it that much harder t o get off the line,but would help on the top end.When I built it, my original plans were to show it a lot and drive it very little, that all changed after a year or two and I began driving it a lot and am happy with the combo as it has good power and I get good gas mileage,allowing me to drive it a lot...
I wouldn't mind putting on a set of slicks one time just to see what it would run........
