Mcfez, Evan was not at nerc so he may not know the whole story. I was not at run and gun but the 2 fastest road raced cobras were small blocks, again I was not there so I don't know the whole story. I have been to willow springs 3 times and road america twice. At road america the small blocks were way faster as a group then the big blocks, first hand info. Jeff, drag racers need hook up period, more important then the motor. On the street, in a light car with fuel injection, the small block is just as tractable as a carbed big block. Come to phoenix and you can drive mine. Bandit, You may have the fastest cobra in the world and if you could beat me down a straight on a race track once we hook up, I would be happy for you that your cobra is really fast and would tell everyone. But I am really, really curious as to how you ran 10.47 on street tires. I have drag raced a lot and know how hard it is to hook up street tires. Your friend may be a pro driver but it is still very hard to do. What was your mph? Now, if you are running a dot tire or slick, with all that power, 10.50's are likely. You would have beaten everybody else by at least a 1 second at run and gun. So, tell us how you and your buddy did it? I am replacing my bald bfg ta street tires so I want to know what to replace them with. If your tires can hook up a big block they can surely hook up my small block. I made one pass a year ago at the drag strip on the bfg's and was booted. 11.68 at 129mph, 2.3 60 ft. No traction till 80 mph, then full throttle. So, give us the facts. scott
