What a fun night! Althought I arrived late and didn't get to see some of the earlier runs, that was one of the best times I've had in a while.

All in all, I think it's clear that traction trumps hp on the strip, at least with our bunch of Cobras. Justa6, I was looking forward to seeing your car and watching it run, but I guess that's what I get for arriving late.

I'm already looking for some wider or stickier tires; however, going wider than 275/50s on 16" wheels is proving to be a challenge.

Although I think we were all disappointed with our times and speeds, compared to the other very stout street cars running that night (Roush Mustang, Saleen Mustang, Z06 Vette, Mitsu Evos, turbo or supercharged M3), we were significantly quicker and faster.

I'm looking forward to our next event - maybe a dyno day? Toy Collector, I think we're all looking forward to seeing what Parham's "masterbeast" will do.

BTW, John, thanks for posting pictures.
