No, not bad at all..........................but he's still about 900lbs heavier!
I can't wait to see the battles that will no doubt come up in all the car mags between the new Viper and the new ZR1 Corvette. -Should be a terrific match up.
I agree with Rick though. It's very difficult to get these Cobra's into the 10's. Too many variables come into play (especially tires, suspension, and gearing in many cases). I had a friend that also had one of KC's monster 527 alum engines, only it was in a SPF. -Over 740HP!
He could only muster low 10's (I know......"only") but his trap speeds were near 140mph, which says he should have been in the 9's (his trap speeds also got him kicked off the track!). He was running on Yokohama street tires (15's), and had a lot of traction issues. I always wanted to know what he would do with some BFG Drag radials on the back...............but unfortunately he sold the car before I could find out.
