460hp Cobra vs 580hp Cobravs 400 hp Saleen
Last week I had the pleasure of meeting up with a man with a passion for horsepower and a love for mustangs. He had 2 amazing cars in his stable. A black 04 Cobra with a 2.2 Kenne Belle blower pushing out upwards of 580hp, and a 2000 Saleen with a factory blown 400hp engine.
My friend and I met up with this enthusiast at his house. Really cool guy and We decided to take the cars out to see how they would do in combat. My friend drove the Saleen, the owner commandeered the Kenne Belle Cobra and I drove my trusty White Cobra.
Race 1: So as soon as we get a chance, we decide to to line them up. First the Saleen lines up with my white cobra, and go from a 60mph roll. Running from 3rd gear, the cobra instantly takes the lead and starts putting some distance between it and the saleen. Win for the White Cobra.
Race 2: The KB Cobra decides to see how he would do with the Saleen. This was a no contest. The Cobra walks on the Saleen like there was no tomorrow.
Race 3: The most interesting race was my White Cobra vs the Black Cobra. Now this was not as easy as the Saleen but the Black Cobra won nonetheless. Starting from 60mph to 130mph the Black Cobra had put about 10 Car lengths on me.
Great race and good times. Here is a snapshot.
