Took a cobra to somewhat hang with a little 4 cylinder underpowered honda.

if youre bothered that a cr beat the cobra then put a gt vs a regular s2000 or a v6 mustang. cobras are a higher end mustang and cr is a "higher end" s2000. im sorry i honestly cant believe you think a mustang handles better.

No, it's the fact it took the "higher end" version of a car that was built to handle, to beat a the, lets call it the "handling package", version of a car that was never intended to handle well.

If that makes sense.

it doesnt cause THROUGHOUT this thread there are ravs about how the cobra 03-04 is setup to handle better so...

and i agree let a v6 mustang and ap1 or ap2 race to be more fair then against the cobra. a CR should be the least of your worries to unfair on saying "higher end" lol!

as of now the writing is on the wall so now we need to find more times on other tracks...


good find by the way!

And it handles amazing for a big, heavy muscle car. You can't argue that, with it being only 2 seconds behind the, and I quote "race ready S2000."

and i agree let a GT mustang and ap1 or ap2 race to be more fair then against the cobra. a CR should be the least of your worries to unfair on saying "higher end" lol!

The mustang GT and mustang cobra (99-04) are two different cars. Like I said, the cobra is the handling package of a car that wasn't really meant to handle good. So to take the GT and put it up against a S2000 isn't fair, straight line or "twisties."

I agree, finding more times for different tracks would be fair.

Thanks

The V6 Mustang isn't even a sports car.

[S2KJD]

not sure imho as depending on the track i think either way but i do like how both sides are so confident(more so the cobra fans) but yet no one is showing straight evidence of a s2k vs cobra actually going head to head lol!

and now we do! now there has to be more out there so let the #'s do the talking as i said back on page 2 :boobies:

fixed lol


Also - here's the large large difference.

Cobra isn't exactly meant to be a high revving engine, and they're torque monsters - so they have great bottom end. Especially with that Eaton supercharger. Also, it has a heavier nose ( 57/43 weight ratio ) whilst the S2000 has a 49/51 weight ratio. Paired with the torque band of the engine and how high they can rev, and S2000 will have a faster entry and exit speed in a corner than a Cobra.

It's unfair to state though without a course. If a course has any number of long straights, sooner or later the Cobra will catch up. That's just horsepower facts for you. If it's a ridiculously curvy course, the S2000 will rape it being that it'll be able to stay in its power band a lot easier.

In other words, this thread is fucking retarded.
