    Blast from the past?

    We know the Cobra is faster, we've decided that, only ricers think otherwise.

    I don't think it's the car that can't handle the power.

    This question is totally and entirely impossible to answer. An S2k will mongoose the Cobra around an AutoX track. The Cobra will smoke the S2k at Road Atlanta.

    Cobra = IRS + control arms + strut/springs + full K-member and A-arms = one fucking hell of a corner carver!

    Plus more power, better looks and cheaper insurance than a s2k.

    Cobra.........

    But on the one hand if the Cobra even Corbra R is such a dominating car why don't you see them do any time attack series?

    cobra r is a purpose built track car. but on the same note where talking in general terms, if someone had $100-200k to build a track car, then yeah cobra and s2k are not even in the running!

    Because domestics arent as marketable to the young tuner crowd. Not yet anyways. You still see Cobalts and other pocket racers, but generally speaking, the import crowds hate Mustangs even though they would dominate a lot of the actual events they compete in. In my opinion... what do I know though...

    Time Attacks and Gymkhana's could see a rise in domestics though I think and it would be refreshing to see something other than the typical EVO/WRX/S2K's out there.

    If you're serious about Mustang Road Racing... Griggs Racing and Agent 47 are the go to people. Whenever I have the money, Griggs will be building up my suspension.

    from my understanding, the price and rarity of the Cobra R kind of hamper it's trips to Time Attack series. The only Cobra R that I know the whereabouts of, it just sits in a garage... had a layer of dust on it last time I saw it.

    That looks like an old Bondurant school car.

    As for Mustangs in time attack, you don't see them because time attack is for ricers, time trials is the same thing but less JDM of a name, Mustangs run there as well as numerous road race classes. There are classes even FOR Mustangs.

    The stupidity in this thread amazes me.

    I don't know how it all works but, a car tuner can buy a 40k+ NSX they can defenitely afford this. But, I agree with Nemesis about appealing to the younger tuner crowd.

    It's cause HONDUH is the best.

    Honda + VTEC + RWD = S2K = Supercar

    Well I know I voted S2K, because it says which HANDLES better, the S2K is nimble, tiny, solid, it HANDLES better.

    However I am on the Cobras side for anything else around a track or whatever else.

    So is an MR2, but are you really telling me that you would have voted the same way if that were an option?

    Just kidding.

    Mustang attitude? Yes, tons of cocky Mustang owners, same for BMW, same for Camaros, same for Supras, same for...oh yeah, all car makes. Look at Honda owners, not only are they cocky they have nothing to be cocky about.
