[philios55]

That Cobra to be able to keep up and even pass the CL65 AMG by rolling start must be something special!!!

I wouldn't say that it's THAT special, the Stang didn't get very far and the Merc was stock.

Still a cool vid to watch.

Stock...yes. But a 6.5 L. Biturbo V12 is extremely far from the usual "stock". :wink:
The vids aren't working for me. :cry:

Traction control really helped that Mercedes, cool vid. Surprised on the highway, but it's good to see a basic modded SVT stang(mid 400hp i assume) beat a supposedly fast expensive Merc.

Some perfomance stats I found about this SVT Cobra:
Power:About 513hp
Torque:500 lbs
1/4 mile:11.375@126 MPH
+bottle of nitro(100bhp)
1/4 mile:10.895@132 MPH

interesting, i suppose that sounds reasonable assuming that those numbers are rwhp/rwtq and the runs were done with no spray.

i have seen the video where treynor ran his stock SL65 to the tune of 11.7-11.8 so i would think that the CL would run similar times.

[Vansquish]

Could be...but I think the CL is quite a bit heavier even than the SL.

The Sept. '04 'car' mag. did an 11.8s @116 mph in a CL65 at Santa Pod (they ran it against an Ariel Atom).

So the high 10, low 11s time mentioned above for the stang makes sense.

Thanks :wink:

[is64fun]

still much faster than a 612 ps merg!

[DUNKiNUTS]

The SVT cobra is the king of drag racing for bang for the buck period!!!

[sentra_dude]

Cool vid, that CL65 really takes off out of the hole...I wasn't expecting the Cobra to pull so well on it, but when I saw the hp figures that makes sense.

Amazing what you can do with a Cobra and some spare cash. 8)

Holy shit that was a badass video thanks man!

[fireguy]
