Don't be that guy. That race was for pretty big money if I recall. I'm sure the guy could afford to lose a bet.And it was stock vs stock. I'd put money that the cobra would hold it's own against the 458 in braking and cornering too, especially for 50yo technology.

I'm not trying to be "that guy". I agree, he could probably afford to risk it and I figured they were stock to stock, just the fact that after the prep race they acknowledged there was a 8/10 of a second different but still raced head to head.
Unfair odds IMO.
But a bet is a bet.

I'm guessing the Ferrari owner was running his mouth.So... they did a straight head to head against 2 cars that were in 2 different time brackets?
Ferrari is mid 11s
Cobra is mid 10s
Lets line them up and well see which is faster...
Usually there is a head start for the slower car but the tree times down the same for both. Not fair and not surprised by the outcome. I hope the bet wasn't for money, if so the Ferrari got cheated.
I'd take the Cobra over the 458 any day.

I agree. Would be nice, but not worth the financial pains lol

A cobra will still give you a lot of financial pain, almost as much as the 'rari.

A true 427 Cobra is worth over a million.
A 2013 458 is only worth about $235,000

That may be true but it won't be taken out enough to have to do repairs all the time lol

The maintenance on a side oiler is minimal, just check valve lash and go beat on it. They are stout. The Ferrari on the other hand prefers spontaneous combustion over internal combustion.

Went to a monthly car show this morning called Coffee and Cars. It is pretty big and there is a little of everything (not always a good thing). Here are a few of the pictures I took.
This is my buddies Z06. It looks stock, but isn't under the hood. It has a cam, head work, FAST 102 intake, modified LS2 throttle body, tune, etc. I think it put down over 430 to the wheels when he had it tuned.
Magnum PI showed up
I guess the dog was the only one willing to get up at 6am and ride along
New Viper
The Porsche row
This is a stout TA. He runs a lot of giggle juice.
Anyone recognize this from Rocky 4?
Twin Turbo LS powerplant. He is still working on the cosmetics.
Chrome Wrap anyone?

Went to Flashlight Drags and took some pics.
The ratrod was just cool.
The Eclipse is my friend's car. He's run 10's several times, but has just done a few more things and is capable of 9's now
The Viper is twin turbo and total badass. It supposedly makes over 1500 hp
