The Power is there - 360 rwhp would be easily enough for 180 mph, but the downforce is simply not there for a stable run. Cobra R front air dam and rear wing might be a good idea for high speed runs.

To go 155 or faster on public roads seems insane at best. But, if you really don't like the car or yourself please take either out without hurting others. Besides as the total number of Cobra's drops the price for existing examples goes up... _____________________________ 2003 Cobra Vert Oxford w/Parchment Top 1 of 130 #582 of 5082 (in reply to OICW) Post #: 22

Whipple whould have that covered...... I am sure it has already topped that but I did not have a GPS unit in the car to confirm. http://www.pb1302.com/Videos/178%20cobra.MPG http://www.pb1302.com/videos/Fly_by%20178.avi < Message edited by pb1302 -- 7/29/2007 6:36:11 AM > _____________________________ 178 MPH Beast - See you in my rear view mirror...
