13.5@103 sounds about right to me.... but who ever drove the LS1 SS camaro to a 13.4@106 needs to learn how to drive!

That looks like a '99 cobra judging from the rear spoiler, (car at the top of the page). That seems like one of the better times I've ever seen on a '99 cobra...but its still a very possible time.
---Look closely at the cubic inch of the engine, (280ci vs 281ci)?????haha..
---VERY interesting 1/4 mile times on the other cars..(Here's one of many examples)
Merc E55: 13.39,106.06mph,3746lbs!,349hp,2.82's gears!

VS. Ferrari 355: 13.13,only 3 tenths quicker,107.56mph,& only 1.5 mph faster,but the car weights 2976lbs car,almost 800lbs lighter, 375hp, 25+hp, & has a 3.61's gears!!! [Confused]
