My money's on the Cobra. That GT has got to be a slug off the line with those mods. Sounds like he's done everything he can to kill low end torque so he's not going to get the jump on him out of the hole. And once the Cobra gets the rev's up it's over.

But then again I've lost to cars with less power before since I can't drive for $h!t.

I think the GT from a stop and the Cobra from a roll, either way the winner will come down to the driver.

I'd rather have a 94 Cobra than a 99 though.

Thats interesting...im not calling u a lier at all i just find it strange. I kick the shit out of 99+ gt's and cobras all the time (except 03 cobra's). The only time i have probs with the cobras is when i change gears from 3rd to 4th then they start to pull. When i had my nitrous it wasnt a prob but without some kind of power adder i dont think u can hang after 3rd gear.

It comes down to the driver, really, but I think that the 98 Cobra should and will probably win...
