Does this 1/4 mile time seem right?

[reduceallpain]

Whats up guys.. I have a 94 cobra which i ran at the track a week ago and ran a 13.93 at 100.20 mph with a 2.11 60ft.. For some reason the time seems too high for the car.. I've read on one site the quarter mile time for the 94 cobra was 14.3 and on another site it was 13.8 stock.. Here are my mods and you tell me what you think

Stock cobra 5.0 internals
BBK 65mm throttle body
BBK Cold air intake
BBK Shorty headers
Bassani mufflers
King cobra clutch :whip:
3.73 gears
M/T ET STREETS 275/40/17
Timing is at 14*


Car weight is 3404..

Sounds right to me...

knock that 60 foot down and you would be looking at mid 13s

Im having a hard time with the launch... Not exactly sure how to.. That run I bogged and then instantly hooked.... Running 15 pounds in the m/t's but dont know how i should take off

did you change the mid pipe? if not then that is definitely hurting you.

What RPM do you launch at?

I mean, with those tires you could probably launch at 4-5k and be gone if your rear/axles can handle it.

If your bogging then try launching a little higher


You can definately shave a couple tenths off that 60 foot.

Shouldn't you be close to 30*.IIRC my buddy's 96 cobra running 28* of timing .Did you have it dynotuned or have any kind of computer changes done.

I'd say your where you should be...that's a pretty good mph for what you have done to it.

Your problem is your launch. With MT ET Streets you should not be cutting 2.1s. You should get consistant 1.8's and 1.7's. I use those same tires and i have not seen 2.0+ since I got them. For your mods your where you should be for your times, you dont have any serious power mods but enough to knock you down into the mid 13's w/ some better 60' times.
