Instead of answering my question, which was "Just how handicapped do you think the 2008 Cobra Jets are?" Gump tried to shift the load to me, by asking "Maybe you should give your oppinion on what the Cobra Jet HP should be?"

Nobody cares what ~I~ think, Gump.... My opinion means nothing. ~I~ haven't seen a dyno test of these cars.

My point is NEITHER HAS NHRA!!!! Ford suggests a figure (425) that they pulled out of a cocked hat and NHRA buys it like it was set in stone... with no proof of any kind.

Then, at Pomona,one of the cars runs a 10.0 at only 112 mph.... and weighs in at 3700 pounds

I don't know about you, but that sounds like a sandbagging run from a car that has a LOT MORE than 425 hp....

It's not up to me to determine a HP figure for these cars, but that doesn't mean that I'm blind to their potential.

I just don't think that 425 is anywhere near their capability. Do you?
