Default Ford cobra runs 11.9 with brakes on!!

I don't know if he is reading this but congrats to my bro inlaw and his mate who ran an 11.9 in their shelby cobra replica on the 9/1/08 at wsid. The car has no roll cage and they have no intention of doing so.This resulted with the driver hiiting the brakes well before the finish line to avoid having to get a cage due to the fact it has no roof!!

Not that one mate.But a few of their club went together. I promised I won't single the car because its their preference and I respect that. Let just say it is a 347 and it is not forced induction.That thing is an animal!! Its nickname is billycart with wheels and v8 :P
