Great car video over at SVT, automatic, 20 inch rims, 3.73 gears, and full weight takes out a 03 cobra @11.28 in the 1/4. Awesome.........

Does it really matter that it has 20s? I mean, other than the weight, if you maintain the same ratio as stock (same heigth), there's no difference in performace (aside from the weight like I said).

Wouldn't that be.... a difference in performance?!?!?
Yeah..it would.

20s are not exactly light, or something people use at the TRACK!
ahahah thats what makes it so funny...

Put wide rubber on a lighter/smaller rim... and that car will be quicker...

Reading the site, its funny how guys are defending the cobra..saying it was a bad driver etc.
Yeah..cause ALL cobra's hit low 11s easily....

They are just scared :P

and they 'rolled it out'
hahaha

Thing is a force of nature ...
The cobra driver got a good time too for the minimal mods he had, but he probably looked over and saw that and thought 'no @#%n way'

Go Lidio

And with wheels its not just extra dead weight on the car, its ROTATIONAL weight, as the car has to work to SPIN those bad boys......
