Shelby Cobra Burn out through 3rd gear

[gstilley66]

Greetings..again! I just purchased my COBRA from Back Draft Racing. 427 Roush Fuel Injected engine. Stay tuned for upcoming videos ...

[gstilley66]

Greetings:

The video is most excellent. Who cares if there is "wheel hop"?

[jhamilton07]

@dalotel FFR Cobras are far from primitive. They're the most advanced racing chassis designs produced in a while. High horse power with an independant rear suspention and sticky tires will cause wheel hop. FFR recommends the 3 link suspention for exactly that reason. Due to their extremely light weight, reports of fuel mileage are very favorable as well. Since it's a kit, if your donor car has abs and traction control, so can your Cobra. It's the builder's choice.

[jhamilton07]

@dalotel Calm down. Choosing the wrong set up for the application isnt primative, it's just an error on the part of the builder. Why do you consider independant suspension primitive since ZR-1's also have it? I guess the auto adjusting shocks over come that? . To build, you need to read some. Simply checking a page before lashing out will keep the egg off your face. Yeah, I read. Then I build. Then I drive. Or is this just a chance to announce to the world that you own a ZR-1?

[dalotel]

@jhamilton07 Does it sting I have a better car? I deleted my comments because I'm not here to listen to your nonsense or reply to any of it. Go build your junk, have a nice day. I'm going for a ride instead.

[jhamilton07]

@dalotel judging by the fact that you have zero videos on your page I would guess that commenting is exactly the reason you are here. I have no doubt you have what you claim you have but only because you exactly fit the profile of every Vette owner I've ever met. I've built, worked on and driven over 5,000 cars during my tenure of doing it professionally. Corvettes don't impress me, so I wouldn't call it better. I'll take my primitive junk over your plastic Barbie car any day. Had a nice ride.

[trdidion]

Hey little cobra don't you know you're gonna shut em down

[madde78273]

I feel like i can smell it

[MrPatschn]

I better like the Weineck Cobra with about 1600 Hp

[dutchcarshots]

NICE burnout!!

[Ajacques8000]

cant shift to save his life!

[ewhusky99]

If only I was rich, I too would own one.

[mite53]

very nice! but pretty bad wheel hop though...

[freezdeez]

better do something about that wheel hop or sayy by by to axals

[novanastalga]

ok so why do you not have traction bars? are trying to snap your drive shaft with wheel hop?

[yyargghhh]

@mikee8100 if you don't have fear driving this car then your not pushing it to the limit ;)

[darkeyce02]

what kind of torque does it have... i like how through 3rd it lesves marks but no smoke

[dzynone]

everyones an expert, lol. Just watch the damn video and move on.

[BennyBallbreaker]

Holy fuck wheel hop.

[JustinCase10261]

how long did it take for you to total the car?

[Powerstroke380]

looks like the ol girl wants some traction bars for chrismas

[woodchuck2222]

I suppose some of you would never do a burn out with one of these and just choose to cruise the mall parking lot with it. Even Carroll himself enjoyed doing burnouts with his.

[robsta289]

If this were my car, I would wear brown underwear every time I took it out. lol

Nice Burnout!

[matthewrockslol22]

you know its fast when you need shoulder straps..

[FreakyKing2]

You know when something is so badass you just start laughing......I'm laughing my ass off right now

[HannahBobz]

he needz ta let me show him how ta drive it...;-)

[hammer555551]

Hey Pencil-neck do you feel tough now that you burned-out??? What a geek!!

[taystew]

@hammer555551 LOL!

[tabcobra]

Maybe it's the type of pavement...I also have a Cobra like yours, but with a 501ci bigblock that puts 550 hp to the wheels. I run Nitto 555r's. Oh, nice looking car. I thought maybe you had BFG's or somrthing.

[tabcobra]

Cheap tires....dangerious too.

[rogerver]

@tabcobra They are $200 each Mickey Thompson ET DRAG tires.  They are special for racing and can only last around two thousand miles of driving around on the street. (without doing burnouts like that)

[taystew]

@rogerver they are designed to achieve optimal traction under low tire pressure and preheat conditions. its cool that you drive like a jackass and all, but you havent done anything very impressive in this video. in fact im a little happy seeing that wheel hop ALL the way through first gear, brings back memories of fastnthefurious era civics and eclipses all over town

[LorenzoB16]

@rogerver God thats a steal, I want a pair.

[hootblah]

@rogerver you had some crazy wheel hop

[aaronzack14]

@tabcobra idiot

[lorenzolb]

Shaking snake ^^

[Bersaggynuts]

Its easier with super tall gears... Which I imagine are in this car seeing that demo.. Understand itsa bad ride now, but thats how Mr. McQueen laid down a stripe in Bullet.. Super ultra mega tall high hears....

[devilselbow]

@Bersaggynuts Easier with short gears you mean. Tall gears take more power to break the tires loose.

[topdog25608]

He did that with a 408 windsor small block. Think what it would do with a big block built up to the same degree.

[TerryMMA85]

to do stuff like that or even drive it around you need a well made kit car the originals need to be stored away too much money and history

[MrCstricklin]

i'm pretty sure most people who own a true cobra wouldn't be doing this. Who cares if its a kit. Most have the same performance if not better and they are affordable.

[CombatRationPacks]

@MrCstricklin after 45 years there'd be something wrong if the kit didn't handle better, but i get your point, its still the same car and it gives the same emotions as an original ;)

[IXGQ4LifeXI]

Wow with that weight and HP that thing must be a rocket..

[luked1964]

rear axle is crying.

[19651999mustang]

wheel hop like a mother fucker lol

[ubernoob77]

@19651999mustang never seen wheel hop that bad ever

[gobegt]

♥♥♥

[sdeanmusic]

[suprafanatic1984]

Wheel hop much? lol

[g36m0]

looks like one wrong move and the car is gonna go spinning out

[paulrondeau]

[GROUTEPRO]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOW THATS WHY I LOVE SHELBYSS!!!!!! LOL

[byronbja]

i hope you got traction bars on it now lol

[TheRotaryman]

holy shit thats some power. why so much wheel hop in 1st tho?

[ianuk1975]

some pretty bad wheel hop going on in 1st gear there. Awesome though :)

[suprbird]

408w in a cobra...i think thats my dream car right there hahaha

[Alexela56]

nice

[vary55]

nice sound!!!!!!

[iBEaSTEYY17]

amazing! V8 All day Every day!

[triplethreatvette]

can you say wheel hop?

[kirk0respite]

pown

[TheOneFromMW2]

this is an AC Cobra or Shelby? :S

[tonyf686]

@TheOneFromMW2 factory five racing 

[thepunisher1212]

I love it, notice at about 0:16 he lays another mark about 50 feet long in probably 3rd gear. NICE!!!

[dingleberrytreat]

@thepunisher1212 That's what the description says captain obvious!

[mikee8100]

you know your a real man if you don't shit your pants driving one of these

[tomkkkkk]

@mikee8100 id aggree.... There are plenty of crazy settups out there from all makes. Id say 500hp+ cars your a man lol

[dirtshower250]

@mikee8100 yea my dads best friend has one and he can spin it in 5th going 60 and they hit 180 on the express way

[victoryred2010]

@dirtshower250 Dude, i gotta tell you, that a true factory 427 AC Shelby Cobra, only has 4 gears, so I'd have to call bullshit on that one, unless its a kitcar, but thats still nowhere near a true Shelby Cobra.

[dirtshower250]

@victoryred2010 yep its a kit

[genmaxpain]

@mikee8100 even real men cant handle 1 of these beasts bill cosby gave it back to carroll shelby as it was toooo much power for him and the next owner of the rare twin paxton superchargerd 427 cobra crashed it . even Mr shelby himself was a bit afraid of the beast he made for bill cosby

[puresports101]

@mikee8100 no a real man can handle beening behind 20,000hp dragster come talk to me when you get to that level

[pyroace123]

@puresports101 Whats your name and what car do you drive?

[twoshort15]

@puresports101 please tell me what kind of dragster is 20,000 hp because im calling bullshit on your ass

[IXGQ4LifeXI]

@twoshort15 Dragster Cruise Liner LoL

[IXGQ4LifeXI]

@puresports101 I think you mean 2000HP.. cuz even top fuel dragsters are about 8000HP

[mortemdrummer]

@mikee8100

damn.

[TheZohaun]

@mikee8100 Either that or a man who almost shits his pants but is afraid the cobra god's will kill you if you ruined your pants while in one

[TheRguru1]

@mikee8100 dat's probably cuz this car's got dis massive 10.8 litre V8, biggest engine ive ever heard of in a fuckin car!

[jordtizzle]

@TheRguru1 408 is roughly 6.7l

[TheRguru1]

@jordtizzle yeah, that was just some bad memory, sometimes i dont remember things properly

[suprbird]

thats nuts

[alwayssshere]

mean wheel hop....
