That is very difficult to read (high school is your friend, friend), but I think what we can garner from this is that you are on drugs. No other excuse seems viable.
BTW...I don't currently own one, but my 04 Cobra went 12.6 @ 112 mph. 100% stock down to the filter, tires, and even the oil (I mention it because you seem like that type that would consider Mobil 1 a "mod").
My 99 T/A (no longer own it, either) went 12.89 @ 109 mph with very minor mods (many of them to the suspension). But it was no real competition for the Cobra.
What did YOUR car run 100% bone stock? What does it run now, and with what mods? Have you even been to a track? Or all your "kills" those elusive street races that we read so much about hear, that are typically based as much on imagination as they are on facts.
Oh...And there is no such thing as a "factory freak". There are, however, "internet freaks". For evidence, see this thread.

Yea dude dont forget, the verts are a lot heavier making it slower then a regular cobra. So after being slowed down its brought down to LS1 area...

i dont make shit up,went to school,and could care less that your dumb ass cant comprehend what was said
odessa,tx if anyone wants to come see what my car can do
weve already established the fact that i run them in the eighth mile and it is very possible to beat them when they dont have alot of time for that charger to come into play

Friend....that "charger" is a positive displacement blower. Its fairly obvious that you do not understand what that means, but it simple terms, it means that it makes power from near idle to redline. It comes "into play" essentially the moment you put a load on the motor.
And what does your car run again? 1/8th mile is fine.

no we are nowhere near stock now,but my buddy drove my car against my brothers cobra and was bumper to bumper with him the whole race until about a 100 where we all know a cobra will start pulling a little
so i dont think its a driver situation because it was pretty much the same race but my buddy just wasnt used to my car and couldnt jump on him like i did

switch cars then race and video tape, if everything is how you say it is, you should have nothing to hide and all the negative comment will stop

a stock ls1 cant beat a stock terminator... but ls1's do have the advantage of N/A cobras (which look exactly like the terminators, so if your confused i think we can all understand that). ist just that simple...

Let me state that again....regardless of what it might "seem" to you, they are equipped with a positive-displacement blower, that provides linear power delivery from just above idle all the way to redline. There is no big "jump" in power at a certain rpm that you might see with a big turbo or a centrifugal blower.
Your perception that they seem to be "top end cars" could be derived from the fact that 03/04 Cobras typically launch very poorly (on street tires), due to a number of issues (not the least of which is the excellent power they make at low rpm....due to that positive-displacement blower I keep talking about). For example, when my 04 went 12.60 @ 112 mph in bone stock trim on the original tires, it did so with a very poor 2.10 60 ft.
And again, what does your car run in the 1/8th mile?
