thanks, havent seen that video.... haha

no offense to that cobra driver but
1- he sucks at driving
2- he has no traction
3- he loses when he should have easily walked away
4- E55 > Cobra!!!

This is coming from a "rustang" owner too. This is one outcome, races all depend on the car, the conditions, etc etc.

I love it

It's nice to see a 4 door grocery getter take on a Pony car and destroy it not once, not twice, but three times in a row

Thanks for the video,

Hey After The 123rd Time Watching This Over The Past Year...watch The Last Match..when They Come By..they Are Just About Dead Even...you Gotta Screw With Your Video Player To Stop When They Are Dead In Front Of You...but It Sure Looks Like That Last One Was A Draw. If You Watch It Real Time, It Looks Like The Benz Is A Car Length In Front, But I Think That One Was Too Close To Call.

e55 > cobra

with that said, the cobra with those mods in the hands of a good driver would win 9 times out of 10 against a w211 e55.
