i dunno on a track, on a dry hot day, and a set of slicks, and my bike race tuned (what i'm planning to do) i reckon your cobra would need new fangsits easy to beat a vehicle with turbo, due to turbo-lag, just get in front and stay there, easier on single carriageway roads here in the UK, trust me here i've had guys do it in little Peugeot 306's when on my uncles bike, i just follow them to a dual carriageway so they think "whys he following us?" then lean forwards onto the tank force the front end down and power off past them good fun
My car puts all 700 down on the street, and at the track it really hooks. I havent' found one street bike yet that can get me on race day or on the street. What's your best quarter-mile time? I don't really race on the street much anymore except for quick blasts. It's simply not safe to open up that much power on public and unprepped roads.

***The images below are representations of the vehicles my family own. I don't take credit for them.***
Jankees,
I also drive around in a Subaru Outback. Wouldn't buy anything else really. 3 litre, 6 cylinder boxer engine, has plenty of grunt for when I need it... quite suprising for a 'family' car..lol.
(Especially when you hear your 7 year old in the back go 'weeeeee, do that again')
Other cars on the property (not mine though..
) are
a 1927 Ford T-Model hot rod
a mid 80's Jaguar XJS kitted out for drag racing which I don't have a photo for.
a Ford Falcon XR8 ute
a modified Ford Falcon GT (something like this, but in blue)
and the mother in law toodles about in a Mercedes GL320.
Needless to say, most of the cars are my future father-in-laws..lol.

No sports cars?
Well, sort of -
Not as quick as big bikes but carries four and could give a Cobra a run for its money on UK roads, no wurries!

I bought this new 24 years ago. A certain mate from the U.K. came to Fla. one year and drove it. Didn't think I was going to get him out of it!

Just been at a near garage, where they did a world record in test driving, they did about 1500 test drives. Took 4 cars out, VW Passat Blue Motion, was quite nice, doesn´t need too much gas for an estate car. Great for a car to really use without being to expensive in running costs. 2nd was a VW Golf VI (Rabbit in USA), TSI (Turbo-Supercharged), 1.4l engine, 170hp, automatic, was pretty good stopping and accelerating to 60 mph, great fun. Used more than 50 liters per 100 kilometers though (would be 4.7 mpg :d), wouldn´t drive one of those every day, but pretty funny.
3rd was an Audi A4 Estate, automatic, accelerated quite good, got to about 105 mph on a little more than a mile straight from standing. Best one was the last one, A4 S-Line, Gas-engine, turbocharged, took it throught some steep turns over a near hill, amazing, great handling, hand shift, was hard to pay at least a little attention to those speed limits....
All in all, a great day, they should do those kind of things more often. Only bad was that they didn´t have an R8 for test drive.....:d
