BTW i'm a former mustang guy as well.
My first car was an '89 5.0, then i bought a '97 Cobra that I built up and put down 550rwhp and ran 10.80's, then i sold that and bought an '04 Cobra that ran 12.8 stock.
I've also had a '94 and an '02 Lightning. And i currently own a '98 SVT Contour.

I don't know why everyone is talking sh*t about the Mustangs. I had a 94 and then a 97 Cobra which I still have, that stock could take out stock Zs, S/Ced kept a Murci in within a few car lengths. I can honestly say that I would trade my car for a new Shelby GT500 or the even newer Shelby GT500 RS or w/e they're calling it. The new Shelby's can handle well and put down 600+ to the wheels for about 6Grand, via Kenne Bell.

ok well maybe not sh*t talking but making the guy's old Cobra seem like a hunk of junk. While they aren't the nicest cars, they are great at what they are made to do.
Worst thing about them is that they have a hill billy conotation.

I debated on whether or not to chime in on this thread but I figured what the hell.
A car with 550-600hp is not going to down right beat a 1000 gsxr. It doesnt matter whether its from a dig or on a roll(ESP on a roll)
Not to mention the cobras (while they are rather beefy) Do not have the gearing nor the simple pull past 130-140mph to hang with a liter bike which is revved to 13k+ at those speeds and getting ready to shift again.\
As someone previously stated, the bike was a piece of ****, or the rider was a moron with no experience at riding, or youre simply full of ****. You cant claim to wax a 1k in a mustang with 550rwhp without proof on the internet.

If you put 6k into a Shelby you better be well into the 800whp range. 600whp is nothing for those cars. Approx. 2k for 600whp, not 6k.
ANDITO, what's your mod list and was the 550whp on the bottle?
10.92 1/4 is a hell of a time. You must be running the ***** off the car.
For all you Z guys, what's the skid pad rating on the "new" Z?
