Default Raced a 97 Cobra

Young kid pulled up beside me a threw me a lil noise, I answered and from a 20 mph to about 80 I owned him (I wish we had more road but there was 11 pm traffic). From a dig I pulled him like a *****. It was stock, and not much quicker than a GT. He asked me if I was stock, I said, "almost".

I beat him in my 5700 pound 5 door Yuk. Denali on 22's w/radix, pulley, intake, exhaust, blah, blah blah

good run, yeah those cobra stock are dogs if it's a 96-98. the engine were made to rev way up their so those high gears really hurt them. you put 4.10 and you have a pretty quick car. good kill

That must be great!! Im hoping to be pretty quick once I can up my boost and get the LT's and maybe a cam My pops and I have a bet that I wont be able to see his tail lights in his C6. I told him I wont be too far behind. We'll see.
What other mods do you have (headers or cam)?? How much boost??

Bone stoke they run 14 flat in the 1/4. After a few mods and n2o I got my old one down to 12.7 in the 1/4.

i was half asleep watching some reruns of horsepower tv today and they were working on a 94 GT. i think it laid down 150 hp to the rear wheels. then they added some stuff and got it up to 200. i think that is pretty sad. then again, who knows what kinda dyno they are running, i don't.
