:needpics:Evening time and Getting off the interstate are couple of old friends. Buddy in his new yellow Cobra:monkey: and another dark blue 00' cobra. I pull in next to them near the BK lot and spot a new face in a COMP T/A!(hooker lt cat, 3:73 We bs trade#'s and I tell them I want a Dig run. They laugh at me;) but we make the 3 mile trip to a nice 6mile long strait.
We line up, me and comp boy 1st. Arms up Down and Gtech records 4.8 to 60, each shift leaves him falling off early. AT 130 he almost starts comming at 140 hes -1. solid car back. KILL! Make my way back slow at this point im to excited to race the cobra
But he wants quick run anyway, So Lined up, Arms up Down and i Take the hit Gtech records a 4.8, He spun and near 80 hes about 3 cars back I powershift 4th at 6200 and hes on the move, I see 105 and I brake quick just as i see hes near my door KILL!. He wants a rolling run But I call it quits. I cancel plans and call it a good tuesday... Cobra was catx Borla catback stock pulley. I was Very pleased to say the Least.........

Sorry boss, but if your car is bone stock they clearly don't know how to drive their cars.

Yea didnt mean to be nasty Just went for a smoke.. No lie Dont know what to tell you but i dont come on here to make fake stories dude you got the wrong guy. Cobra had some issues fair or not but i killed it at the 1/4mi unless i trap near 111 and i now run with 3inSLPcatback. but i keep it the same. comp runs just the same as all other ws6 IM NOT YOUR BULLSHTR

You realize cobras put down 360+rwhp STOCK right?
Your numbers are not impressive. You beat the driver not the car.

OP, why would you race to 140? is there really a need? And instead of the "quick brake" why not just take the loss honorably...
So one race you race to 140 and the next you brake at 105 because thats what you think you would trap in the 1/4. That just doesn't make sense to me. Was the comp t/a beating you at 105 so you just kept speeding on after he let off, then he tried playing catch up again? Thats kind of what it seems like here.

Damn Huff you beat me to it.
I like how he went to 140 against the T/A cause he was still winning, but then against the cobra it was pullin back to his door so he slams the brakes at 105 and says KILL!! HAHAHAHA

Yeah I still think that the Comp was prolly beating him at 105 so he waited for him to hit the brakes and did a fly by, but we'll never know... lol.
If the stories are in fact "true" I apologize and you must have gotten one hell of a factory freak ws6.

And yes, it would also eat the lt1

Man some you guys just cant except it. Bunch of crybabies.. Im sure you sulk at the thought you couldnt touch even a newbie in a cobra..but that was not my case and not my fault. Obviously theres no point racing a cobra to 130, I wanted to race the driver in 1/4mi Dual(shutdown near 108). He wanted to run quick and I wanted to shut down quick, childish yes but im sure i wrecked his day.
I raced the comp up to about 140 because thats how long it took him to get back to me and 140FastEnough. So now that its all cleared up, go ahead and make more excuses

Lol if youre in florida I'm sure I can find some of my friend's with cobras to show you.
And don't talk all high and mighty like your car is all there is. You're barely a bolt on car.
Once again you beat the driver not the car. Participating in a simple roll race like was asked of you would have shown you that.

Yes, because we all lose sleep over reading this thread...
Knowing that somewhere, somehow, someone cant drive a supercharged (OR N/A) Mustang and you beat them. I already knew this. Theres many.
Its a fact that theres lots of people out there with fast cars that cant drive them.
They arent making excuses, they are bringing to light "FACTS".

12-16-2009, 02:55 PM
my car is pretty fast according to me lol. and the 03-04 termi. I wont mess with. soon though lol. I dont believe this thread at all. Like I said from the start.
If you beating a car, you dont hit the brakes, just cause your in front and call it a win. you should agree to a certain speed/distance to make it fair. then if you win its a KILL
They are street legal. I know of one down here that is turbo charged
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Mustang_SVT_Cobra
And yes, it would also eat the lt1
I was under the impression they had the same status as the new Cobra Jet. Never researched them, whoops.

12-16-2009, 03:49 PM
Your all haters! The OP beat them both in the 1/4th and his car runs 13.0s. Doesnt matter what car was faster or who drives better. The OP won and thats all there is to it. If I race a top fuel dragster in a pinto and he roasts the tires it doesnt matter a kill is a kill IMO.
He never said his car was faster just that he beat them.

No, that was some other kid we banned last week. Kid was terrible...
Luckily he wont be coming back.
Well, Kid said he beat 'em, so he beat 'em... Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
Of course, it remains a fact that by every objective measure, 285 won't beat 360 where weight is comparable; and I suspect that we were all subject to a healthy dose of delusion when we first rolled out in our all but stock rides.
I KNOW that I was POSITIVE that my car was a FREAK of nature... when I first got her. We were killin' EVERYTHING.
Then... we went to the track. Where we learned that a measured course and a clock are the fast track to a drag-education and a dose of humility...
Whichof course leads to the inevitable rebuild and MO' & MO MODS! And eventually... at some point it occurs to ya that without regard to HOW much love ya pour intoyour baby... SOMEONE IS ALWAYS FASTER... And I HATE THAT GUY!
This is the guy I usually run across the very NEXT week; following a period of TLC, mod and tuning; which brings that rarest of all nights, when everything that stages up slips behind us, run after run; and we play drag-racin'-rock-star for a night... (I LOVE those nights...)
And I guess word gets around and there he or 'they' are when ya drive up the following Friday night... blowers', turbos, roll-cages... the occasionals... who just trot out to spank who ever's making noise; and the whole thing starts all over again.
Guys like the OP are good for Drag racin'... they're pumped; they're absolutely sure... and they're perfectly primed for that inevitable awakening which sustains our avocation...
It's a shame he's banned, 'cause he's the guy that's going to buy someone's heads... your low time 30lb injectors... that set of used hookers... the slightly loved LCA and anything else which promises to make that "G-tech" ping down just one more notch, on the cheap.
'Cause ya know he can't stop himself.
And why should he? He's only a 10th away from where he wants to be... where he NEEDS to be...
So cut him some slack... aside from the general douchery brought on by small experience and a big mouth ;.) he's no different than anyone else.
And besides... he is my absolute FAVORITE guy to race. It never takes long and they always calm down as the education goes up...
If there is such a thing... I vote to not ban him permanently... he'll come around and if he doesn't... you can always ban him again.

Both had A decent driver both had there chance, neither could do anything about getting rolled through the 1/4. I gave the comp the world over Plusmore, to work through his "problems".

Everyone who said there was no ban was right. ACHotrod and 5point7 are both right, but have differing opinions of the situation, which is the way this forum is supposed to be.
