Street Racing & Kill Stories - Bolt on C5Z vs H/C Camaro and a few others...

Did some racing this weekend at a large event in Mexico. My car is exactly what the title says, Longtubes, X, intake and a tune...

The first race was against a Camaro that is tuned for spray, but he said its making about 430 on motor...so we went from a 40 roll...

ps..my girlfriend was half in the bag, trying to record with 2 cameras and almost dropped her phone out the window...hence the comments at the end lol

So then, he had a buddy with a Genesis that wanted to run. Didn't think much of it...

So that didn't work to well for me at all. I almost missed third, but he was coming around me regardless. Talked with the guy afterwards, and I guess its just a big turbo car. Ran good thats for sure!

The next night, a pullied cobra that he said was making 480 at the tire wanted to run. It was about 75-80* out, so he was prolly making a bit less...but again from a 40 roll

He needs driver mod. Bad.

After that, a buddy of mine just got his 01 N/A Cobra back together...Not going to say much about the car because I didn't ask if I could...so heres the race

So that was all for my weekend...all in all, won 2 and lost 2 so I'm good with that. Also, I think everyone I raced is on this site so I'm sure they will chime in! Hope you enjoyed!

New one...I hear its a shop car built by Beyond Redline Performance. Of course I didn't hear that until after I raced him :)

good races that n/a cobra ran good

Yeah, there are slower ones out there. Its sounds fucking epic in person too

Nice kills, that 01 cobra sounded like it was reving out pretty high.

yeah he wasn't fuckin around.

Nice runs wish there was more info on the 01 cobra

Nice runs and that 01 Cobra was pretty stout!

That Genesis moved! The Cobra was pretty cool too. He was spinning that engine high!

Nix

Cobra owner doesn't mind. Its a 5.0 stroker, ported heads, cams, FR500 intake, t56 w/3.73's. Its a bit under geared right now but yes it goes over 7000 rpms.

The genesis hurt my pride a little...and yeah the cobra is honestly one of the best sounding cars I've heard.

hmm not bad must be heavy. Do you now the compression? Car should run a little better then that imo. Gears will help alot tho so maybe it will change.

its lower compression...he has a D1 for it...

I agree. What can you do man? There is ALWAYS someone faster.. Drop a Procharger in that 'Vette and show the Genesis who is boss! :jest:

its 10.5 to 1 right now and its only got 300 miles on it so it will probably gain a few once it gets fully broken in. And it has blower cams timed for a blower, so its not 100% optomized for NA. Car weighs 3300 I think w/o driver.

Oh ok I see yea makes a little more sense now.

Run that Genesis from a stop and see who is boss.

Niiiiice videos

I spin the cobra to 7500. Just got it back together like 4 days ago. It's built for boost. Would have more cam, more compression, and at least 4.10's if I was built to stay n/a. Still have a few things to finish on it yet, and get the motor fully broken in. We'll have to run again when its 100% done. I ran that other cobra during the day when it was hotter and put 3-4 cars on it. It's also the same one in V8EATER's vids. Good time for sure.

Oh for sure. Or you could just hook up your 8hp meth kit and pull me by a fender lol :) LMK when you wanna run again

Good runs. Cobra sounded good.

For sure. I'll get a better intake pipe made and get the motor fully broke in this week. Hopefully i'll make it out next weekend. Couple other cars I wanna try down there.
