Default LS3 Corvette vs. SVT Cobra, LS2 Corvette, Turbo Integra, 403 Trans Am

Couple races from yesterday in my buddies C6 LS3 Corvette. Corvette has Headers, E85, and a Tune.

SVT Cobra
17 psi
485whp/525tq

Turbo Integra (567whp)
*Run with Integra wasn't clean needs re-run*

Solid runs.

Those runs with Termi were nice and close, good racing!

And the Vette driver was really rowing the gears, nice job.

what wasn't clean about the teg runs?


Nice kills though, very strong running car. I expected more from the cobra to be honest.

Why? The C6 probably makes ~400whp, has the weight advantage, and someone who can drive it.

Great runs... Im a bit confused though

Im thinking the LS3 vette was super stout and the kid could drive it.

Then its side by side with an Eaton cobra.

How did it walk the cammed ls2 C5 so well and not yank the cobra?


Is the ls2 c5 just weak for its mods or is the cobra super fast?

And props to the ls3 vette and cobra on some clean shifting.

Kinda disappointed on the integra, figured it would have rapped the vette. Also, that cobra was way too close to the LS3 given the fact that the vette was on e-85 and had a driver on beast mode. That LS3 has to be making close to 430rwhp on the liquid gold... The cobra did have a good driver as well... The cammed LS2 c5 was a turd....

Awesome runs. That T/A was loud! Need a camera more suited for night time though, was pretty dark on some runs.

40 Rolls are not in my favor, especially when its 45 out lol.

This was a 55~ish

The C5 is only a 430whp car. I willing to bet the C6 is close to that, and the cobra is 485. Seems like the numbers all make sense to the outcome.

Maybe its all the hype behind cobras, idk just expected more from a power added bolt on car on 17psi.

Yeah i agree, now that i think about it it was sorta dumb to expect more. Local guy made around the same with e85 and bolt ons with a non ported blower in a gt shell and lost to a heads cam z28 (123mph car) by about a car or 2 from what the cobra owner told me. LS3 vette is a good driver, i want an LS3 vette so badddd lol.

I was actually expecting the vette to roll out on the Cobra. Good driver or not. Cobras are a lot of hype. They can go fast in the right hands. but 9 times out of 10.. i see them go down.

What are the exact mods to that cobra?
