Default I've got a race with a 466 rwhp Cobra !

And I'm gonna get killed Oh well it's all for fun I guess. I'm tempted to use my dryshot, but I don't think I've got enough injector to support it with my recent cam install. Maybe if I use a 50 shot I'd be OK ? Anyway the races I'm getting all the sudden are starting to amaze me. It's kind of like not having sex for 2 years and having two Hooters girls move in with you one day and taking turns with you lol ! I'M UP FOR IT

I'd love to see that car out at the track with us... the Cobras I've seen out there so far have been less than impressive. His looks like it be a hell of a car to see out there... I'd like to line up at the strip against him and see how I fair.

Damn Bill, you're like a virgin that just woke up at the Mustang ranch lately. I think we've seen him before. Like Jason, I just invited him down to the track. I even offered to race him for beer.

From reading the link it sounds like this guy is going to get a lot of action. It would be great to see him run at the track for some solid time slips. At least you all have been civil about it so it may bring him to the track.

why is the wicked witch of the west repeating in my head "come here my pretty"??

yeah, he came out to Burgermaster that one time we all were there... he brought a friend that had a stock Z28. I'd like to see it run at the track... timeslips are the best way to judge things, not as much variables like on the street.

I've tried to race charlie about 5 times now and nothing seems to work out. either his car wont shift into fifth or his tranny is going out, or he's not on his mickey's

I showed up on friday last week just to run him and he wouldn't but he still runs you on the street.

I think i have an honest chance once i finish my tune completely and im at the 420rwhp mark (fingers crossed).

Oh and bill if you put your 50 shot on that should secure certain victory from a roll.

LOL I was in the backseat of the new '05 white Envoy my parents had just bought...........my old man was teasing me saying, "Look, they are out test driving your car"

Told him not unless they licensed it in WA and put a front plate on it.....

Hey bill I mean mark, or whatever your name is, i forget so easily the people that lose to cobras............j/k

With a 50-100 shot i think you will take him on the top end, If you put on some drag radiels, i think it will be all over but the cryin, but mybee not, I have seen some fast cobras, quite a few down here but i would put any of your cars up aginst them any day of the week, I think it is a driver thing with them. one has a kenne bell and some other bullshit, runs low 12's, but i think it is a driver thing, he can't shift at all. i keep wanting him to let me drive but then it would need a cage and stuff and i don't think he wants to go that far.

Anyway Good luck, and get some video!

That is not the same guy that was at Burgermaster. His white SVT had an all Bassani exhaust. I would like to meet that one again now.
