Default Got Killed By Blown Cobra

I ran into a 96 cobra and thought nothing of it, but it turned into a death. This guy was pacing me and dumped so i had to play catch up and hung with him. We stopped at a stop sign and we started talking and he said he was supercharged. We take off from the stop sign and i guess I spun a little but he pulled about 1- 2 cars on me and started waving. I stopped him from pulling but wasn't able to gain any lengths back. It turned out he was also squeezing, but a death is a death. It's all in the name of going faster, time to start moding.

Just shake it off and move on. No big deal...

What is your car running? Must move out alright.

my mods are Mac headers, ory, k&n fipk, spec 3, 4.10's,and a dynomax exhaust with a cutout. My car needs a tune, it's been running rich. the 4.10 's spin the tires too much . i will be installing some control arms in this week hopefully that helps a bit.

Those are pretty strong motors. I ran one when i had my 01 Z 100% stock and had him by about 2-3 cars. He was full exhaust, 3.73, hypertech chip, Steeda short throw and K&N. It was a good race. he blew his motor on the third run though. I bet a charged one with the right mods would be some serious ****

i pulled about 2-3 cars on one the other night in a short race. he said he had heads, cams, and a few other things. he was blowing some smoke out his tailpipes though. smelled like he was burning something, but didn't smell like oil.
