Rx7 vs 03 Cobra I decided to go for a cruise today before work and on my way back home I see a red snake exiting the highway I needed to enter. It was lowered on some nice black rims with a polished lip. It was very clean. he even had #s on the back window as if he recently ran it at the track. And the tag said "VNMOUS" Needless to see I missed my exit 
When he was merging on he gunned it and shot around some traffic. I could hear his exhaust from several cars back and it sounded good.
I catch up to him me in the fast lane him in the slow and he gooses it a few times I did the same to let him know I'm game. After clearing some traffic we had enough room to stretch our legs a bit.
He pulls even with me at about 65mph and his window is down now. I point for him to go but i guess he didn't want the move because he pointed for me to go first
I was in the meet of third gear and punched it. He went right after me and from 65 I was able to pull about one car in third and in 4th i began to see him in my rearview mirror. I shut down at about 135 with about a car and a half and still slowly but steadily walking away. When the mustang caught up I gave him a thumbs up and I think he said "that thing's fast" but it was hard to hear at highway speeds. He exited the highway shortly after and I followed hoping to get an idea of what mods he had if any. But he never pulled into any of the open parking lots and I didn't wanna freak him out by following him around town so I just called it a day and went home.

one race from 65-135
FD pulled about 1.5 cars
My mods are T04R , 15psi this run
The Terminator : catback? ,maybe more?

^^^ Did I miss something? Where does a TT Supra come in on this one? 
Good kill, but I would assume the Cobra had to be more modded than that. My GR63 FD would pull a fult-bolt (Pulley, tune, exhaust, etc. 463/480 Cobra) by a car or two to 130 at 16 PSI.

Excuse my ignorance but what it FIPK? BTW nice kill. I know of a few local supras that will eat me alive.
I honestly would be very disapointed if I could only pulled 1.5 cars on a stock Cobra but i can only guess at his mods.

Great Kill man. I ran VNMOUS also a while back. His Blower is loud as hell! I couldnt get him to pull over either. Me and 3 other guys in the car(one a Terminator owner) believed he had a KB as loud as it was. I drilled him by 5 from 30-120. It got scarey because the T tops where off. I know guys real dumb.lol
Now about those TT Supras. I have been dieng to get my hands on them. Where can they be found?

Been there done that. Nothing really in my area. It is a shame really. I know there is stuff out there that will smoke me. Just haven't found it yet. Yeah I know, that sounds cocky as hell. But it is true.

I wish i could know for sure what "VNMOUS" had. I honestly don't think i could pull a KB like that. I can't wait to see how i do against the local ported eatons though.
Actually the supras i'm talking about are single turbo. And i just found out one of them is still building his motor and the other just finnished but is having problems lol...never ends...
