Default I got owned!!

I'm coming home from the races when some kid and his girlfriend in a new skyline start pacing me. So, after about 1min or 2 I gunned it. I'm bone stock 98' t/a, a4,and gu5. He flies by me like was not moving. i got .I took it til' bout 100. I new he would eat me alive,I just wanted to see what would happen. When I slowed down he kept laughing and pacing me. The whole time I saw some HID's coming up very fast. It was a 03-04 cobra that was screaming with boost. So I moved into the emergency lane and slowed down so he can teach that punk a lesson. The cobra started pacing him like he did me. They honked it off at about 50 and the cobra broke loose for about 30ft or so. Then clearly flew by the guy. About a 6miles up the rode I saw the cobra at a Sonoco I stopped to get some gas and talk to him. He said he had seen him at the races and the guy been talking **** about american cars. When he saw him pacing me. He wanted to see if I would take him, cause most LS1's are pretty mean when not stock. He said he got him by about 5 to 6 car lengths.

My favorite part.

No shame man, they are tough. Just get a modded 03 Cobra, they can handle 96% of what you find on the street. All jokes aside, you need some mods man.

Yeah those new skylines run pretty good. I love the fact that he didn't get to enjoy his kill long though. I bet that smile and laugh didn't last long and then he probably had a case of the long face. Good **** man, put some juice through that LS motor, it makes them happy.

Nice death. What do Skylines run in the quarter mile? I don't know anything on them. It's a car I would like to know about. That way, I know what to expect if I run up on one.

Badass of the Cobra! That is one thing I love about domestic owners. One guy can have a SS Camaro and the other a Cobra and every time they will come together to put some Import owners in their place.

Only thing that would have made your story better was a C6 Z06 going after the Skyline. I don't think he would have been laughing if he saw those rear brake scoops on that C6 next to him.

Honorable death my young son. It takes us boosted big boys, or you cam and heads LS1 guys to play with those skylines. They are freakin fast though for a stock car. Haven't seen a modded one yet.

Great story! It's getting scary these days with how fast some of these factory cars are. It's even scarier when they mod them up. Definitely keeps you on your toes and the mods coming.

What are your plans for the car?

They are stronger out the hole than they are from a roll, can't wait to run up on one myself, especially after I get my H/C install this week, looking to make 510 at the wheels hopefully.

Great story! The only one I've run into was when I was in my Formula.

But even my Camaro wouldn't do so well with one. I need to step up my game.

Yeah I'm sure that's exactly what happened.

PSM, I think you'd probably do ok against one from a roll. I would think it would pull you, but not by much. From a dig on the street you'd probably be in trouble, but at the track you run very close to what they do
