Default 08"Lingenfelter Z06, 04' Cobra, 05' SRT4..etc

Myself in the CETA, the 08' Lingenfelter Z06, a sick fast Srt4, another yellow 07 C6 , and a 03'-04' nasty Cobra all hooked up and went to the Sheldon/90 meet tonight. All 10 sec capable cars with the exception of the basically stock yellow C6.

Few Videos......www.texasperformanceevents.com event

All great guys and thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Had a number of runs with the Cobra that made 630whp....kudos to him as is a FAST car. Very close low to mid range, but the last video showed on higher end that mine pulled out on him a bit. About as close of a matchup as you could get there...best runs I have had in a while.

Ran a couple short times with the SRT but never really had a clean run. Edged him out a bit, but the 2nd run we made his clutch was slipping so did not perform as well....very fast car. Videoed run was cut short as Lingenfelter was in front of me upon take off, and did not know if he saw us go in time.

I ran with the Lingenfelter early in the evening against a 1000cc bike, but shortly after taking off i missed my shift into 3rd and blew a piece of piping off my throttle body....fixed that and moved on to the meet.
We ran again late from around 50 and I spun launching, and he dead hooked pulling out on me. I figure from 50-120 he will still put a car or so on me...very fast car. His makes 560-580 to the wheel.

Honestly not sure what was in the Cobra......the guy in the Lingenfelter had run him before and said he was in my power range....car was fast. Never had a chance to see inside his engine bay...will see him again next week and will find out more.
