Default Run in with 04 Cobra

Had a few short runs with an 04 Mystichrome Vert tonight. I had my 200lb friend with me riding shotgun, he was alone. It's very cold high 20's to low 30's here and traction was not to be had. These were not all out races as we were in a really bad place but short gear sprints. I was in 2nd gear and around 40mph when he came up beside me and hit it, I followed and pulled 1/2 car or so in 2nd gear until we had to stop at an upcoming light. When the light turned green he was behind me and as soon as we had cleared traffic he came hard up beside me and I layed the throttle down in 1st gear only to hit 5K rpms and the tires started spinning badly. He passed me and I short shifted to 2nd and really fishtailed bad. I followed him further up the road and we BS'd for awhile. His mods were CAI, Offroad X @ SLP catback. Sounded really good BTW. He said he has a interchangeable pulley set and will be adding a 2.8 before long. I'll have to meet up with him after he gets the pulley on and see how it goes.

So far I'm 4-1 against the 03-04 Cobras.

I've only raced one and showed him not to judge a car by its year alone
