EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. Hit the town tonight in the LS1 lookin for some runs since i could not hook up any on the net You guys will love these...)
C5..First run
Got a light with a cocky C5 owner that smirked when i pulled up next to him. Light changed and i waited for him to hit it and he did at around 10 mph. The Z pulled him a good 2.5 cars to 85 where i shut down .
'03 Cobra....2nd run
Followed an '03 around with i could tell a cat back and he had an Eaton Inside sticker on it. I pull up next to him finally and ask for a dead stop run and he agrees and follows me to the Mexico test track. I count down and we get a good dead even start. i pull i good half a car out of the hole. A4 clicks 2nd and the '03 hits 2nd and we are even through that gear. He clicks 3rd before the A4 and he starts his pull. we shut down with my speedo readin 90 with him approx 1.5 cars ahead. We pull over and talk and i KNOW with how loud that blower was screamin that he was not stock, but he claimed we was except for the Bassani exhuast. He also reported that he was "stock" he went 8.4 in the 1/8. I went 8.5s in the 1/8 last time out. Let me tell you though, that Eaton was screamin so i was thinkin he was packin more....He videoed the race and he is T3Cobra on svt.performance.com. He might post it under the '03 section.
While trying to set up a run with a Mystic Cobra the '03 Pulls up and we start chattin again. The Mystic wants none of the LS1 or '03. Then a 90ish Shelby Charger 2.2L pulls up with some gauges and asks for a run. We agree for a 3 way run kickin it @ 40 mph (A4s dead spot but i wanted to run). i never coudl get lined up with them, but they ran with the '03 pullin slightly every run. So me and the Shelby kick it from 60 with him getting the jump and he pulls me good a couple cars to 90mph
Then we hit a 25 roll with a killer even start. The LS1 pulled a half car and the the 2.2L started to pull back even. Hit 3rd and the Shelby started to walk the dog on the LS1. I let off at around 110ish and he had a good 2.5 cars and pulling hard. I run him again from 60 Mph and he pulled a good 4 cars with him getting the jump by around 100-105mph.
We pull over and chat and these 2 guys in the 2.2L where awesome. We chatted forever and I got to ride in the 2.2L He reported that it had 22lbs of boost, 50 some lb injectors, exhaust, intercooler, weight reduction, etc. He reported on 15lbs he ran a 13.0 @ 107.5 with 42# injectors and some other things. Had a great time with him and we even tried to run the C5 i smoked earlier but he wussed out. Had an awesome time meeting them and they reported that they started a web site i think it was TurboDodge.com.
Anways...thought i would share some killer runs.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. These Roanoke Runs EZ? The Cobra was Yellow with T3 Cobra on the plate. His car has a Lightning pulley, catback, and CPU. I dont know what mystic you ran. Did the 2.2 have a plate that said 1-4MOPAR. If so I ran him last week. Strong car ran 8.30s@ 89 on his old setup, he has burst a lot of V8 bubbles in his car. Hope you had a good time man.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. Hey EZ, the Mopar guy is named Michael. Really nice guy. When I ran him he was only running 15 PSI on his newest setup, got him by a car from a roll and two from a stop this was before my headers, but I think he could probably still take me now from a roll, fast car. that T3 cobra should be putting down 450RWHP I just do not understand those cars, they should be sooooo much faster than they are. Anyway man I am glad you had fun.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. Yea i had the pleasure of ruuning the Mopar when he was at 22 lbs of boost. He was a really cool guy and ooffered to buy me some beers afterwards..ha ha.
Yea the guys on LS1.com are giving me some hell b/c they think the Cobra should have beaten me by more. I guess they are nto aware of the driver factor.. ha ha.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. NIP it says frce pwr feirce power not force. no im not trying to be a smart ***. by the way with 10 pounds of boost steves car went 12.13@110 i dont think that 2 extra pounds of boost and longtubes are going to give him over 1.5 seconds jmo. Ill give him an 11.40
Tell him to stop being a chicken **** and asking me for 5 lenghts. All i got is a little ol ls1 with some laughing gas.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. I was alerted to this topic by one of my friends.
I had no idea their were street races in Roanoke.
I may have to come out and look for that lil' Yellow Cobey <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
If the weather would hold up one weekend, I would love to find some of you all. Where does everyone hang out?

I woudl bet it traps an easy 117 in the 1/4. They meet up on williamson road, and if yuo see them there then they will tell you where they run. It is a blast, they are some very safe places to run there actually. But i am in sunny 75 degree plam beach now so i miss those guys.

Re: EZRIDN Vs. '03 Cobra...'99 C5...90ish 2.2L Shelby Turbo...Check these out. Interesting cars in S. FLA creeping around. Noone ever wants to run me from my exhaust note. Bark is worse than it's bite right now. Long tubes help. Gotta get the damn Vortech off the floor and the car back off the lift. Finally get down to Tower or something.
Damn TQ tubes. 2nd one I've broken. I hate Taurus rentals. What a POS this Ford is. What's up with all the goddamn clouds this winter?
