Default Death to 04 Mytichrome COBRA

*This race happened about 2 weeks ago.* I just got gas and I was driving when I noticed a 04 Mystic COBRA on the street on the right side. He was pulling out of a FORD dealer ship. I know that COBRA used to be owned by a friend of mine, but he brought/sold it to the FORD dealership. I heard the owner that works at FORD traded his black 04 cobra for my friends previous COBRA. Anyway I make a U-turn and I follow him. I knew he wanted to run because when I got beside him he smashed on it. I follow him to the freeway and on to HWY 4. I'm in 3rd at about 70MPH and I kinda get on it to let him know I'm ready...I hit and he hits it right after and I heard his loud *** S/C and he comes smokin past me.. ?? I'm thinking WTF. I remember when my friend still owned it all he had was a SLP Loudmouth with a SLP catted X. We raced and it was a very very close race and I have it on tape(hi-8). ANYWAY I heard he took off his intake and pulley off his black Cobra and put it on his new Mystic Cobra.

The title of the thread led me to believe you killed a mystichrome cobra, not the other way around. Nice death though, nothing wrong in losing to that car.

That's a shame. I'll race most anybody if the conditions and locale are right. I don't care if I know I'll slaughter them or am going to get slaughtered. It's just all in good fun.

At least you get to see Cobras. The only time I saw one in Mountain Home was when he passed in the opposite direction. The guy saw my car and threw me the most obnoxious rev I've ever heard on the street. I want to say that it was a Termie.

If only he wasn't going in the opposite direction. I haven't seen him since!

a worthy death. Terminators are monsters, but get a well equipped LS1 and it is a good race.
