If dude's bone stock and you can drive that thing, I think you could give him a run for his money from a dig. Launch her right, nail those shifts, and I think you got him.

If he's playing with a pulley and bolt-ons though............

If he really is stock you've got a good shot. If he even has a couple bolt-ons he will get you.

I'd say it comes down to how well you two can drive. Even if he's bolted, he can get overzealous and **** his launch up and cost himself the race. I've watched worked Terminators snag mid to low 13s at the track because the fellows couldn't drive the things.

Think you can find the guy? See what he's got done, check out his tires, talk and see if he knows what he's talking about. It could be a damn good time, regardless.

seemed all stock is a very tircky game to play with a cobra. my car looks bone stock. i got a magnaflow catback so its pretty quiet when driving around. be carefull. stock cobras are a lot more rare than a modified one.

since you have the passport radar detector, youll definitely pull about a car length at about 120. you should probably race him for money.
