You definatly need to get a video of this.
I have nothing against cobras...personally I like them. I wouldnt mind having a 03 or 04 cobra.
But yeah, This kid doesnt know what he has.
Just run on a close to empty gas tank and say the winner fills the others car up with gas LOL.

No doubt you would have raped a stock 99 Cobra with your mods, but that's the worst setup race I've ever seen. If you go from a roll start NEXT to the car and give it 3 honks. Starting a car length behind the car and just flooring isn't anything to watch.
600lbs? 99 Cobras weigh 3400lbs, your Camaro weighs 2800lbs? I see you're e-challenging me to a race. Well, it would be a good race, I'm just in a little old full weight M6 Cobra with simple bolt-ons and a little juice.

camaro.... what the hell is that..
my TRANS AM! weighs 2900#s... so yes close to 600 lbs.. in another month or so it will weigh right at 2800#s..
i dont think it would be too good of a race.. you would be there, but not close enough for me to worry..
11.58 @ 123mph
150 shot ??.?? @ ???mph
it would be a good race if you sprayed a 150 and i sprayed a 75.

Loudest stock LS1 eva, must of been the BS factory god edition. Next time line up with him and give some sort of indication of when a race is going to start. A video starting with you already full throttle a car length behind and then staying in it till you're 50 car lengths ahead is just garbage.
I didn't see a race, but if ya say that is what the outcome should be. I guess we will take your word for it.

Damn lemons, didn't you post that same video in a kill thread and get the same reaction as this guy's???
Must be fun to do what you do. Sadistic, but fun.
Oh yeah...
I WANT TO SEE A DAMN VIDEO!!!
If the OP doesn't post this race soon then Lemons and Bayarea better duke it out and record that ****

You must not be familiar with Lemons, his "stock" car or punisher racing...

yes, i did... it took a minute for the regulars to chime and and give a little insight on my stock car.. and yes, it usually gives me a good little chuckle.
i doubt me and bayarea are going to be duking anything out, unless he wants to make the cross country trip.. would be and interesting vid nonetheless though!
its starting to warm up some more.. so im going to start having a little bit more fun... first warm weekend im going to throw my tires on and have some fun with some bikes.. then ill start setting up some more races. i will deliver some entertainment!

Haha, i turn away for a second and the thread explodes. I keep bugging him to race and say it will be close but he says " I dont want to get in trouble " or " its not worth my time".... but he did say he would take it to the track when it opens so because he wont get in trouble so maby I can get some friendly staging lane bet or something. But if that is when we race it will be real ugly because I just bought an SS3600 so it will be real ugly then....

then ask him how much of a waste of gas it is.. they are rated with 10 hp from each other from the factory i believe..
kid is a tool.. /thread

the verdict is that the kid's a d-bag and doesnt know his left hand from his right cuz GT is on the trunk and its def not a cobra... and brice will kill it and unfortunately the kid is real dumb b/c if they raced on the street brice might break loose a lil bit but on the track he will dead hook making it worse

Personally...I think the guy is a BS'r and spent 7.5k on a 99 Fobra GT.

nope...it's called BS..that's why. A bank wont' finance a car that is over priced compared to value like that. the ONLY way would be IF...and big IF, he put a huge deposit down so the financing amount is at or below book value.

Please tell me you are getting some nittos or MTs with the mods you have...i've race a lot of mustangs and the GTs are slow as ****. I don't know if the one I raced had something wrong with it or not, but it was so bad I thought he wasn't racing. We talked afterwards and he just said he needs better tires, but I was on wide oval 245s so that's BS.
I was a stock a4 at the time w/2.73s and LTs and exhaust...it was pathetic. I wont even bother racing him with the mods I have now.

taking "his word" again?
just because people have nice things, nice cars, and do stuff a lot while living in a nice house does not mean they are loaded.. it could mean they are in debt..
not trying to get the thread in that direction just saying.. a lot of times people you think are loaded are no where near it.. they are so deep in debt they will never ever get out.

Seriously though....i guess it's possible, I mean, if his dad's dumb enough to do something like that, they're probably dumb enough to over pay by 10k. LOL
Seriously though, I can't see how a dealership could even consider asking dble the going market. Dealerships don't do that. i tink lame-o tryin' to impess everyone and he's new car datty bought him.
