Default Poor 03 Cobra

That lined me up on the highway Found out Mike's car has full boost at 3500rpm in 5th. From a 60mph roll I left the Cobra like he was a Yugo and all I did was roll 5th

It will when I actually run some boost in it

I think the plan is the car will get Mini tubbed then we'll get alot wider wheel/tire Combo.
