Default CORBA..Taste like chicken!

So Steph and i are on the way home. coming across the valley out of kirkland we come up on a newer(NOT 05) Cobra. we are sitting at a light. Cobra, me(99 Vert Z28) and Steph. Next thing I know he is rev happy. Every time we get to a light he makes a point to rev alot.

Well we get to a light and he is the first car. he is playing and as we take off he Hammers it! I say F that and hammer it too!! He got out on me but by 50 I am coming on him hard and have to cut back a hair...at 110 I have to shut it down as I am less then 4 feet off his bumper and he is still going for it!

I shut it down and think dang no way THAT was a blower car. Just another 4.6 I guess

Well I wind up following him all the way to Monroe. We always take the back road. as we pull on to the West side of the sno-Vally he see's I am turning and goes that way with out a blinker. as soon as he does he hammers it again and all I can hear is that Eaton spin up! DAMN it WAS a blown Cobra!

I was just very suprised that an almost completely stock 99 Vert Z28 would eat a blown Cobra the way it did! VERY suprised! I am pretty sure he was a good driver as when i was all over his *** I NEVER saw the nose drop as he rowwed through the gears


First kill I have got to have in years....feels good

Are you sure Ryan & Jimbob didn't stick that cam & stuff into the vert?

Good kill Ellis! I am jealous as Hell. I've yet to have a go at a Cobra....fast cars!

Was it a white Cobra? Might be the same car I tangled with on 405 in Kirkland. He headed beyond Totem Lake as I exited. And I KNOW my car can eat Cobras but that car was more than I expected at the time. We were dead even on the initial spool but I could not accelerate as fast as he did once we got beyond 80 or so.

Way to show 'em up, Ellis!

I have yet to get a full run in on a Cobra... I'd like to get paired with one at the track, but it hasn't happened yet.

I heard that "Corba" tastes like tofu turkey

Ellis always has more fun than I do!

there is a black 03 around here that gets passed around like a piece of meat. even my buddy in his bolt on bullit beat him. but he can't drive for ****. not trying to say your car doesn't roll, just that you should be carefull. a bolt on 03 is a handfull for even a heads/cam car.

A blown Cobra, nice. To even find a little open road is tuff, but open road and a win is double good!

Ellis was so far up his butt, I just know he had to change his pants when he got home! hahaha The guy kept revving his engine at every light so he asked for it! Also it was one of those Mystic colored ones.

Well is was not Snake but I did a little Audi turbo whooping on the way out home from B.M. Saturday. Oppisite of the Snake he was up my ***. I saw him zigg and Zagg to get right up on my *** at the light near Boyces house just past the Whistle stop. So close I could not see his HID beams. as we took off he was just stuffed up my ***. Just as we cleared the intersections doing about 20 I dropped the hammer on him He tried like hell to keep up but I was out on him and gaining hard by ... well much faster then he was. Went for a long block. He NEVER even got near me after that. he lept a good 4 car behind me as the rest caught up and went by giving me thumbs up

Some thing about a smoking burn out from a 20mph roll while dropping a AWD in the dirt to keep people happy

Yeah, I know the feeling. When I am in my mom's Accura every ricer around wants to race. When I was breaking in the new rear end in the Trans Am every Mustang on the Eastside wanted to race. When I have the thing somewhat ready I can't buy a race.
