pullie,down pipe,tune,exhaust,headlight ram air mod (lol)

hes launching with a fwd auto so it tends to put his power to the ground alot easier, and that nite was my very first time doing dig races... my very first dig race was with the cobra, and was my best launch of the nite... the gtp races i either boged or shifted way 2 early... but no excuses.. i should get him next time... the last race he had like 1/2 a car on me... but those lil sc 3800 engines do make a good amount of tourqe.. but hes getting some power adders so he might run into the traction issue sooner then latr...

i am 100% stock... alot of people hav been useing me as a ginny pig and hav been coming out disappointed, iono if im just that good of a driver or what.. but its just so easy for me to shift a hydraulic clutch then it is a cable clutch for some reason, so i tend to shift kinda fast... drove my friends cobra and that thing was 10 times difrnt (besides the extra 120hp lol)... maybe i hav a factory freak on my hands.. but its 100% stock, i will even hav jermzz look at it next time i see him..he will vouch for me

Enh..don't worry about the doubters...I had people calling BS left and right after I ran my car at the track. Unless your running solid 12s and near 110mph traps you don't have a freak.. you just have a normal LS1 Car.

who said i beat the cobra? did you even see the vid? cobra had me by like 3 cars by the top of my third... but i just posted up the vid cause thats not that bad against a pullied cobra and me being 100% stock... and that gtp his quick on the streets...owns 80% of the cars he races.. and if you know anything about those sc 3800 engines, that hav nice torque for those lil cars... hes shooting for 12's in about couple weeks...

My bad, I got it confused with another video sorta like that one.
Trust me I know plenty about the 3800 series II engines. I've beaten many of them in my old V6 Mustang

Nice run but yea a pullied cobra will have you but add just a small 100 wet shot and you will be good to go.... to be a good run then they need a ported blower.... but yea cobras are the only/best thing ford ever did i will admit....

You did real good but your boy has to be lying about his power. That is a 450hp car. Nothing that full bolt ons and a cam can't take care of. I would probably do ok against that cobra
