Default Finally got a pullied Cobra! --Video--

So this past weekend was the break in of my new 100 shot, lol. It worked better than I was expecting We weren't sure where my car stands, so I started out with 2 consistent 2.8 pullied/tune/bolt on Cobras, the Silver one has meth injection.

50 roll went great, I spun a little, but as soon as I hit 3rd I started walking away. Had about 1 and a half cars at ~130 (top of 4th).

I'm pretty sure the second roll was a 45, but it could've been a 40, lol, I raced a lot this past Saturday. The Cobras jumped out, then the black one missed 3rd, and the silver one got reeled in in 4th gear to lose by about half a car @ ~130.

Did I mention these were my first races with Cobras ever?

I also raced a Kia Sportage SUV on the way home

I pulled up to a red light to find a 30 year old dude with his lady staring me and my buddy down at the light. It was creepy as hell till we started hearing revs coming from this Blue Beast, lol. So I went ahead and purged it at 1000psi....

His girlfriend starts cracking up and the dude has a huge smile on his face.

Light turns green, we both ease out, I take 1st to ~2k, then granny shift to 2nd. He takes off!! I plug the bitch and put a bus or 2 on him by 60mph, lol. No spray. **** gets crazy below 40 mph, lol.


Definitely a fun night!

It sounded pretty nasty.

If I had to guess, I'd say it was a forged rotary stroker with billet muffler bearings, Titanium 97.5mm turbo, and a heavy duty 2 puck clutch.




Nice kills, looks like it runs really strong.
Thanks! I can't wait to see what it does at the track. I need to get rid of these Crapitumos though, lol.

Nice man......good runs for surelooked like you and the black var would have been real close the second race if he wouldnt have missed 3rd. Your car is light 3240lbs? And a full bolt on LS-1 with a 100 shot is a very close race with a pullied Cobra. I barely edge my brother out and he makes 451rwhp.

Well it all depends on the Cobra and the driver my brother made 362rwhp N/A then has a 100 shot on top of that and we were real close....I edged him out. His is an M6 also.

Nice kill OP...

I would like to think that a 100 shot LS1 could take out a pullied cobra. My cobra is slow as hell!
