Default Terminator kill

We're out last night. My friend has a turbo sky and was anxious to whip a vette. We're setting it up and in pulls a black terminator. Note: theres a black WS6 (mine), a camaro, 5.0, ls1 vette, and sky in the parking lot. The termi driver parks a few spaces down and jumps out with his chest stuck out. I chuckle, anyway, I close the cutout and ask if he wants to run. He's thinking "how dare you" don't you see what I'm driving. Anyway he follows us to the closed private track. First the 350hp sky goes down respectably to the stock vette. Only about a carlength. Then I line up. He pulls over, and we're off. 1st dead even spinning, 2nd even, 3rd....it's a wrap, I pull a half and 4th.. game over. We lined up again and it got uglier. So, to recap, 320rwhp vette beats 343 hp sky, 400rwhp ws6 beats pullied, tuned, lt termi. ( what do they make 450rwhp?)

1 vote for the 03 Cobra was bolt ons with stock tune and stock pulley. Did make for a cute read though.

You silly GM boys and your cutouts. Its not enough that your car sounds like a 97 Silverado with exhaust, you gotta make it sound like a 97 Silverado with no exhaust.

Are you ****** autistic?

Your mustang might sound better than ours but our cars can run a decent number. Keep modding your 97 so you can have a chance at beating a stock ls1.

Um, can he read? The op said it had pulley, tune, boltons...

Cobras are great for noobs that dont know how to work on cars. Slap on a pulley and call it a day.
