These are pretty much my thoughts. I can't take away from the win and I give you props for that. I have a car well setup for dig runs on the street so I know how easy it is to take out higher hp cars in a marked 1/4 mile, but the fact is just because you kill them out of the hole doesn't mean they aren't coming back STRONG on the top end. He must have been one shitty driver or still spinning all the way until you let off because he was not coming back on you. Even with your 800 or so pounds less, he should still have close to 200rwhp on you, which is MORE than enough to be coming back like a freight train up top.

But regardless of the details, way to take his $50.

That car moves hard from a dig on the street though, regardless of his track times. Ask me how I know

thatf ucking cobra was going through gears fast it seemed like in the video...good win for the sleeper 3rd gen with stock front wheels lol. i would have thought after the 1/8th the cobra would have been running you down like you hit the brakes. my guess is he didnt spray or it malfunctioned. even so a pullied and ported cobra should trap 120s without nitrous so he should have been coming a little bit. but my guess is definetly no spray that run or hes just spraying the intercooler to cool down the air and hes not truly getting the extra 100hp. ive been in 03s with pulley, header and tune and it will easily spin through 2nd ont he street and add a ported blower and 100 shot that thing would spin through 3rd and that guy didnt seem to spin much at all.

Thank you on the good win.
And YES he DID spray, it did not have any malfuntions as he also sprayed shortly after that.
He has some decent tire on that car is the reason for not as much spin as you would think.

as for the comment on my 1.9 60' at the track....those were almost 3 year old slicks with nothing left in them they were hard not soft.

The owner of the car said nothing of problems or any malfunctions during our hanging out for hours after that pass.

Yea, I heard no issues coming from the cobra owners mouth after the run. We all met up, and he hit up the ATM and gave Slow92 the money. Then we were all just hanging out, with no issues. The ONLY thing that was brought up was that the cobra was rolling back slightly right before the arm drop...but we all agreed that 3 feet of rolling back wouldn't have mattered with the lengths that the camaro put on it.

the cobra rolled back a little but it doesnt make up for how much he got beat by. In my book chase is a race. The cobra should have never launched if he knew he was rolling back

Good video. According to that video, you just ran an 11-second 1/4 mile on the street (from the time you punched it to the time you hit the brakes). I still think that Cobra should have been coming back HARD top end. Either that guy was a shitty driver or something's up with the car. There's just no way a 130+ trap car wouldn't be coming back on your 120+ trap car top end unless someone was either a terrible driver or something was wrong with the car/traction. I've raced way too many cars that make way more power than me but I've killed out of the hole to know that anything else could be the case.

Wow you guys give that croba a ton of credit.

My old Cobra mods

O/R X pipe
Catback
2.76 Upper
4LB lower (17lbs of boots total)
Steg Stage 4 port
Spec 3+ Clutch
KB Boost-a-pump
100 Wet Shot
Bob Kurgan Tune

I put down 486RWHP off spray at Exotic Performance Plus
Then on a 100 Shot I put down 601RWHP and 711RWTQ

I trapped 123- 125 on motor and my best trap was 130 even on the juice.

Very nice and believable kill OP.

To bad my F-body is way way slower.. For now.
