Default 01 cammed ss vs. 2.4 kb cobra VIDEO

sorry i took awhile. good video, bad thing, youtube muted the sound. sucks. he uses vht, i dont, like it matters that much anyway. heads up with flagger. i launch at 2 grand. he spins 1, half of 2nd then hooks up. rematch when the weather clears up. told him he better get it quick before i get my nitrous tune. only suspension the cobra is lacking is front struts. vid is 5 mins long cause my buddy likes to make a good video. intro is of his red Z28. then it starts with my car, the cobra, then the race. anyway, enjoy. and again, sorry for sound.

Nice kill.
I like the banner: CAMARO WINS... LOL
Looked like he started to pull back on you, but not by much.

when it says camaro wins, i had let out but for some reason, he wanted to stay in it. i stayed in it probably 20 feet or so passed the 1/4 before i let out.

What are you basing this off of? And do you know what kind of suspension he is running?

Finally got the video to load. My opinion...

Looks like you got him to run your race. Auto, stalled, geared...Yea what did he expect? Still looked like after he got his **** together finally he was pulling on you HARD. Once you noticed that, seemed you let off. I'd like to see this race from a roll. I'd guess the Cobra would win by 4 or 5 carlengths.

He held him off for 12 seconds, from start to when he let off. Even then, the cobra didn't pass him until 16 seconds and didn't really start pulling back until 9-10 seconds into the race. I suppose the cobra might win from a roll, but they didn't race from a roll.

I'd like to see a rematch at the track if there's a rematch at all...

Nice race the way races should be ran... Even if the cobra won from a roll, doesnt mean anything.. He won the race that matters..

Great location, good vid and you guys even went to 130. You sure did win your race and that's all that counts. You put 3 cars on him out of the hole each time though he was making it up the whole race. I have no idea why guys with 550-600rwhp don't set thier cars up enough to handle a 3K launch and actually hook. If you guys do actually go to the track you are sure to et him though his traps should soar past yours N/A. Very good kill.

I would guess the auto car hooked and the Cobra spun through much of 1st and 2nd gears. Probably not surprising.

thanks guys. i dont do roll racing. autos dont do that well roll racing unless you have a manual valve body. i'm sure when he gets the front adj struts, will help him hook better. they want a rematch, just in a different location. probably setting me up. and yes i launched at 2k and hooked so i didnt lay all the way in it right of hand. i wished i could, would've been a lot worse for the cobra. and if yall want, i will run to 140-150. i held him off a pretty good ways i think. and i stated that he spun, no need to say that he did cause i already have. spinning aint winning. of course you all know that.

the funny thing is, the driver of the cobra called my buddy up and bet 100. he had to go to the atm cause he thought he was taking home some money.

as of right now, i'm faster than him on the track. he needs a little more seat time. i'm not sure what they launched at. but 3k is probably about right.

streetfire.net for hosting and you wont have your sound muted. YouTube is for little girls doing covers of bad songs.
