Default Dead Cobra

Well, I anhilated a Cobra yeterday we hit the gas at about 20mph and I swallowed him up to about 60 before my girl bitched so loud that I had to stop. just figured I would share my experience.

20-60mph? Not much of a race then huh. I can't catch traction to around 60mph or so.

Yea, it had been my fist encounter with a new cobra. I ws hoping that mybe I'll see him again, only this time without my girl in the car. I would have been nice just to see how close we are. I know that 20-60 isn't much of a range, and doen't say a lot, but for what it's worth I did pull on him until my girl started to be a pain in my . Anyway I'm hoping to have my stroker motor and juice system in by April. I'm estemating about 640-655 to the rear wheels.

Nice kill. Woulda been good to push it a bit more- but let's just say you got about 60mph more of a race than I woulda gotten with my wife in the car.

I guess I got a 382 vette kill then, cause I was a car and a half ahead when I launched.
Are we having 1/8th mile runs on the street now or what?!
