Default 03 kb cobra vs 10 sec cts-v

Dunno if the cts-v owner is a member here, (Dude's from South Florida) but just wanted to share this badass race i had with this Head/Cam pullied mid 10 sec cts-v, race was last year (late november early december)

Bystander outside vid, too bad it was at night time

Don't know if this is the same car with a different setup (or just a healthy shot) but if so, i'm in trouble if i meet him again

btw: i have a small 2.6 kb with a measly 50 shot (it sucks i know but working on upgrading stock fuel sys soon)

Good race man, the cars seem well matched up! Any pics of your car?

I always find it funny when people downplay their setups.
"Oh it's just a 03 Cobra with a tiny little baby blower swap and a super tiny barely even existent shot of nitrous."
While at the same time they hype up the other guys setup.
"Heads/Cam/Pulley goes mid 10's!!" That car has stock heads.

Good kill.

Rumor is that they cts-v guy is gonna forge it and go with a 400shot to get into the 8s... the track run was on a 200shot but not sure what other mods.. I think he was at 700whp for that run... don't quote me. Lol

Good runs, looks like you edged him out at the end. Bet both of you were pretty happy with the results.

Definitely! I saw a picture of one a few years ago and knew that at some point during this race the weight would have become a factor! You can see it pretty clearly that the weight is holding the caddy back right before the 3rd beep.

Great vid & pulls, but the Caddy is wicked considering the weight.
