Too bad you'd need 3 KB Cobras to pull your car down the track for a 133 mph trap

Really? That's cool, I had a blast with that car but I ended up wanting something different and ended up bailing. I never tracked the car, only street raced it and the new owner said he threw the battery in the trunk and ran skinnies and it went 10.4x @ 133 (IIRC). It was a very quick car and the KB scream was so fun when you were messing around on the street, the echo off the next car was a blast

Wonder if it was a LS2 or LS3.

I'd expect an LS3 to hang close.

yea man I literally almost got a 03 sonic blue cobra but someone beat me to the punch on it but, I found this car and it's fully loaded, already had the headers,cai,and exhaust on it so I couldnt pass up on it. Only downside was I had to trade in my truck on the corvette just to bring it down to the price of the cobra lol.

I would have loved to get a corvette when I purchased me Cobra but the Corvette is not very family friendly and it is hard to beat the whine of the ported eaton.
