Default The old C4 on squeeze vs tuned 03 Cobra convert

Finally got a chance to line up againest the buddies terminator. Ended up a good race but a peddle fest out of the hole. We both heated the tires, did a few dry hops and on the third honk ran from the dig.
I pulled him out of the hole by a fender and held him off for what I would call a quartermile. Wheelhop and weight killed him. I think from a 40 roll he'd bury me but hey it is still a kill. Here are a few pictures of his ride. He running an X pipe with cat deletes, diablo tune and homemade open air intake. Quick little car. His next stop is the 2.8'' pulley which will require more mods for my old LT1 Vette. Next stop for me may be a Dana 44 upgrade and some deeper gears like 3.73's

Happy Easter

Great kill! I've been wondering when you were lining up with the Cobra, lol.

It was tight just like you said it would be. Close enough to hear the blower whining the entire run, even over the muffler eliminators. It all boiled down to I spun less.
