Thumbs up Terminator vs LS1 **VID**

I was asked to film a race by another member on here (FST SS) of him and his buddy's Cobra. The rain finally relented so we went out this morning and got it done.

Dave & Paul, I had a great time and it was good to meet you both!

I love your threads becuase the vids are always amazing. Two different viewpoints and HD! That Camaro sounded very nice.

I'd have liked to see a few more runs though without a passenger in either car, and maybe some digs too. What happened when the Camaro pulled hard in 4th in the last race? Was the Cobra still on it? And also the starting of the races didn't seem too even, as in leaving at the same time and being lined up properly.

Good vid though!

Thanks.

Keep in mind that it's Memorial weekend, and that the police officers that got stuck working this weekend are very pissed and take that out on everyone by giving out tons of tickets. Besides, blower + street tires vs. sticky Mickey's...I think we know who wins that. That was the reasoning for the no dig.

Cobra was leaving on what would be the 4th honk, not the 3rd. Camaro gave him the hit on the last race to make up for that (even though he was really going at the correct time).

No idea what happened in the last race, Camaro just pulled real hard once it hit 4th. Maybe heatsoak was setting in on the Cobra or the Camaro was just stronger. Cobra was in it until the Camaro let off in that last race.

Great races. A stock 03/04 Cobra is nothing impressive. Now install the least little thing and they wake up!

It was fun, the Cobra thought it was honk.honk.honk.go. The last race I let him get the hit, he pulled every time I shifted, then 4th and I pulled. I think from a dig it is my race, even if tires are =.

I'd bet a CAI only and the Cobra would walk away.

I would hope so bud. It is forced induction. The camaro would rip the cobras front bumper off on 7psi. Not trying to get into a big flamer mustang war but just saying.

On another note this is one of the better races iv seen on here in awhile. Very clear and daytime always is a plus. Great runs!

Thanks guys! Daytime videos are always my favorite to make. It's nice being able to tell exactly what's going on. There is a good chance I will have some more coming today.

I was hoping you'd mention that story about beating the 5.0.
