Default 03 cobra vs. Lt1 camaro from a roll *video*

Raced my buddies 03 cobra from a 35 mph roll. I prefer going from a dig but this was the only way he'd race me lol. His car has bolt ons and is a stick car, and mine is a built 396, TH350 trans with a 4000 stall. I raced him on motor, If he wasnt granny shifting and double clutching like he should have been he probably would have got me lol.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yZ4_...feature=relmfu

I like those 03-04 cobras. Usually its the driver dropping the ball. Great race - for that may cubes I honestly would have expected more but i don't know much about LT1s, i wont lie. lol

Nice! Looked like a clean run, and some good fun.

Lol to the Fast/Furious reference. Your buddy definitely needs some work banging gears though, I could tell a story in-between the shifts.

Good kill! Driving ability definitely matters, but you gave him his race so you can't do more than that. Any numbers on your car?

Not sure on all the mods, i think headers, pulley, cold air, etc. Its claimed to have 450+ rwhp. My car just sucks from a roll, I have a manual valve body th350 so i only have 3 gears to choose from, and my big stall just flashes as soon as i punch it. And my engine is a nitrous engine so its alright N/A but it loves its bottle.

Heads are brodix ik210's and I dont have the cam card on me, but its pretty good sized, It's supposed to make power at 7500+ but i cant spin it that high w/ the lt1 computer, I plan to switch to the efi connections ls1 computer soon so i can spin my eninge to its full potential. Regardless it will still suck from a roll because its a close to full weight car with a big stall so it just flashes it. Ive alway wanted to put a 6 speed in it to see what it would do ffrom a roll.

im assuming your stall is one designed to run its best when spraying?

Its definitely pullied... IDK if that supercharger was ported. Ported/pullied cobras usually make 500+rwhp. Pullied ones usually make 470-480rwhp.
