YOu have shamed all C6 Vette owners losing to a 96 cobra. Sell it and buy a Volt.



J/K good run. Fast Cobra. Not sure a tune will make up for that.

I will say the cobra is very strong for the mods. It has beat a lot of cars it shouldnt but so has this vette. My clutch stuck real bad in 4th. Time to replace that. Lol.

Always some one faster. Either you had car to track.

Buddy just ran high 11;s with his cold air/LT/X pipe/tune C6. He is a manual and getting used to driving again. He has said he thinks it is a little faster then his G8 that went mid 11's. with cam. Just need to learn to drive it. Not faster when he sprayed his G8. LOL

I think the vette did good, a tune and a better clutch and the vette would do really well againt the same cobra. Cobra is fast and sounded good.

the cobra was the one with the bad clutch. could prob add another half to full car with a good clutch.

both of these cars run very well for the mods they have.
