Holy unison shifting Batman! lol Sounded like you and the cobra were grabbing gears at the same time every time.

Nice death, that cobra can scoot.

Pretty close, a longer/higher MPH race = advantage Z.

Actually the Z won the race, the cobra was still in it in 5th when the Z passed him. This is my buddys car, it made 432 rwhp 398 tq on sct's dynojet. I have that video too somewhere.

39 second mark areodynamics kicks in and from the 39-44 second mark the vette pulls on by slowly.

Good vid. Cobra had me worried for a second. Lol

I thought the cobra let out....vette come around him pretty good in 5th. I still think he should've pulled earlier.

Racing a Cobra in 5th gear usually isn't a good idea for them...good kill OP, close race.

Yeah we were surprised too but we knew the Cobra trapped 122mph a couple weeks earlier at the track. It was def quick but it was setup correctly, it wasnt the normal "throw parts at it" car.
