I second this. In the summer my car dead hooks all the time, but when the temps drop into the 30's or below there are times I'm going sideways at 40-50 mph, with far less power.

Imo it wasnt due to the launch that made the cobra unimpressive. I feel a KB + N20 700+ rwhp cobra should have reeled him in a lot harder than it did. Call me crazy but thats just how i feel.

I thought the same. I guess that 408 rolls out or we have to go from saying "your 4.6 needs a power adder" to "your 4.6 needs 2 power adders"


Just harrassing you guys, don't get yours panties in a bunch.

KB Termi obviously didn't have that good of a showing but I think we can give a lot of the credit to the cold weather and "700whp" or however much it makes. I'm just curious, if he was going to spray, why just a 35 shot?
Basically, it's just to keep it cool since that blower creates some heat. Said they gained like 50rwhp off of it, probably more torque.

He's going to a taller tire soon.

To be fair, the Camaro does trap 127 on motor. With as slow as the Cobra shifted, it was going to be tough for him to reel him in quickly.

Ryans car does need a taller tire for sure should have seen my car with those wheels and tires and 4.56 haha =worthless. And The Heads cam car is in my eyes a nice and simple set up and works, Like stated above it did trap 127 mph that should give you a idea on how it runs.

It's kind of hard to see the tires on the Cobra but it almost looks like he didn't leave hard enough vs not having traction. And I'm not surprised that a vehicle Brad put together moves out. Good video once again Sean.

Trust me, you won't be. Lay it down, do a burnout in it and keep rolling it forward to extend the line out (it will lay it out pretty far if you keep the tires spinning). If you just do a burnout in the same spot, it will only prep that little spot, so you want to roll it out. Make sure you launch from the same spot you did the burnout in (duh), and the more burnouts the stickier it gets. Some people have bogged because they weren't leaving from a high enough rpm, and stuck too good.


You forgot the best line, "If yo tires are slippin, you aint pimpin!" Wonder if I can get a sponsorship from the guy who makes it and get a free bottle every now and then.
