He jumped me in the 60 roll and can clearly see him ahead, then I come around and pass him. Even on my least efficient rolls he got took.
Another thing guys!... he traps 125, I trap 115-117 depending in what my stall feels like doing. He should of smoked me from any roll above 40... M6 vs A4, usually m6 takes it.

Edit:
Ok so I was off by 2mph... Powerhouse (5.0)-------------11.8 @123motor
Powerhouse (5.0) --------------11.2 @ 126bottle
But still, huge difference in trap... At least these are the times that are posted.

I believe his new motor is built but low compression for boost or spray. I didn't put it in the video because I wasn't 100% sure. That motor pass was on his original engine I believe.

Thx dude... show your buddy that wanted to run me at one point, lolz.
Yes it is, I really thought i was going to get walked on the 40 as i usually have by others. This stall is proving itself to be much more efficient, didnt think so before the retune.

Watched it, and thats what i expected.. that Cobra makes nowhere near 520rwhp with bolt ons/tune/pully.. maybe 420 if hes lucky. And way for him to blowwww the tires off on that dig race lol.
As for you and the 5.0, i would honestly love to know how a car that traps mid 120s got freight trained like that, seems like something was amiss....

What mph does your converter lockup and did you start in second or just punched it with the converter unlocked? Car moves out great. HCI cars with stalls can be mean on the street

The 500+ is what those douch bags claimed, 420 you are just being a low baller, everyone know that these termi's need atleast 80rwhp than an fbody, to beat one (nice try tho)... As for getting trained, many have suffered the same faith, with similar traps. Specially from the low rolls.
And telling me that cobras need 80rwhp to beat an fbody, what exactly was your point with that remark? He didnt beat you... so therefore your point was? By your logic him making realistically 415-430rwhp and you making 42x (or whatever) then you should have beaten him, which you did... so im still not sure what you were getting at.

Before the converter was super loose and sent out to PI to get it check'd out when my trans oil pump failed, and had traps from 115-117. I told them i needed a bit tighter feel and to make sure it was ok to spray it up to 150 shot. Now, i dont know what im trapping, it should be more effiecient up top and make more MPH, should of been spec'd out this way atleast. But dont know exactly where it locks up at. On the 20 and 30 rolls, i Drop it in first gear and manual shift it out, 40 and 60 i launch it in 2nd. Works just fine for me, and delivers as you can see.
