Default First night out; Integra Vs C6Z T/A Cobra

Took the car out Saturday night despite my knowledge the car would be useless on high boost with the sub 50 degree weather.

1st run was a C6Z. A built 427 Lingefelter car with "Aggressive heads and cams", 600whp N/A. From a 60 roll he honked and we took off pretty even. Spinning at the top of 3rd we were door to door until I had to shift to 4t and he pulled a car and stayed there until about 135. Car was fast lol.

2nd good run was a 'cam only' T/a and me on low boost. I pulled about 2 cars from 50? We went at it again with me on high to see the difference and car was all over the road until 4th and I wasnt watching to see how far ahead I was. there was a nasty cog setup f1A cobra in the other lane that apparently was in it too that may be on video. I tryed lining up with him earlier and he didnt want any.


3rd Run and only run on video (from me) was again low boost against a pullied/intake/exhaust cobra that made 486whp. From a 50 hit in 2n d which meant I had to shift right away. We were pretty much even
.


The car is isn't 100% tuned on the bigger injectors so I imagine there some decent power on the table for low boost. I just gotta wait until I can hook in warmer weather to play with the beast cars.

Found the car running quite rich on 15lbs today which would explain why the cobra kept up when I normally pull a few cars on cobras in that power range.

Video of T/A added. More or less messing around lol

If more imports were like the OP's, they would get more respect.

It'll be stupid once the new suspension is on and it gets warmer out.

Car looks and runs great man. Im anxious to see how it does once you get everything dialed in and weather improves.

I've gotten stupid people vibe from both groups. The main thing that separates them is $$$. You'll get a more mature crowd with domestics because they are older dudes.

Yeah I didnt even notice him when I was running the T/A. Hard to tell when he actually got on it. I know his car isnt running 100% yet and probably why he was skeptical to race
