I figured with the weight difference of the cars, it would either be close or the 3rd Gen was going to win...more so I thought the 3rd Gen would win.



Good race and props on putting a LS into a 3rd Gen, easiest way to make a sleeper IMO.

Thanks! It was a strong cobra for sure. Seemed as though we were pretty even off the hit, and then on the 2-3 shift that torque advantage shined in the cobra, then we leveled off again. A first gear roll, or even a dig would have been cool too but we just didn't have the time or space. I think those scenarios would have given me a slight advantage.

Great run. Some weight taken out and a fast combo should do the trick.

So the Cobra is still about 200 lbs heavier than you at this point right?
Cant wait to see that video.
