Track sounded really sticky for that G8 lol. That thing needs a converter bad!

I was skeptical about the Cobra's plates until I heard it go. Did he get a clean pass? Any ET/mph #'s?

Looks like the Cobra needs some suspension work, looked like it was pulling to the right hard.

The G8 is stock stall. Leaving at (1800 rpm) on spray with E/T streets

Cobra never got a clean pass, temps started to drop too. He drove it to a 9.9x at Gateway Raceway in STL 2 months ago.

Lol I never said that. But if you're going to have such a blatant plate, you better be able to outrun the majority of them, not just stock cars.

Gotcha. Yea I could tell the G8 was on the stock stall. That's cool the Cobra got a 9 second slip though. Pretty bad *** ride.
