caindo- I never said I dislike GTP's. In fact, I think they are great cars.

I have ran a few of the older GT's with my wifes GTP but I don't think I would try it against any of the Cobra's. That's just asking for a *** whipin'.................
The GTP is deceiving. I ran a buddies '96 or '97 GT a few weeks ago in the grocery getter. We went @ the light, I didn't hook very well but I still caught him and showed him my brake lights. He had an exhaust and thaz about it. He couldn't believe it.
If "mama" would let me, I would put a smaller pulley on it and a modded air box. She doesn't want me to mess with it..............she wants to get something different in about 18 mos or so when it's paid off..................Can we say GTO ?
Gotta have a set for the kids.........
Good kill anyways. I'm sure you tightened him up after you shuter' down in 2nd......

Watch out, she's got all wheel roll. THink she'll take you from a dig, but if you catch her sleeping you may be able to out-launch her.

Now, Unit, is she on the old school skates or does she have the new inline ones? If she has the inline I'd have to say your going down, more streamlined and such.

Awesome. You whipped a GTP in your SC Cobra.

Hey guys! Check out this one. I blew the friggin' doors off of a Toyota Prius in my SS. It was like the guy had cinder blocks for tires. Woo hoo! Ain't I great?!?
