Default I love the taste of 04 Cobra!!! (Pics inside.)

Had my first race with my friends 04 Cobra. We went out on the freeway and raced twice. The first run was about 50-120. He jumped in front of me at first but I pulled him back in and eventully took him by about 1 to 2 car lengths. The second race was from 35-125. I pulled in front of him and never looked back!! I was shocked to learn that he didnt miss a gear while shifting!! Its my first 03+ Cobra kill so I am very happy! Well on with the pics..............
The pics were taken by a friend in the Cobra.....
The cars...




The competition......


The race...........
Going....

Going...


GONE............sorry for the pic quality, but they are captures from a video!!
By the way, these pics were from the second race.

Nice kill and good pics to document it.

What are your mods and his? Looks like a stock 'vert to me.

He has no mods, Cobra is stock right down to the filter.
I have an SLP Loudmouth, Air Lid, and a K&N filter.

I would be careful of saying "I love the taste of" and "snake" in the same sentence.

Wow, that's a strong pull for a near stock F-bod. 2.73's in there? That would explain the pull up top.

Dude, I know you have pictures and all but it seems very HARD to believe. Dont get me wrong I drive TWO camaro SS's and i have been to your web site and I really like your car. But the Termintor's (even the vert), run very low 13's and high to mid 12's.
All you have is LM, airbox, and filter? And an A4 to boot, with comes with 3.23 gears aginst a car that has ALOT more HP and lower gears (3.55's). I just dont think that an auto SS could ever pull a stock Terminator with just your mods. Mabe the kid really couldn't drive? BTW Nice race!

Ill give him some more time to learn to drive better. Mod my car even more, and next time the gap will be a lot further.

well the Cobra seemed to have 2 people in the car and only 1 in the SS....mayb fat people vs. skinny? who knows...that is really tight that you won but dont expect it to happen alot especially with LM and K&N thats something for the vettes really ot challenge, cobras 03+ pull much better

Good kill by the way and DAN your head is TOTALLY in the gutter hahahaha make a good point however


Edit: its also a very and with 2 people in it....definitely worked to your advantage

2 people in a 'vert puts it well over 4,000lbs unless those two people are Mini Me and an oompaloompa.
