As long as you get any type of traction you will be showing him your taillights.I Would put some slicks on your car and you got him covered.

The point is they both have power adders on their motors, that's all.

Its sad you need to spray all that nitrous just to keep up with a factory car...Sort of like a Honda dropping 10 grand into it just to beat a v8....Dont see the point

u must be a cobra fan boy or some crap. if nitrous came on cars from the factory it wouldnt be any different, its still a power adder on the car.

Not to mention that were talking about beating[edit: losing to] an -at best- 1997 car here, no one's claiming the LT1 is cutting edge...that's why we have LS1's, lol.

Either way, kill is a kill....

Here here!!!!! I dont mind getting beat by a car that has 90 or so more HP, but it is fun when you own them and they make the excuse that they have less cubes, even thought they have a blower....dude whatever.

I have never gotten beat by a stock 03 or 04 cobra, only raced 4 or 5 but I guess they couldnt drive....yeah thats it.
