Default 03 cobra Vs 05 vette

i finally got a chance to race a 05 vette tonight. i have seen him around before but could never get a run in. well we line up and he wants to go from a dig which i dont like to do cause of wheel hop so we go and i get the initial jump for about a foot then it starts to wheel hop so i let out enough to get traction back and he puts about 2 1/2 cars on me i get back on it and he doesnt pull an inch through 130 when we let off he still had that lead from the start. also i think my clutch is slipping or the belt. thats alright though my friend in his t/a beat him a few min later though, so it was a good night. i lost and know for sure the t/a is quicker. but i do think from a roll i would have kept up with him or beat him. maybe.

I second that. I've been kinda curious about how a terminator matches up to a C6. With your mods alone you probably netted at least 30rwhp right? I know Cobras pick up an insane amount from basic bolt-ons (not including S/C pulley.) So, as far as you could tell was the C6 stock or not?

Yes, get him to swap the rears. The car feels really violent when you hit it once the solid is in. Zero wheel hop doesnt hurt either. Nice runs. The last C6 not ZO6 I ran into, I put about 8 or more cars on it but you are stock and have a fun road ahead of you.
