The Cobra's aren't slow by any means. I have seen some really heavily modded Cobra's perform rather poorly at the track! But they aren't slow and have the potential to be much faster..........with the driver mod.

Have you ever driven one? They are quite fast!

Good kills. Hope this thread doesn't get closed cause someone obviously underestimates your car.

Dont know why it's so hard to believe guys. His combo sounds sick. NA I can walk a Cobra with more power than me. I ran a 600 rwhp 03 Terminator on spray. 600+rwhp. I stayed right with him and was gaining when he let out. Him by a bumper.
GOOD KILL!

Good kills & as^^ Scott stated this is not a B.S. story. I don't see why its hard to believe a H/C w/supercharger Vette wouldn't pull a 500 RWHP Corba. They are WAY lighter & WAY more aerodynamic. Some people need to actually learn about cars before they post ignorant ****.



Good kills man.

Some guys bs and then others dont. Im sure CWA is no liar. Good kill man. Im getting my 2.6 Kenne bell just in the off chance I run across a badass Vette like yours! NIce kill man.

Yes, Cobras are heavy as hell, try pushing one onto a lift!
Yes, they feel TOTALLY different with the IRS thrown out!

Nice kill CWA.

Very nice kills man. I don't doubt anything from your night at all man. Your ride has GOTTA BE FAST...there is just no way around it. Anyone that doubts that this car, a head/cam/blown C5 can't beat a 500whp cobra, is just suffering from lack of knowledge, or is in serious denial.

Honestly, a well driven C5 with 400rwhp can beat a 500whp Cobra, no problem. I've witnessed several examples of Cobra's go down like that in my old C5, that made 400whp. Matter of fact, my buddies C6, when it made 407whp(mostly stock)...walked a few of the same ones I did. I belive I have even posted the video's.....which i'll look for again(people thought his C6 was a C6 Z06, cause it beat the Cobra soo bad).

The blown version, I would guess to be well over 550whp....very easily more. Obviously, he's at a "stock block" restraint.

Regardless of that ****, again, nice raceing man. Like you said, Cobra's aren't slow.... so, it is nice to beat them. You and me both need to get some video camera's for nights like this.

Peace out.

Jamie
