With full exhaust,CAI and tune he would still fall short of a well driven C6....If the Cobra was loud as he described then the Cobra had at least exhaust done which is faster than stock...............I call

OMFG! Even if I don't get my account deleted I'm never posting on here again. Sharing my story was supposed to be fun. Now I'm just being called a liar?!

If American car dealers act the same as American car drivers then I can totally see why the Japanese are taking over the market.

What a shame. Why does this section of threads even exist anyway?

Default Give it a rest . . .

This thread is called 'Street Racing & Kill Stories', not 'Street Racing & Kill Stories Debate'. If you think the story is a lie, don't reply and let the thread die. It gets so old going through replies with people giving their inventive responses, 'No way!', 'BS!', 'Yeah, but...!', etc. Combining that with the Rustang Defense Insurgent Squads on here, I'd swear I was on svtperformance.com by mistake.

people are aloud to have there doubts and I have to admit reading your first post i was ready to call BS but when you are more specific about your mods its a little more believeable
i've beaten a few cars I didnt think I should have with the mods in sig
who knows maybe you've got a factory freak
another thing you have to remember about this site talkin **** about Vettes,Trucks,and Stangs will be highly scrutenized by anyone with one
every one wants to believe their **** is the best

and for me really the part thats unbelieveable is that you had a C6 pull up next to you at one light and then after you whipped him an 03 Cobra pulled up at the next light you stopped at?
Man i've gotta move there there isnt much competition here, maybe at the third light a Lambo would have pulled up

well i mean i'm not tryin to sound like a dick but i'm constantly tryin to be first at a light and do so with a car worth racing and that hardly happens and for him to have back to back bad *** cars I dunno I guess now the more I look at it I call at the fact that you had two bad *** cars in a row to race at a light so that makes the rest of your story
stop tryin to church it up Dirt (Joe Dirt)

These are some pretty tough words and show great signs of maturity. Do you really think that you can just post up whatever you want in the street racing section and it will never be disputed? That would make for a pretty lame forum if every response was "good kills dude".

"Hey, I just raced a top fuel dragster and I was pulling on him until I ran outta gas"

"Good Kill dude"

But I didn't say anything like that... I was excited and felt like spreading the word of how impressed I was with my new camaro.

Thank you for shitting on me and one of the best times i've had behind the wheel.

I guess anything can happen on the street. You have an LS6 intake,tune,mid-pipe/catback,CAI, and Shorties..........All that adds up to about 30-40rwhp tops!!!

An LS2 with that setup with LT's instead of Shorties would net about 40-50rwhp Tops!!!

You need a good 380-400rwhp to keep up and beat a C6 or a intake/exhaust Cobra with capable drivers......Your mods fall short of that!!!

I guess thats why you are getting doubts.


Good Kill!!

**** me for asking about your mods? Lofty claims of beating the cars you did. A C6 and a terminator even stock that got the jump.

Thanks for sharing your mods...

And one more thing...

You said you own your car alittle over a year? maybe the guy or gal that ownd it before you put a cam in it or maybe even heads? Maybe thats how your car runs so strong? I'm new to ls1 but aren't there cams that add hp's that sound pretty much stock? Anyhow maybe its just a freak and you caught them off guard, I say good kill but i'm more of a see it to believe it kind of guy

SO what you are saying is that your car basically will trap 112ish like stock C6/03 Cobra with your stock LS1 even though 105ish mph is the norm for stock?

I think some A4s really get the car moving. Especially after fiddling around with shift points.

I'm taking my car to the track tomorrow for the first time since I bought it. I have an A4, FIPK intake, ORY, LM, & a chip.

Can a barely modded ls1 beat a cobra and c6??? Now we'll be able to settle this...
