03 Cobra vs 06 GTO So I was driving down 190 mmob when this guy in a black cobra comes up fast and starts pacing me. I figured maybe he wants to play, thats about the time I heard him downshift and wait for me to do the same. I figured what the hell why not.
We went from about 40-120 or so 2 times and both times he put about 1- 1 1/2 cars on me. The third race he gave me the jump and I let out at 130ish and I dont think he was gunna catch me.
Through the car window at 60 mph the mods I made out him saying was a pulley, some exhaust work, and a ported blower. He yelled something about a tune, I think he was trying to say he didnt have a tune which would explain all the smoke when he let off the gas. His liscense plate was pretty funny, UR 2 SLO.All in all some good fun races with a cool guy, just figured I would share it.
PS. My mods at the moment are not what is in my sig, I am currently running JBA offroad mids, Magnaflow Catback, and a Diablo Sport tune.

if you are not running a turbo he is not running a pulley. Because pullied cobra with your mods would have about 90hp plus weigh about 100 lbs less. But good race none the less.

But what I think the deal was is that the guy is in BAD need of a tune, Im talking lots of smoke out the tailpipes.

Snake 2 Goat 1...sounds like the cobra was running rich. I'd agree he needed a tune badly because he should have walked you pretty good considering mods. Good deaths/kill. Sounds like a pretty cool guy rather than a cocky ***.

And lol I have done the same thing with the turbo..... pssssshhhhh
