I'll Translate:

-Spots 04 cobra at traffic light.
-He pulls behind the cobra in his LS1 camaro and revs to get his attention.
-04 Cobra punches it on greeen but allows him to pull along side.
-They both punch it, but he misses third and cobra killllssss him by -buslengths.
-He catches up and follows him to an open road where they race again from a 25 mph roll.
-He honks 3 times and they take off. He pulls the cobra by 4 lengths after the cobra turns off.
-He still loves his LS1.



J/K. I think he got killed when he missed 3rd, then won by 4 from a 25 roll, but don't know how far they raced before the cobra turned off.

stock 03/04 cobras are like a Unicorn. You hear about them and see them in pictures, but you will probably never lay your eyes on one.
