Nice death. No shame in losing to a KB Cobra.

BTW, what color was the Cobra?

Raced them all from about 40 (since the cops kicked us out of our race spot)

Sawed off the nitrous gto and stroker 2.4kb cobra by about 4 or 5 cars...

Next the damn 2.6kb..he was on slicks and skinnies, weight reduction, driver mod and a whole lotta boost. He wouldnt tell me how much power he made, but he said it was quite a bit over 600.

We lined up at 40, I gave three honks and we jumped on it..I immediately pulled 1/2 a car. Slam 3rd and he pulls back next to me. Untill he shifts then I get about 1/4 car on him. Now were both jammin in 4th, and I have to shift before him (damn 4.11s) When I shift he pulls back his 1/4 car and pulls another 1/4 ahead of me....I was pegged in 5th for a while...prob going 180.. by the time I let off his back bumper was at my front fender..

I couldnt believe it!!! I lost!! Damnit!!! oh well, can't win em all, Rich is a really cool guy. I'm gonna try to get a video from my friends phone who was in the car, but I dunno when.

I wonder what's gonna happen when I come out spraying a 150 shot next month?????????

That is impressive! a KB cobra with weight reduction, etc are very quick with a good driver on the street! I just sold my 03 cobra that was built similar, different blower...

may I ask what kind of numbers your car puts down and any track times? I would like to see what your car does to the same car with the 100, 150, and 200 shot! or your car with 200 shot and him on a 100 (a 100 shot on a cobra is insane due to the intake temps, etc)...

Hehe, you like that? Doesn't look good when I lose though

I dunno if I wanna **** with a 2.8??? hahaha.

I'm selling it cause I wanna build a low compression big cube big turbo car and it will take too much effort to get rid of all my stuff and start again.

I wanna take it to the track, unfortunately our good track is like two hours away... and on slicks and skinnies that's kinda far..not to mention about 80 bucks round trip in gas. Soon as I can get my hands on a trailer and a friend to drive me, i'm there.

Numbers are around 550 - 500. Kicker is that it's already making 420lbft at 3000rpm with a big *** cam. Nick @ newtech performance.

Yes, big cube turbo is THE way to go. Youre right though, starting fresh may be easier. Good luck, Im sure its gonna be a beast man. Turbo...
