Jester177- A race is a race and a kill is a kill. Did you beat the driver, yes, but you know that and you dont think you will beat every ZO6, nothing wrong with that. On a side note, how are you going to call someone a dumbass for thinking you have 422hp when thats what you put in your sig .
To the guys telling him to go back to the stang forums, dont be dicks. Most of them ford boys come over here for the same reason I go to SVTP, to learn about the competition. Think of it this way, would you rather talk to someone who is half educated or flat out ignorant?

I said the same thing about owning an 03-04 Cobra... I have I don't know about 4-5 friends who own Terminators and only a few still have um. 3 of them traded there in for Z06's and well I was forced to sell mine after I repaired it. Ford and there great engineering when I got the "TICK" didn't know I should've pulled the motor taken acouple freeze plugs out to do a "COOLANT MOD" to the car to ensure it wouldn't have went. Well after a expensive repair and took a 4k hit when I sold the car. I saw a friend of mine bought an 02 SLP SS threw a cam in it, longtubes, full bolt on's and made 422 to the wheels it made me a believer. Great kill btw guy out here in CA names Jeff S. has a C6 Zo6 bone stock on street tires ran 11.6.. and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. What all do you have done to your Cobra?

Good kill jester. I'm guessing that you're making about 465rwhp based on
the mods in your sig.

I am not understanding how your heavy *** cobra won the race. What kind of power are you really making ?? Unit is guessing 465 rwhp, if he's correct there is no way in hell you should've won that race unless you drove ***** out and the c6 z hasn't a clue about how to drive the car.
At any rate you said you won and based on that good kill. Now can I get a shot at your 465 rwhp Cobra ???? Same roll race. My sig #'s are up to date . LOL

plenty to pull a C6 Z06 if the driver isn't really on his game.

bs...eather the guy wasnt in the rpm range when he "punched" it or he deserves to have his *** kicked for letting you pull on him without a rematch. I would bet ANY amount of money that a bone stock z06 would pull your car on the highway....period.
I once let a guy beat me in a honda civic cause he was 16 yrs old and knew it would make his day..he had maybe 200hp. Take it as you would but DONT call this a kill...it makes you look silly.

all that far off 125-126mph providing the C6Z driver isn't all
that great with a stick.

I agree with you there. Top end runs aren't my thing. I prefer
acceleration vs. ***** out speed. It just doesn't do much for me.
I've had a buddy's Hyabusa maxed out on the freeway and it didn't
impress me all that much.
You have to realize that not everyone knows how to drive a car like
it should be driven. There are always weird things that happen on the
street.

Definitely streetable...and definitely not a street car.
I remember racing a 2004 Z06. The guy ran a 14.0. I definitely believe
this kill. A properly driven C6Z would've walked jester though.

yeah that was me at sabin. You plan on coming there any more this year? didnt see you yesterday. Next time it sees a track, it should do better than 11.5 and 130, till i get kicked out anyway!
