Good kill bro and dont mind the Cobra fanboys, 1-2 lengths is believable against a stock Cobra or maybe a modded one with a bad driver. Btw I dont see how anyone found your post to be cocky, you didnt come across that way to me.

I agree with the guys above - I don't wish a ticket on anyone else unless they're a total jackass. Then again, if it had to be me or the other guy, I'd be glad the other guy got the ticket.

Cobra fan boys?.....ok...if all of you had paid attention to his recent posts about stangs and cobra's...you'd know why I posted that. Secondly, are you guys serious?...all biased aside...70-150 and he had two lengths?...Sure, if this was a dig, I would have posted Nice kill and left it at that...but two lengths from a high roll?..when he's only trapping 109. Excuse me for not believing everything posted on the i-net.

T56SLPSS...you're right....low 13s.

and his post was in mp way, shape, or form cocky. he was stating facts, and there wasnt anything "cocky" about it. he never downed the cobra, and he never elevated his car to a level higher than it is. anytihng can happen on the street, who cares what his trap speed is. ever heard of a bad driver? plus this cobra couldve been stock, in that case yes a basically full bolt on LS1 would walk.

Maybe you didn't hear me correctly:

"paid attention to his recent posts about stangs and cobra's...you'd know why I posted that"

"all biased aside...70-150 and he had two lengths?...Sure, if this was a dig, I would have posted Nice kill and left it at that...but two lengths from a high roll?"

"It's not the 'kill' that is so bothersome"

" He is so ignorant to mustangs it's scary. I give guys props no matter what car they kill...cause anything can happen. But this guy posts kills on cobra's like they are 96-98 GTs"

"I don't doubt a kill....I doubt the lengths and/or the fact that it was an 03/04 Cobra (vs. a 99/01)."

It's because of your shitty attitude. You act like you know alot about the cars, but you really don't. He's trying to get you to realize that you're still small-potatoes in the grand scheme of things, and just because you beat one car doesn't mean you can beat every car like it

Sounds like this cobra may have had a bad night.
I say again: Good kill. 12.7x on a track vs. a stock Terminator = pretty close to a drivers race and you won. GOOD KILL.

Thank you Capn.

Unit - No problem......I just wish some people would be a tad open to being ignorant. Accept it, and learn....it's a trait all of us have. But that doesn't mean we should stay ignorant.

I just find it hard to believe.


T56SLPSS - I got 150 from your post number 13. "didn't take it over 155 (which would be the end of 5th gear)." Since you hit 5th then shut down..I guess 140?....I don't know what the ls's hit at the top of 4th in the T56.

Slowed down due to cars in front of us then took off again from 70, pulled about 1 and a half lengths to 110 then shut it down. Undercover cop flies up and gets behind the cobra flashing his lights and waving a flashlight. We both slow down and i notice the cop stays behind the cobra since he was behind, he splits right onto the interstate with the cop on his tail and i went straight. Took the car home and parked it for the night. If your the guy in the yellow svt how did it go?? WAR AGIANST SNAKES, ANOTHER COBRA DOWN!
Good kill.......it's war out there.

I've chalked up a handful of LSx kills over the past few weeks for the Cobra side.

top of 4th is about 120 then alot of power is lost shifting into fifth. I used to have a 97
z28, A4, 3.23s, CAI, and cutouts and i outran my buddys stock 01 ss after we hit it at 130 to well over the speedo bein peggd out. so the t-56's lose alot when you grab 5th. just my personal oppinion, maybe i need more upgrades
