Default 03 Cobra vs. 05 GTO
Alright guys here you go. I raced my friends 03 Cobra the other night down in Mexico. For some reason 4th gear kept giving me trouble, but the last two runs were clean. Cobra Pullied (14psi), JLT CAI, Mac mufflers, off road prochamber, Steeda Tri-ax shifter, Spec 3+ . GTO heads, cam, intake, CAI, Kooks LT, Corsa cat-back, Spec 3+.

They look like 10th anniversary wheels, which are silver / gray in color.

Sorry but when you said race down in mexico I was expecting to see a couple donkeys pulling some carts.

I know thats really wrong, but hey I'm mexican so I'm allowed to say stuff like that.

shouldn't you be making close to 475rwhp with that setup? I'm surprised you didn't pull a little harder....?

Had a passenger. I guess it would be closer if I drop 180lb person. But no joke, I road in the Cobra before the race and new i had my work cut out.

Not fair!! Not fair! GTO which is already heavier has a passanger the Cobra does not. Haha I'm sure in a driver's only race the GTO would pull slightly.

Good runs. Ditch the passenger and you could easily pull him, it looked like you were getting him on the top-end anyways. Finally a good video with multiple runs in a well lit area, keep it up.
