Raced a "New Edge" Cobra and a 6.0 GTO Last night a few of us were at a Shell when a white 99-01 Cobra pulls in. Well I noticce hes just chilling in the back not doing anything. WHen we decide to leave I roll up to him and start talking to him, pretty cool guy, anyway I asked him if he wanted to race, he accepted. Racing on Vets in traffic is gay so we went on I-10 to the normal spot where we always race at. well I asked him what he wanted and we agreed on a 40mph roll. Well, I honked it off and he pull 1 full car on me(I have an auto)but that was it. I realed him in and passed him and by the time I hit 120mph I had him by 3 cars according to him. He said he didn't miss shift or anything, he said I just pulled the **** out of him. His Cobra was stock he said. I was really surprised that I pulled him that hard. They are rated at 320hp and 320tq so I thought it would be really close, o well.
The driver was a really cool guy and all, took the loss real well. I invited him to follow me to meet up with my friends but he said he was just gonna cruise.
I also raced a friend with the modded(full exhaust, intake, short shifter, and spray but he didn't spray) 6.0 GTO and it wasen't as good for me,lol. He put 2 cars on me by 120mph, lol.

It definitly was. We also had a '94 500whp single turbo'd Supra with us, a 3??whp '93 RX7,another BPU '95 Supra, and a ZXR600(I think it was). Were all good friends(except the Cobra driver, just met him) and it just so happen that the Cobra pulled up, it was nice knowing I wasn't the slowest any more,lol.

lol. It's not the only Termis you have to worry about. My best friend has a 99 Cobra with comp cams and a few other goodies. It's not slow by any means. The only races I know of it losing were a Procharged C5 (owned by one of the guys at the WS6store), which absolutely raped it and he also lost to a supercharged Goat.

I run low 13s stock so the race was over before it begun BUT it was from a roll and 1/4 don't count at all. Last time I went to the track, on my way home I pulled up next to a 03-04 Mach 1(lots of fords in my area)and he ran a 13.8 best, like I said I run 13.3s all night, well long story short, he pulled me by 3/4 a car up to 120mph where we shut down. He wasn't stock though, I think he just kept mis shifting at the track.
