yesterday coming home from powerhouse where my camaros at, i run into a blue skittle with two young guys around my age inside. I was ahead of them, and saw them in my rearview mirror tearing *** to catch up to me, so i oblige by slowing a bit.
it was 55 degrees out in chicago yesterday, just warm enough for me to feel safe "broke traction too many times in cold to even think about getting stupid to show up to kids in a skittle".
they get side by side with me, smile and nod, and boom they go. i hang even with them, nose at their mid car, due to them going without honks, and reel them in real slow before passing them, end up ahead by a car at about 95mph when i let off, satisfied i had won.

guess what accompanied there loss?
the ricer fly by.
stock 2000 TA, with Ttops off and windows down, A4
i caught up with them at the light, and they were trying to mess with 03-04 cobra, black.
some people just dont learn.

 

Good Kill Neons suck

 

hit the nail right on the head.

 

What should a 04 COBRA (Stock) run in the 1/8th?

 

i dunno i dont really do 1/8 mile much or ever. but i got a feeling your gonna tell me

 

No I realy would like to know what they should run. Stock

 

i would think mid 6's but i dont know. i watch 1/4 mile races at the track.

 

6's in the 8th? HOLY **** LOL

 

yea i doubt that i was thinking low 8's

 

yep yep

 

Low low 13's high 12's=low 8's maybe a high 7 dunno really don't keep track of 8th mile times.

 

a high 7 is usually a high 11 or low 12 secons pass

 

like i said i dont watch 1/8 mile races. i would think that u would half the time since its half the track distance but most cars make theyre power at higher speeds so maybe high 7s might be right. i know that theyre a high 12s car. 03-04 cobras r no joke.

 

Its not where they make their power, its where they can put the power down with adequate traction.

It takes a lot longer to travel the first half of the quarter than the second half due to acceleration. You have to start moving and accellerate through the first 8th mile, then the second 8th mile is just building upon the speed that you have already built up through the first.

 

Then it was the driver. It was running 9.1

I thought it should of been alot faster

sorry for the thread jack.

 

good kill..

and a cobra should get a high 7 in the 1/8.. i run a 8.14 with a small stall and street tires.

 

wow that is really sh*tty

 

id say a cobra should be around your time. being a stalled auto you probably 60 ft. better than a cobra. and the cobra should come around you on the other end.

 

by the way o/p sorry for the thread hijack

 

kinda looks like a older mustang in ur sig. is that the same mustang that u ran?
