I hate to see Cobras lose. UNLESS they are racing me..then its ok.

I only raced one once and I was in my Z06 and I beat it..MOSTLY cause the guy driving shifted early and it was a vert.

WOW looks like a nicely modded evo to me. Especially to beat you on the interstate.

I know...but I beat him too easily. I beat him like I would be a regular 05 GT. Cool guy though. I was stock also. If he had been a good driver it would have been close.

yeah u can hear his turbo and how rediculously slow he shifted, and i still couldnt pull ahead of him. actually if u look closely at the vid and see the space in between the back of his car and my side view mirror, u can see that i was BARELY pulling up on him. i wish i knew the guy, his turbo sounds sooooo sweet.

on our second race, we actually did the 3 honk thing. i got about a half car length jump on him from the third honk. after a couple seconds he steadily pulled up even with me but then we came up on some cars and we had to let out. needless to say it was a great way to start a weekend beach trip!
