Great Thread.. Fun times sounds like.. had fun in the Val... This is the way racin should be.. i would have gave the Term the win.. before the runs due to having a bud with one..

Z06 is fast but the pullied (Fav Stang ever.. if i ever did own one it would be a 03-04 T ) Term ..even converts are fast.. i put down 386/386 and have my freind makes 413/440 with the same pullied vert Term.. and were Dead *** even from a roll .. i cant pull a inch.. but neither can he

BTW "Best Race Thread 2008"


P.S. Props to Both Drivers.. and how bout the rest of them there vids

the vette owner isnt makin excuses you jack *** fanboys are. if it had been the other way around and the cobra got pulled by a car it would have still been a good race and props to both drivers. you wanna watch the video again?? the vett got pulled get over it. what is this and what if that. WHAT IF WHAT HAPPEND HAPPEND AND THE VETTE GOT PULLED.
no disrespect at all to the vett owner. sweet car good races and good fun.
Some of you guys take these threads way too seriously. I was just throwing out some constructive criticism learned from experience. I didn't say anything other than the Vette would have dug better with the drag radials.

Good race. However it really does come down to driver alot as some of the vids of your 06 Vette in your sig prove. And yes tires to play a huge role, I know the Vette got the jump (but from experience) the Z will still be spinning going into 2nd, and we all know spinning is not winning.

Im not defending the Vette at all, Ive had a Cobra so I know plenty about them and still do like them..

Again props to both of you.

OK he pm'ed me the video. I checked it out and I think its cool so I'll go ahead and link it here

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwFYZSai1WA

I think he forgot a few runs in the video, like the first dig (the one I posted up), and the first race from my POV (First Gear 30 roll, roasted the tires in 1st, then wheel hopped all the way through 2nd). but other than that it was cool. Majority of the runs were done from a 30-35 mph roll (Started in 2nd gear because first would roast), 1 was done from a 40 (at my request). All had the same outcome, I slightly pull at first, but he pulls 3rd and 4th.

LOL at us saying "No heat up for him... what a bitch." That was our second dig race.

My bogged launch = Fail..... but not like it would've mattered anyways. Good runs bro.

BTW send me all the pictures you took of my car, I wanna toss em up on the myspace.

Z06 was simply over powered,the cobra was pulling pretty hard. Nice cars and cool people make for a fun night.
