Guys, that's as close as i could come to a race with him. We have several minutes of footage with him doing fly-bys and ducking in and out of traffic. The fly-by he did was started about 12-15 lengths behind me. I kept trying to get him next to me and go from even, all i could settle for was to chase him from behind, and when i was pulling up there at the end, he hit it again. So i hit it again and passed him and he took the next off-ramp at a high rate of speed. Awesome car, just wanted an even race from the start. I couldn't believe it when i pulled on him. Maybe he was in 6th gear or something??

Nice car. I think you could have taken him if he was stock or intake/exhaust but no more than that. I have trouble beating them up top with more than a couple bolt-ons

When he came up on us the first time, we got a look at him. He looked 30-35ish, middle eastern descent possibly.

Looked like 2 slow fords playing with each others peters. A) Didn't you know the Ford Gt is a giant turd that cost way to much and likes to break? B) Didn't you know that 03 cobra can make ton's more power? C) Where's the boosted ls-x or 2jzgte to blow those piles of junk out the water?

Nice clean cobra, but didn't your daddy tell you it's bow tie til I die?
Or Poncho in this case

I think that's the area. We were coming back from Frankenstein's in Katy. I'm not too familiar with Houston.

Yeah, I know there are cops on the Katy freeway, but the new freeway is so damn wide that I can't help nailing it here and there.
