The KB car was being datalogged at the time, and IT WAS NOT CLUTCH SLIP, as it would have shown up in RPM flare, which did not occur. The boost gauge doesn't lie, and boost dropped off 5-7psi when we heard the superhcharger note drop off. But hey, I don't own a Cobra. Therefore someone who lives over 1000 miles away can better account what happened while I was riding in the car Maybe I should be a moderator over on SVTP? Finally, just because I don't own a Ford doesn't mean I don't know anything about them (in fact, it might be the reason why I don't own one ). Judging by some of the Cobra owners' post count here, I'd venture to say I've got more seat time in that Cobra then they have in the their own car, as they can't seem to get away from the keyboard!

Then you'd be wrong again. Yep...I average 8 posts per day.
Sure it a LOT huh? Maybe you should spend a little more time
under the hood since you don't seem to have those cars of yours
running very well.

Agreed 100%. There is ALWAYS a guy out faster than you, I just hope I dont run across him, but JUST in case I do, I respect every race as if this is that guy and have some fun! Now some times when I hang with friends, EVERYONE else makes my car out to be more than it is. Im like " its a fat pig with a little motor and a big super charger, that moves pretty good." Thats it.

Word...

I've beat Texas's quickest/fastest all motor 6speed C5 from a roll 4 out of 5 times, doesn't mean I'm faster just means I'm lucky.

I'm just playing man,

I know they can slip, mine slips every time I hit it, but trying to convince some people that there is a logical reason a cobra didn't put up a better fight on this site is useless.

Before long some dumbass will post about how termn8r could beat them both on motor.

That C6 ate his lunch, but it should be the other way around when the Cobra gets his issue resolved

Its funny how the vettes power is laid out on the table in the vid, but no details on the stang. And then to top it all off an excuse at the end of it.

Personally, that irritates me. I'm like 99FRC. I dont mind losing at all, no matter what it is. And if I lose, unless the guy is a complete *****, then i have made a new friend thats obviously serious about the same things I am.

Some people and thier egos.....
