Default Mighty Jermzz goes down to a 2.6kb cobra!

Last night was a good night...bunch of cars, a stroker 2.4kb cobra, cammed 175 shot goat, me and a 2.6kb cobra.

Raced them all from about 40 (since the cops kicked us out of our race spot)

Sawed off the nitrous gto and stroker 2.4kb cobra by about 4 or 5 cars...

Next the damn 2.6kb..he was on slicks and skinnies, weight reduction, driver mod and a whole lotta boost. He wouldnt tell me how much power he made, but he said it was quite a bit over 600.

We lined up at 40, I gave three honks and we jumped on it..I immediately pulled 1/2 a car. Slam 3rd and he pulls back next to me. Untill he shifts then I get about 1/4 car on him. Now were both jammin in 4th, and I have to shift before him (damn 4.11s) When I shift he pulls back his 1/4 car and pulls another 1/4 ahead of me....I was pegged in 5th for a while...prob going 180.. by the time I let off his back bumper was at my front fender..

I couldnt believe it!!! I lost!! Damnit!!! oh well, can't win em all, Rich is a really cool guy. I'm gonna try to get a video from my friends phone who was in the car, but I dunno when.

I wonder what's gonna happen when I come out spraying a 150 shot next month?????????

Check your spark plugs.
Your car is probably a V6.
Are you sure you were racing?

Just kidding man. Good death, and like others said, Nitrous, nitrous, nitrous...

atleast its a worthy death, but a cool person...if he was a dick, it would be a different story

My buddy with his C6 Z06 that made 496rwhp, raced another one of his buddies whipple cobra....put down 620rwhp on pump gas...they went from a roll roll untill about 150....and the whole entire way, they were dead even...we video taped it, but cant figure out how to get it off the cell onto the computer.

Yup. Near unbeatable for most street cars.

Do it. Do it.

Just thinking about big cubes and nitrous makes my dick tingle.

We were dead even up to 150. It was after that when he started to pull. I think my 4.11's hold me back after about 140 or so. If I had 3.73's it would pull harder up above 140.

I did have a 160lb passenger too, and he was alone. That may have made a difference too.

Cant win em all, no way. These big blowers breath really well up top. 150 shot will take care of it.

Damn get some nitrous A.S.A.P. Why not a 200 shot? The torque from a 200 shot is like insta-whiplash for your passenger, it's almost funny.

Nice loss. but you should know that no H/C/I 427 is complete without a 200 shot on top.
