the reason i say it is simple. a friend of mine with the black 03 with the cobra r hood put down 480whp. it took him till 140 to pull me. the black 03 is faster than the vert. he suddenly starts putting cars on you? you have more power than i did with this setup.

this is why i say you got sprayed. you know what to do now. when you get the parts. bring me the car.

Uhhhhh, it's not a GT if it's a Roush, unless the guy threw a roush blower on a GT.



Congrats OP, you did pretty well.


FYI a 75 shot wouldn't have made a big enough difference to sway the result of that race. Small shots are great for turbo cars, not much of an effect on N/A or blower cars.

its basically a stock mustang gt with a body kit and IRS. thats about it. thats why i added gt in there. lol. stagd 3 is the blower, in which case i would have lost badly.

let me play the dumby role here like they did in my thread. that was fake! there's no way you could hang with a modded cobra! your car is t3h slow!

silly forumers don't understand how fast these turbo lsj'a are from a roll.

anyways, are you still running the stock clutch, it sounds like it's slipping like a ****. and the cobra did look like he sprayed right before you let off, he probably felt bad for not being able to make your little cobalt look bad and had to crack the bottle to prove self worth

Or maybe gearing/aerodynamics/brute power take over at higher speeds?

I'm not trying to say his Cobalt is slow, but it's the same thing when I run a C6 Z06. They're more aerodynamic and better geared on the highway so as speeds go up I pull less and less.

03/04 Cobras do not do well down low, 3rd gear on up an 03/04 Cobra is a beast though.

My Cobalt felt very strong through 1st and 2nd gears while it started to lack in 3rd and 4th, my Cobra feels rather pathetic through 1st and 2nd gears compared to 3rd and 4th.

ok. I just watched the video again too. Does everyone else miss the Cobalt hitting the rev limiter? Thus the Cobra's going to suddenly look like it's pulling harder...

That's because the balt let off. You can hear the Cobalt decelerating because he let off the gas.

So Area, you're saying the cobra must be spraying to pull the OP? How much power is the OP laying down and has he been to the track or is this just more speculation like the last time we talked about yours and elite's cars? A 75 shot + 2.8 cobra is a mid-high 12X trap car, just to clarify.

He is not making anywhere near the limits of the 259 on a stock lsj. He'd decorate his garage floor with oil.

Details? I just find it staggering that he posts about getting pulled by an n/a TA from a 40 roll and it's impossible that this cobra wasn't on the juice when he got the jump on the cobalt's shift and the balt bounced off the limiter a shift later. A little inconsistency imo. What did the TA have a flux capacitor?
