well i had a good night a t the track. first up was a little import, i have no clue what it was. i should have whopmed it, but since this is my very first time in the cobra, i left the box in a cloud of smoke. i ended up beating him 13.57 to 15.51. pathetic i know but its my first time. next up was a turbo z/28, this thing was trouble, he beat me 12.90 to 13.14. i got out of the box ok i just need to figure out where it wants to be shifted. on stock tires, it seems to like a 3000 rpm launch while feathering the clutch. next up was my cousin (m3). in our first encounter, he crushed me, 12.83 to 14.49. ok i missed third. he said normally, thats that, but since its a new car, we could go again. so we lined back up about 12 minutes later, and we went. he got me. 12.69 to 12.93. yeah im upset about it but the butthole had drag radials. aw well. what are ya gonna do. but on an interesting note, he will not race me on normal street tires. hmm, wonder why... anyway, im gonna race him again when i have half the money into my car he has into his. and in my last race of the night, i got to go against a pure stock 02 camaro ss. i killed him. 12.80 to 13.37. all in all, i had fun. and thats what really matters</P>

good racing man... treat that 03 cobra good!... oh F that! run the s**t out of her ! LOL<IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0">

Ride her hard and put her away wet!

rob sorry man, i was lookin forward to u kickin his @ce, but im sure once u charge that 03 ull be sweepin that m3

Charge? If you mean supercharged, they come from the factory that way.

ya but doesnt the ashton have more LB gain? neway he can still get juiced or use radials..

lightning pulley and some mickeys and play with all

maaan. You ran 12.9s stock? Musta been perfect racing atmosphere. My stangs best time so far is a 14.3. I cant seem to get the rubbers to stick to save my life. Ill admit it, I thought I was good at draggin, that was with autos in ol' muscle cars. But sheesh, standards are a whole other world.

brocklee, hes running a cobra, ur running a GT, big difff... not sure if you notice but you compared the two times

rob, seems you were getting better through the night......w/some drag radials (and more practice) on you should do even better.</P>


12.80 is great....good job!</P>

12.8 + ~4.0 = me <IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0">

If I launch my 96 cobra at 3000 rpms with street tires I just fry them off. I can hardly lauch at 1500 without burning them all the way down the track. And thats before I put my supercharger on. You like have the best street tires ever.

my tires are crap, the skid around every turn.</P>


not when i get my 18" steedas tho.</P>

not if you haze the clutch like i do. but if you drive it like me, you'll need a new clutch around 10,000 miles. i launch it at 3000 and haze the clutch till it hooks up, then im gone. i dont just dump it and stand on it. if you can find the right mixture of clutch and gas, you'll have a quick start that keeps the rubber on your tires. </P>
