run in with a 03-04 cobra and a new evo

**slplswon** · 03-23-2008, 09:33 PM

was on the interstate just cruising along about 65 and im just listening to the radio and not paying attention and out of nowhere an 03-04 cobra pulls up on me....

he gets beside me and i hear him gear down...well trafic is pretty congested so not really alot of room to play...we cruise side by side for about a mile doing about 55....finally we have a nice lil stretch of road....so im getting ready to honk and he starts...1...2....3..he jumps out about 1 1/2 cars on me and he holds me there until about 65-70...then i start pulling...a pretty hard pull....let off about 110 and i had put about 3 cars on him...not sure of mods but it definately was a stout one cuz i only pulled about 3 cars on the 125 shot

well i take my exit about 25 min later and stop off to get something to drink...i park next to a silver Evo...go inside and get my drink and the driver is still sitting there...well i start up the car and i see him look over and smile...i pull out and he follows...

we just happen to get a stoplight together...and im thinking great an awd from a dig and me on street tires....i hear him start to stall up the car so i do the same...light turns green and he pulls away by about 3 cars...i dont really spin cuz i baby it...lay into it about 15mph and and slowly stop his pull...has about 3 1/2 on me by about 35 mph and i know the car will break loose at 35 on the nitrous so i hold out until 45 and i flip the switch and car breaks traction a lil bit but not bad enough for me to let out of it..i stay in it and freight train by him letting off about 75MPH and about 4 cars....

we get the next light together and he tells me its got exhaust/CAI and a tune..

nice kills. makes me want nitrous more. lol. I like the one with the evo. I like running evos. I can get them on the highway but from a stop it's kinda hard to keep up with a bad start

ive got my launch down pretty good..i can pull a 1.9 60ft on street tires pretty consistantly...these cars love the juice!!!this is my 2nd nitrous ls1 and it pulls very good on the 125 shot

**Danger731** · 03-23-2008, 09:59 PM

good kills, I am using a 75 shot. I want to check my A/F before going to 100-125.

**slplswon** · 03-23-2008, 10:01 PM

ive always ran 100 wet shot without tuning or upgrading anything...decided to tune mine before stepping up to 125 though...lots of ls1 guys run 100 shot with no tuning...

Spray is a great insurance policy. Nice kills, well written.

Good kills! I bet the 03 driver was a little surprised, prolly doesn't know he got SPRAYED.

actually, he probably thinks he got sprayed. if someone out runs me, first guess would be spray.

nice kills.

I was thinking the same thing--

When you say "new" Evo...did you mean the brand new Evo 10?

as opposed to curved horsepower?? i dont get it. I dont have to resort to name calling and bashing, whats with the insecurities? thats not what im here for. I dont know if it was bad upbringing or the neighborhood you grew up in, but you have some issues you need to deal with. There is no need to get all defensive.

and FYI, if your car is ONLY making 414rwhp, then your going to outrun me with the aide of weight. Not "straight" horsepower. or is your horsepower somehow more powerfull than mine?
